Captions that keep their structure
Long captions read better in short paragraphs. PostCraft lets you write and preview the caption with its line breaks, and its Instagram version moves every hashtag into a separate trailing block below a few spacer lines, so the caption itself stays readable and the tags stay out of the way.
Bold and italic text for Instagram
Instagram captions and bios accept Unicode, not rich text. Select a word or phrase in PostCraft and click Bold or Italic to convert it into Unicode styles that paste into Instagram and display on iOS and Android.
Check length and hashtags before you post
Instagram allows up to 2,200 characters per caption, and only the first line or two show before the more link. The readiness check flags captions that are running long and shows your hashtag count, so the hook lands in the first line and the caption fits.
Frequently asked questions
How do I add line breaks to an Instagram caption?
Write the caption with blank lines between paragraphs in PostCraft, check the Instagram preview, then copy it and paste it into the caption field. Avoid trailing spaces at the end of a line, which can cause Instagram to merge paragraphs.
What is the Instagram caption character limit?
Captions can be up to 2,200 characters. In the feed, Instagram shows roughly the first 125 characters before truncating, so put the hook first.
Where should hashtags go in an Instagram caption?
Either works, but a separate block at the end keeps the caption clean. PostCraft can move hashtags from your text into a trailing block automatically for the Instagram version.
Can I use bold text in my Instagram bio?
Yes. Unicode bold and italic characters work in bios, captions and comments. Keep your name and key search terms in plain letters so Instagram search still matches them.
