Questions, answered
Is the post preview free?
Yes. There's no sign-up and no limit: preview as many posts as you like.
Is my post sent anywhere?
No. Your words and photo stay in your browser. It keeps your words on this device, so a reload doesn't lose them. Your photo isn't kept.
Is this exactly how my post will look?
Very close. Each phone is drawn after the network's own app, and the post is cut where that app cuts it. The apps change often, though, and a narrower phone shows fewer words before “… more”.
How many hashtags can I use?
On Instagram, 5 in a post: it cut the limit from 30 in late 2025. YouTube takes up to 60 and ignores them all past that. Facebook and LinkedIn set no number, but a few that fit the post work best.
Why can't people tap the link in my post?
Instagram doesn't make links in captions work, and Pinterest doesn't in descriptions. On Instagram, put the link in your bio. On Pinterest, give the Pin its own link. Links work on Facebook, LinkedIn and YouTube.
Can Amplikite do this for me?
Yes. As you write a post in Amplikite, it shows this preview for each network you're posting to, and checks the post before it goes out.
