Free Instagram Caption and Hashtag Helper
Tidy an Instagram caption, clean and de-duplicate hashtags, add line breaks that survive, and check length against the 2,200-character limit. Runs in your browser.
Result
Your caption appears here.
0 of 2,200 characters · 0 hashtags
How it works
- Paste your caption and, if you like, a list of hashtags.
- Choose whether hashtags go in the caption or in a block after it.
- Copy the result. Length is checked against 2,200 characters.
What it does
It strips stray symbols and duplicates from hashtags, makes sure each starts with #, keeps your line breaks, and shows the final length against Instagram's 2,200-character caption limit. Nothing is uploaded; it all runs in your browser.
Then schedule it
Paste the result into PostPublish to schedule it to your Instagram professional account, or ask your AI agent to do it.
Tips
- Put the hook in the first line; long captions are cut off behind a "more" link.
- Fewer, relevant hashtags usually read better than a long block.
FAQ
How many hashtags should I use?
Instagram's guidance on hashtags has changed over time, so this tool does not enforce a number. It shows the count and the length so you can decide.
Is my text sent anywhere?
No. The tool runs entirely in your browser.
