TikTok caption preview
Your clip and your caption, laid out together before you post.
0 / 2,200
Preview
TikTok hides part of a long caption behind a control, and we have not measured where. This card folds after 3 lines — that is our line, not TikTok's, so open it to read the rest.
Your images are read by this browser and never uploaded. Nothing is saved.
This TikTok caption preview puts your clip and your caption side by side. Drop an MP4 or MOV in and paste the caption; the card plays the video muted and renders the text as you type, up to the 2,200-character limit.
Nothing is uploaded. The clip is read by your own browser and played from memory, so its bytes never leave your machine — which also means a file your own browser cannot decode simply will not play here, and no card can fix that for you.
The caption limit is 2,200 characters and hashtags spend it like any other text. Captions were capped at 300 for years, so a lot of advice still quotes the old number.
The card draws no “more” boundary. The feed does collapse a long caption, but nobody here has measured where it happens, and this page will not print a number it cannot stand behind — so treat the opening line as the whole caption.
Questions
What is the caption limit on TikTok?
2,200 characters, including spaces, emoji, mentions and hashtags.
Can I preview a photo post here?
No, and deliberately: TikTok is a video surface for us, so this page takes a clip. A card offering photos would preview a post we cannot publish.
Does this tool upload my video?
No. It is read inside your browser and played from memory. Closing the tab discards it.
Why does my clip not play?
Your browser could not decode it. MP4 plays everywhere; a MOV depends on the codec inside it. The caption half of the page works either way.
