# What Is The Maximum Number of Channels Supported Per App? [Channels](https://pusher.com/docs/channels) are a mechanism that lets you partition and filter data. They are simply there to help us route information to interested clients. So, **there is no restriction on the number of channels you can have in your application**.\ We therefore advise that you create as many channels as required to ensure any events you send are only received by the necessary clients. Also, a channel is not a connection and does not count towards your connection quota. See [How are connections counted?](/pusher/channels/channels/limits/how-are-concurrent-connections-counted.md) {% hint style="info" %} Still have questions?
