## Review summary

Users love Word Counter Tool for its simplicity, reliability, and ad-free, free access. It provides accurate word counts for writing tasks and is handy on the go for meeting platform limits. The main drawbacks across reviews are that it only counts words (and sometimes sentences) and does not count spaces or characters, and that external posting limits (e.g., 2000–2200 characters) can limit usefulness for longer posts. Overall, it's a practical, time-saving tool for word counting.
