How Can I Format Text?

SmarterQueue doesn’t include built-in formatting options like bold or italics directly in the Post Editor. However, you can use external tools to create formatted text and paste it into the editor:

  • How to Add Bold and Italics: Use a text generator like Italic Text Generator or YayText to create bold or italicized text. Simply type your caption, copy the formatted text, and paste it into SmarterQueue’s Post Editor.
  • How to Use Different Fonts: You can generate a wide variety of fonts using tools like Instagram Fonts. Copy the text in your desired font and paste it into the Post Editor.

💡 Tip: Always preview your posts to ensure the formatting looks correct across all platforms.

How Do I Add Emojis?

Emojis add fun and humor and can increase engagement in your social media posts. Here’s how to add them in SmarterQueue:

  • Using SmarterQueue’s Built-In Emoji Keyboard

    In the Post Editor, click on the 😀 icon to open the Emoji Keyboard and select emojis to add to your post.

    Using the System Emoji Keyboard

    You can also use your computer’s built-in emoji shortcuts:

    • Mac: Press [Control + Command + Space] to open the emoji palette.
    • Windows 10+: Press [Windows + . (Period)] to open the emoji keyboard.

  • Copying Emojis from the Web

    If you prefer, you can also copy and paste emojis from websites like GetEmoji.

💡 Tip: Different platforms may display emojis slightly differently, so preview your post to see how they will appear.

What Are The Text Limits For Each Platform?

Each social media platform has different text limits and formatting options. Here's a breakdown:

    Character limit: 2,200

    Hashtag limit: 30 hashtags (including those in the first comment).

  • Facebook:

    Character limit: While it technically allows over 60,000 characters, this is more than sufficient for any post, so you won't need to worry about hitting the limit.

    Line breaks: Facebook only allows single blank lines.

    Character limit: 1,500

    Line breaks: TikTok removes line breaks in the final post, making all text one continuous paragraph.
