Paste or type your Snapchat post to see how many characters you have used out of 250, and how many are left.
0 / 250
250 characters remaining
The count is by code points, the same as fanout uses before publishing. Snapchat's own counter may differ slightly. Details are in the character limits guide.
Snapchat is built around short video and story posts rather than long captions, and fanout keeps your Snapchat draft to a 250-character caption so it fits the format instead of getting cut off. Upload a short video, write the caption, and schedule it to post to your Snapchat Story at the time you pick. A comments inbox and analytics aren't available for Snapchat yet; scheduling and media both work fully.

fanout enforces 250 characters per Snapchat post, counted as Unicode code points. A post can carry up to 4 images.
Yes. A simple emoji is one code point, so it counts as one here. Emoji built from several parts (skin tones, flags, family emoji) are several code points and count as several. Snapchat may weight characters differently, so leave a little room if you are close to the cap.
fanout flags the post as too long for Snapchat before it publishes, so nothing is cut off silently. Shorten it, or write a shorter version for Snapchat and keep the long one for the other networks.
It is the count fanout uses when it checks a post, based on Snapchat's documented limit as of 2026-10-25. Networks change limits and count some characters differently, so treat a post within a few characters of the cap as unconfirmed until Snapchat accepts it.
