How to count?
Type or paste into the box; the counters update while you type. Check whether a blog post, assignment or application text hits your target word count.
Browser tools keep files on your device. Advanced document tools upload files for temporary server processing; the tool shows this before upload. Web lookups send queries to the server and public lookup services.
