HOW TO COUNT NUMBER OF CHARACTERS IN A MESSAGE?
AND WHY WOULD SOMEONE NEED TO COUNT CHARACTERS? 🙂

Take a look at "Writer Plus (Write On the Go)"

Useful app to check character count for telegram messages.

Alternative app:
Character Counter

〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰
PLEASE NOTE:

① Whenever the number of characters for a NEW MESSAGE being composed exceeds 4096 characters, the message gets split and delivered as multiple messages depending upon the number of characters typed while hitting the send button.

For example, if the number of characters while sending the message is 4098, the message will be sent as two messages
(4096 characters + 2 characters).

② For a NEW MESSAGE you can type as many characters before hitting send, and telegram will split the message into as many messages as required.

③ But Telegram will not allow you to EDIT an existing (single) message or any PART of a multi-part message in such a way that it exceeds the maximum number of characters per message (4096).

Thus, WHILE EDITING, after reaching 4096 characters, character input will stop, and Telegram WON'T create another new message to accommodate any extra characters beyond 4096 characters.

④ Some characters like emojis are counted as multiple characters. For example, the normal yellow-colored folded hands emoji 🙏 is counted as 2 characters, and folded hands emoji with skin color modifier 🙏🏼 is counted as 4 characters.

⑤ Different apps available on Google Play Store count characters in different ways. The app shared above seems to count characters in a way which matches Telegram's way of counting characters. 👍🏼

⑥ In case of GROUPS, a normal member can edit their own message for up to 48 hours after sending. ADMINS with message pinning rights can edit their messages even after 48 hours (for ever).

⑦ In case of channels, admins can edit their posts for up to 48 hours.

⑧ Please note that we had shared the same tip earlier here with another app. But that app is no longer available in Play Store. In case someone still need that app, it can be downloaded from here.
