The counters measure the version you’ll paste, invisible characters and all. Your caption stays on your device.

Why your gaps disappear

Instagram tidies whitespace when it saves a caption, so blank lines between paragraphs can get squashed and a carefully spaced caption turns into one block. A line that only contains spaces still counts as blank, so pressing the space bar doesn’t help.

What the tool does

  • Removes spaces at the end of each line.
  • Puts a single invisible braille-blank character (U+2800) on each empty line, which the app treats as content rather than whitespace.
  • Drops empty lines at the very start and end.
  • Leaves your words, emoji, hashtags and mentions exactly as they were.

Caption habits that help

  • Lead with the reason to keep reading. Only the first line or two shows before “more”.
  • Short paragraphs of two or three lines read better on a phone.
  • A few precise hashtags at the end, after a gap, rather than a wall of them.
  • One clear ask: save it, send it to a mate, or book via the link.

FAQ

About this tool

Does it work for TikTok captions?
Yes. Switch the platform at the top and the counters use TikTok’s limits.
Is my caption sent anywhere?
No. Everything happens in your browser.
Will the invisible character show up?
It renders as a blank line on Instagram and TikTok. Some other apps may show it as a small space.
