FAQ
TikTok caption (before “more”): questions
What is the TikTok caption (before “more”) limit?
90 characters. TikTok doesn’t publish where the feed cuts a caption. Truncly assumes about 90 characters on a phone before “more”, which is an estimate, not an official number.
Does TikTok publish where captions are cut?
No. We haven’t found an official number, so this screen is our estimate. Put the words that matter, and any paid-partnership label, first.
What happens if my caption preview is too long?
TikTok still shows it, but cuts it with “…”, and anything past the cut is invisible to most people.
Do spaces and emoji count?
Yes. Spaces and punctuation count as one character each; an emoji counts as one character here.
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.
