Your caption hook appears here

💡 Caption tip: Your first ~100 chars are your hook — they show in the For You Page before "more". Lead with a question, bold claim or pattern interrupt. Add hashtags and CTA in the body of the caption.

💡 Bio tip: 80 characters is tight — about 12 words. Prioritise: what you make, who it's for, and one CTA (e.g. "↓ New video every Tuesday"). Emojis count as characters but save space visually.

💡 Name tip: Your display name can include spaces, emojis and special characters — unlike your @username. Make it memorable and brand-consistent. It appears prominently in the For You Page feed and on your profile.

💡 Comment tip: 150 characters is about 25 words. Pinning a comment on your own video acts as a second caption — use it for your main CTA, a clarification, or to boost your first comment to the top.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about TikTok character limits.

TikTok captions allow up to 2,200 characters. Only approximately 100 characters are visible in the For You Page feed before collapsing behind a "more" link. Your first 100 characters are your hook — they determine whether viewers tap to read the rest.
TikTok bios are limited to 80 characters. Every character counts — lead with your niche, what you create, and a call to action if space allows. Emojis count as characters but save visual space.
TikTok display names allow up to 30 characters. Your display name appears above your @username on your profile and in the For You Page feed. It can contain spaces, emojis and special characters unlike your @username which is limited to letters, numbers, underscores and dots.
Yes, hashtags count as characters in your TikTok caption. Each character — including the # symbol — counts toward your 2,200 character limit. TikTok allows up to 100 hashtags per post, though 3–5 highly relevant hashtags is the recommended approach in 2026.
Write your hook in the first 100 characters — this is what shows before "more". The full caption can be up to 2,200 characters, which is useful for adding context, hashtags, calls to action and keywords that appear when viewers expand it.
