Is Facebook down right now?

Facebook is working

This reflects our latest automated server check together with what users have reported recently — it is a community signal, not an official company announcement.

No user reports for Facebook in the last 24 hours — usually a sign that everything is running normally.

Our automated checks run from our own monitoring server and test the public website — they can miss problems that only appear inside the mobile app or after you sign in. The status on this page also reflects recent user reports, so read it as a community signal rather than an official announcement from the company.

About Facebook

Facebook is a social and messaging service listed here (facebook.com). Messaging outages tend to be regional at first, so ask a friend in another city whether it works for them.

Fix it yourself

Five quick things to try before concluding Facebook is down.

  1. Hard-refresh the page — press Ctrl+Shift+R (Cmd+Shift+R on Mac) so Facebook loads a fresh copy instead of a stale cached one.
  2. Switch your connection — move between Wi-Fi and mobile data to rule out a local network problem.
  3. Try incognito mode — a broken browser extension or corrupted cookies can stop Facebook from loading while it works fine for everyone else.
  4. Swap the app and the website — if the app fails, try the website (or the other way round) to see whether the problem is limited to one platform.
  5. Wait it out — if our live check also fails, the fault sits on Facebook’s servers and usually resolves on its own; check back in 15–30 minutes.

Frequently asked questions

Is Facebook down right now?
Run the live check above and glance at the report graph — messaging outages show up here within minutes because so many people report them at once. If the graph is flat, the problem is on your side.
Why are my Facebook messages not sending?
First confirm your internet is actually working by opening another app. Then check whether Facebook has the permissions it needs and is updated to the latest version. A single stuck message can also block the queue — deleting it often unblocks the rest.
Facebook is stuck on connecting. What should I do?
Force-stop the app, clear its cache, and reopen it. If it still hangs, update or reinstall the app — but back up your chats first so you do not lose anything.
How long do Facebook outages usually last?
Most major messaging outages are resolved within a few hours, since these companies monitor around the clock. The report graph above usually peaks early and tapers off as the fix rolls out.
Why does Facebook work on mobile data but not on my WiFi?
That pattern points to your router or broadband, not Facebook. Restart the router, forget and rejoin the WiFi network, and check whether other apps also struggle on the same WiFi.
