𝕏 Is X (Twitter) Down or Having Problems Today?
About X (Twitter) status
X (formerly Twitter) is the world's digital town square and real-time news source, serving as the first place millions go to check whether other internet services are experiencing downtime. When X itself goes offline, users immediately turn to independent monitoring sites to verify the outage.
Common outage symptoms include timelines failing to refresh, tweets stuck in sending queues, broken media embeds, non-responsive like/repost counters, or empty search results.
We check X endpoints every 60 seconds and track community reports to deliver up-to-the-minute status insights.
How to troubleshoot X (Twitter) issues
- Pull down on the timeline to refresh; if new tweets still fail to appear, restart the mobile app.
- Open x.com in a web browser — if web access works while the app stalls, the issue is client-side cache.
- Avoid repeatedly tapping "Retry" on tweets that fail to post, as they may post multiple duplicates once connectivity returns.
- Check this status page before altering account settings or assuming your account has been suspended.
How do we determine X (Twitter)'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 X (Twitter) 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.

My post posted but is missing from my profile, what happened?
