What is each platform's bio character limit?

Instagram allows around 150 characters, X around 160, and TikTok around 80, while LinkedIn is far more generous. These figures change, so this tool lets you set the limit yourself.

What belongs in a bio?

A bio should say what the account posts and how often, because those are what someone wants to know before pressing follow. A list of adjectives about yourself rarely persuades anyone.

No — the bios are built in your browser from written patterns and filtered by the limit you set. A language model is used only where this deployment has one, and the page states which version you are seeing.

What this is

A profile bio is the line or two that explains an account to someone who has just found it. One that works answers a single question — what do I get if I follow this — and answers it with nouns rather than adjectives. 'Editing tutorials every Thursday' tells someone far more than 'passionate creator', because the first promises something checkable.

How it works

Character limits differ: Instagram around 150, X around 160, TikTok around 80, LinkedIn considerably more. This tool discards candidates over the limit you set rather than showing them and letting the profile truncate them — a cut bio usually loses precisely the part that mattered.

Emoji cost more than one character on some platforms and are not read out by screen readers, so using them to separate phrases is safer than using them in place of words. A bio that depends on an emoji to carry its meaning loses that meaning for some of its readers.

How to use it

Say what your account is about Name the subject, not your qualities — 'video editing', not 'creative'.
Set the character limit Candidates over the limit are not shown at all.
Pick one, then add a detail of your own One specific detail makes a bio sound like your account rather than anyone's.
