Frequently Asked Questions
How does the word counter tool work?
Our word counter analyzes your text in real-time using JavaScript. It counts words by splitting text on spaces, characters (both including and excluding spaces), sentences by punctuation marks (.!?), and paragraphs by line breaks. The reading time is calculated based on an average reading speed of 200 words per minute.
Is there a limit to how much text I can analyze?
No, there's no limit! Our word counter can handle large documents and texts of any length. All processing happens locally in your browser, so your data never leaves your computer and there are no server-side limitations.
Do you store the text I input?
No, we don't store any of your text. Everything is processed locally in your browser, ensuring complete privacy and security. Your text never gets sent to our servers or any third parties.
What's the difference between characters with spaces and without spaces?
Characters with spaces include all characters in your text, including spaces between words. Characters without spaces count only the actual letters, numbers, and punctuation, excluding spaces. This is useful for character-limited platforms like Twitter or SMS.
How accurate is the reading time calculation?
The reading time is calculated based on an average reading speed of 200 words per minute, which is standard for most adults reading English text. For technical or complex content, actual reading time may vary, but it provides a good estimate for most purposes.
