Always Display the Word Count in Google Docs
Google Docs has long provided a fairly simple word counting tool. The G Suite editing application will soon have a counter always visible in the lower left corner of your screen on the web.
Displaying this information is useful for users working on documents that require a minimum or maximum number of words. This feature is best suited for shorter documents, such as newspaper articles or school essays. For longer documents, such as novels or screenplays, we recommend displaying the word count under Tools > Word Count.
