Meta Ad Preview — free online tool
You write your ad, hit publish, and only then notice the text got cut off halfway through. Now you're editing it live, hoping nobody saw the messy version. It would be nice to check first. We added a free tool that does exactly that — Meta Ad Preview — right in your browser.
What it does
You type your ad copy and instantly see how it looks in both Feed and Stories placements. As you write, it counts your characters and warns you when the text is about to get truncated, so you know what people will actually read before you ever hit publish.
Nothing leaves your device
The whole thing runs in your browser. Your ad text isn't uploaded anywhere and nothing is saved on a server. When you close the tab, it's gone. Nobody sees your draft but you.
How to use it
- Open Meta Ad Preview and type or paste your ad copy.
- Watch the Feed and Stories previews update as you type, and keep an eye on the character count.
- Adjust the text until it fits, then copy it over to Meta and publish.
It's free with no limit. There are more small tools on the Apps page.
