Template Character Counts
Choosing a template for your messaging is easy with this character count comparison table.
Vibe users asked for it, so we counted!
Templates are organised into Vibe’s messaging categories to help you find what best suits your communication needs. Simply compare the maximum character counts to your draft message to choose a template that will display your content effectively – ensuring text is easy to read without overflow.
The font family, size, text case, and in-line editing (bold, highlight, underline) will result in varying character counts that differ from the defaults stated.
We've omitted the Insights, Retail, Media and categories from this table, as they are not generally used for messaging where character counts are relevant.
