FAQ

iOS push body: questions

What is the iOS push body limit?

About 149 characters (1084px over 4 lines). Up to four lines (around 150 characters) show before iOS cuts the body; people must long-press to read the rest.

What happens if my notification body is too long?

iPhone lock screen still shows it, but cuts it with “…” — anything past the cut is invisible to most people.

Why does the character count change?

This screen cuts by width, not characters. Wide letters like W and M use up to four times the room of i or l, so two texts of the same length can be cut in different places.

Can I check many at once?

Yes — upload a CSV or Excel file on the Bulk page and Truncly checks and fixes every row, then gives the file back with fixes added.
