Frequently asked questions
- Why is the limit 280 characters?
- X (formerly Twitter) sets the default tweet length to 280 characters for standard accounts, doubled from the original 140. Long-form posts on premium tiers exceed this but threads remain the most reliable cross-account format.
- How does the splitter avoid cutting words in half?
- Splits happen at sentence or word boundaries before the character limit so no word is broken across two tweets. Numbering like "1/8" is included in the character count for accuracy.
- Are emoji and links counted correctly?
- URLs are shortened by X to a fixed 23-character display length regardless of the original URL, and many emoji count as two characters because they are stored as surrogate pairs. The splitter accounts for both behaviors.
