About Facebook
Facebook is Meta's largest platform and shares core infrastructure with Instagram, WhatsApp, Messenger and Threads. Its outages therefore rarely stay contained to one app.
Common Facebook problems
- Feed not loading or showing an endless spinner while the app itself opens.
- Login failures, including "Facebook Login" breaking on third-party sites and apps that use it for authentication.
- Posting, commenting or uploading images failing while browsing still works.
- Ads Manager and business tools unavailable, which is often reported separately from the consumer app.
- Cross-platform outages affecting Instagram and WhatsApp at the same moment.
Where to check officially
- Meta's official status page: metastatus.com.
- Business-specific incidents also surface in the Meta Business Help Centre.
- Our tracking supplements those with news coverage and user reports.
What to do when Facebook is down
- Check the other Meta apps. Simultaneous failures confirm a platform-level incident.
- Do not change your password during an outage, login systems may be degraded and you can lock yourself out.
- Third-party site using Facebook Login? Use an email-and-password login instead if the site offers one.
- Advertisers: pause automated campaign changes. Bulk edits during a degraded Ads Manager can fail halfway.
Frequently asked questions
- Is Facebook down right now?
- Current status of Facebook is unknown. We do not have enough recent official information to confirm the current service status. A reachable website alone does not establish service health.
- How does GlobalOutageMap track Facebook?
- We follow public news coverage and visitor reports for Facebook and combine it with GlobalOutageMap monitoring, news coverage and reports from visitors.
- Where can I see Facebook's official status page?
- The official Facebook status page is at https://metastatus.com. We show it here alongside our own monitoring, visitor reports, history and alerts.

- Is Facebook down right now?
- See the live status above. Meta's own status page is the authoritative source, though it can lag behind consumer reports.
- Why can I not log in to other websites during a Facebook outage?
- Many sites use Facebook Login for authentication. When that service is degraded, those sites cannot verify your identity even though they are running normally.
- Does a Facebook outage always affect Instagram?
- Not always, but frequently. The apps share back-end infrastructure, so core failures propagate across all Meta platforms.
