Hi With Emojis, Repeated

Hi with emojis, one hundred copies below, 1,499 characters as plain words. Put a real emoji in the seed box and the block rebuilds around it, but an emoji changes what a text message costs.

Repeat it 100, 1000 or 10,000 times

100 copies — 1,499 characters.

The block is words, not pictures

The phrase “hi with emojis” is fourteen plain characters, and that is what the wall below repeats: 1,499 characters at 100 copies, 14,999 at 1,000 and 149,999 at 10,000. This site carries no emoji grids. Pick the emoji you want from your own keyboard, drop it into the seed box beside the word, and press a count – the block rebuilds as you type.

What one emoji does to a text message

A text message written in the standard GSM alphabet holds 160 characters in a single message, and 153 per part once it has to split. A single character outside that alphabet, which is nearly every emoji, switches the whole message to a wider encoding, and the limits drop to 70 characters in one message and 67 per part. Most emoji then count as two of those, because they sit above the basic character range.

In practice, “hi” a hundred times is 299 characters and two parts. The same hundred copies with one emoji added to each is several times that number of parts, for a screen that looks much the same. It only matters if you are billed per message, but then it matters a lot.

Where the encoding is irrelevant

Anything sent over the internet rather than the phone network just counts characters against a message cap and charges nothing either way. Discord stops a message at 2,000 characters, so a hundred copies of a short greeting goes in one message and a thousand copies does not, emoji or no emoji.

Other counts and other greetings

The plain version is on hi, and the iPhone notes are on hi iphone. The same treatment for a different phrase is on i love you with emojis. All of them are listed on the repeat text hub.
