SMS length calculator

Estimate how a message may be encoded and split into SMS segments before sending it.

Available now. This calculator works now. It runs entirely in your browser; your text is not sent to Wise Network.

Estimate your message

Type or paste your message below. The estimate uses the standard GSM-7 and UCS-2 limits; the provider and destination network decide the final count. For the rules behind the numbers, read SMS encoding and message length.

Encoding: GSM-7. Units: 0. Estimated segments: 0.

GSM extension characters use two units. Unicode characters outside the basic multilingual plane use two UTF-16 units. Messages remain in your browser.
