👥 Is Facebook Down or Having Problems Today?

About Facebook status

Facebook remains one of the largest social networking platforms on earth, housing billions of users, community groups, Facebook Marketplace, and the Meta advertising network. Because Meta services share underlying infrastructure, Facebook outages often coincide with issues on Instagram and WhatsApp.

Common outage patterns include feeds failing to load new posts, Marketplace listings becoming inaccessible, failed logins, and Ads Manager campaign reporting timeouts.

We monitor Facebook web availability around the clock and combine automated uptime data with user feedback.

How to troubleshoot Facebook issues

1. Try accessing Facebook through both mobile app and web browser (facebook.com) to isolate client-side bugs.
2. Avoid repeatedly attempting to log in during outages, as failed attempts could trigger automated security locks.
3. Refresh your feed or clear browser cookies before concluding there is a widespread issue.
4. For advertisers: save campaign drafts locally, as sessions can expire during server instability.

How do we determine Facebook's status?

The status you see is derived from two combined data streams:

• Automated health checks — Our servers perform direct connectivity and latency checks to Facebook every minute and log response times.
• Community reports — Visitors experiencing problems can report outage categories: cannot access, extremely slow, login failure, app crashes, or other.

If the number of reports in the last 15 minutes spikes significantly above the daily baseline, the status escalates to "Possible Issues" or "Outage" even if automated pings still succeed. This reflects how major outage trackers operate: web servers may reply while primary customer services are down.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why are Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp down at the exact same time?
All three services belong to Meta and share core data centers, DNS routing, and fiber-optic backbone infrastructure. Large-scale routing or network configuration issues can bring all three platforms offline simultaneously.

Why is Facebook Marketplace missing when the main feed works?
Marketplace runs on specialized commerce microservices that can be taken offline independently for maintenance or compliance updates.

How quickly is this page updated?
Automated health checks run every minute and results are pushed in real time (SSE) to the dashboard without requiring a page reload.
