Instagram Caption Formatter
Keep your blank lines in an Instagram caption and check the character and hashtag counts against the usual limits.
What is the Instagram Caption Formatter?
This tool keeps the blank lines in your Instagram caption by placing an invisible spacer character on each empty line, so paragraphs do not collapse when you paste. It also counts characters against the commonly cited 2,200 limit and hashtags against 30. Copy the result into Instagram.
How to use it
- Write or paste your caption into the box, with blank lines between paragraphs.
- Leave the view on Formatted caption and copy the result.
- Switch to Counts and checks to see your character and hashtag totals.
- Paste the caption into Instagram and preview it before posting.
Instagram Caption Formatter — FAQ
Why do blank lines disappear on Instagram?
Instagram can remove empty lines when a caption is pasted or edited. An invisible spacer character on the empty line makes the line count as text, so the gap stays.
Are the 2,200 and 30 limits fixed?
They are the limits commonly cited at the time of writing. Instagram can change them, so check its current help pages.
Does the invisible character count towards the limit?
Yes, each spacer is one character, and the counts here include them, so you can see the total before you paste.
