Frequently Asked Questions
How are words counted?
Words are counted by splitting text on whitespace. For Chinese text, each Chinese character is also counted separately under 'Chinese Chars'.
Will my text be uploaded to a server?
No. All counting is done locally in your browser. Your text never leaves your device, fully protecting your privacy.
How is reading time calculated?
Reading time is estimated at 200 words per minute for English. For Chinese text, it accounts for character-based reading speed.
What metrics are available?
