Tips for better captions
Short wins. Instagram cuts captions after about 125 characters in the feed.End with one combo such as ⋆˚✿˖° or ☾ ⋆｡°✩ rather than a long row of emojis.Lowercase feels softer ; title case feels more polished. Pick one and stay consistent.Break up long captions with a text divider .
