The excitement is palpable as America takes the reins in deciding the fate of contestants on the latest season of American Idol. With voting now open, viewers are eager to ensure their favorite contestant makes it through to the finale. Here are the three ways to cast your vote: through AmericanIdol.com/vote, via text, or on social media. Each viewer has the opportunity to vote up to 10 times for each method, totaling 50 votes for their preferred contestant.
The American Idol voting system for this year offers three options: AmericanIdol.com/vote, text messaging, or social media platforms. Participants must be at least 16 years old and located in the U.S., Puerto Rico, or the U.S. Virgin Islands to vote on ABC.com, and at least 18 years old and located in the U.S. to vote on social media.
Voting for American Idol kicks off every Monday night at the start of the East Coast broadcast and closes the following morning. Visit AmericanIdol.com/vote for detailed information on when to cast your vote each week for the remainder of the season.
There is a limit of 10 votes per contestant per method for each episode, allowing viewers to distribute a total of 50 votes among all voting methods.
To vote on AmericanIdol.com/vote, simply register on the website, sign in, select your preferred artist, assign the number of votes, and save your selections. Make sure to save your votes to ensure they are counted accurately.
For the first time in American Idol history, viewers can also vote on social media platforms.

Each comment counts as one vote, and viewers can vote up to 10 times per contestant. Participants must be at least 18 years old and located in the U.S. to vote through social media.
Text voting is another option for American Idol fans. Simply text the corresponding voting number of the contestant you wish to support to “21523.” Each night, the voting numbers for contestants will be displayed during their performances. Message and data rates may apply.
