Check Unicode captions before publishing: practical steps, handoffs and completion checks.
Paste a complete draft
Include the opening, body, links and hashtags you plan to publish. The visible counter updates locally as you edit, so test the actual copy rather than a shortened sample.
Read the counting definition
The counter reports Unicode code points, words and hashtag matches. A joined emoji can contain several code points, while a destination platform may use weighted URLs or a different rule.
Confirm in the publishing editor
Use the platform reference as a preparation estimate and inspect remaining characters. Confirm the final draft in the connected editor because account entitlements and endpoints can change the accepted limit.
What to check in this workspace
Emoji sequences, combined marks and weighted links can be counted differently by destination platforms. Use this as a preparation check and confirm the final limit in the actual publishing editor; it does not override platform validation.

Separate preparation and workspace handoffs
| Task | Separate preparation | MeDash |
|---|---|---|
| Unicode count | Use a string-length total that counts UTF-16 code units. | Read the tool’s code-point count and check platform-specific acceptance separately. |
| Writing review | Trim all captions to one universal length. | Use labeled reference limits and adapt the message to each destination. |
Completion checklist
- Read the tool’s code-point count and check platform-specific acceptance separately.
- Use labeled reference limits and adapt the message to each destination.
