Instagram character limits

  • Caption: 2,200 characters

    Only about the first 125 characters show in the feed before “more”, so lead with the hook and keep details lower down.

  • Bio: 150 characters

    Line breaks and emojis count. Say who you help, what you post and what to do next.

  • Hashtags: up to 5

    Instagram now caps posts and Reels at 5 hashtags, down from 30. Pick the most relevant ones, not generic tags like #reels.
