FAQS

  • How long can the Title be?

    Currently, on Hopper HQ, the title character limit is set to 100 characters. We understand that this is different from posting directly through YouTube, where the limit is higher. It's important to note that YouTube has imposed this limit specifically for scheduling tool autoposting, and as a result, we must adhere to their guidelines.

  • YouTube 3-minute Shorts

    Yes, we support longer YouTube Shorts! πŸ™Œ

    Longer Shorts may not show up as Shorts within your channel page right away and you may not see any traffic from the Shorts feed yet. It will take a few weeks to update all of the systems and surfaces where Shorts are shown or recommended like channel pages, Home, or Watch Next. Find the most up-to-date information on longer Shorts.
