X (Twitter) Post Formatter

A writing desk built for X (Twitter): select words to make them bold or italic, add bullets and spacers, watch the limit gauge, and see where the feed will cut your text. URLs always count as 23 characters on X, and most emoji count as two.

Runs 100% in your browser · nothing you enter is uploaded

How to use it

  1. Write your post in the editor.
  2. Select text and use the toolbar for bold, italic, underline or bullets.
  3. Check the preview and the limit gauge, then copy the finished post.

Questions

Is my draft saved?

Your current draft is stored only in this browser (localStorage) so a refresh doesn’t lose it. Nothing is uploaded.

What is the X (Twitter) limit?

X (Twitter) allows 280 characters.

Why use Unicode instead of real formatting?

X (Twitter) strips rich text from pasted posts. Unicode styled letters are plain text, so they survive.
