Facebook, Instagram & Whatsapp Were Down For More Than Two Hours Today

Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp all experienced issues today for users worldwide. Facebook and Instagram were both inaccessible, with news feeds refusing to refresh and the main Facebook.com domain unavailable for more than two hours.

WhatsApp messages were also unable to be sent or received, and users of Facebook’s main services (Facebook owns Instagram and WhatsApp) headed to Twitter to share that they were having issues.

Messenger, Facebook’s chat service, was also down for more than two hours.

“Earlier today, some people may have experienced trouble connecting to the family of apps,”
says a Facebook spokesperson in a statement to The Verge.

“The issue has since been resolved; we’re sorry for any inconvenience.”

Facebook’s issues come just a month after Facebook experienced its worst outage ever.
