FAQs
- Does it count spaces as characters?
- Character counts typically include spaces unless a separate “without spaces” metric is shown.
- How is reading time estimated?
- It uses a typical words-per-minute assumption. Actual reading speed varies by person and content.
- Is my text stored?
- No. Text stays in your browser.
