Frequently Asked Questions
How is the estimated reading time calculated?
It's based on an average adult silent-reading speed (roughly 200-250 words per minute), so treat it as a helpful estimate rather than an exact figure for every reader.
Does it count words correctly if there are extra spaces or line breaks?
Yes - words are counted by splitting on whitespace, so multiple spaces or line breaks between words don't inflate the count.
Can I paste an entire article to count?
Yes, there's no practical length limit - paste as much text as you need and the stats update instantly.
