Frequently asked questions

Does Word Counter save my text?

No. Word Counter processes everything in your browser; nothing is uploaded or stored.

Is there a length limit?

Practically, several MB of text. Beyond that the browser starts to lag.

Word Counter shows both counts simultaneously, so you can use whichever your target requires.

Will Word Counter work offline?
