Meta Platforms’s Instagram seemed to be working again for most people after a problem stopped services for the photo-sharing platform for over three hours on Thursday, according to Downdetector.com.
The number of outages has decreased to about 400 after more than 5,000 users had trouble accessing Instagram in the United States around 2230 GMT, data from the outage tracking website showed. It also mentioned that most of the reported problems were related to login issues on the app.
Instagram and Facebook experienced an outage for more than two hours early in March due to a technical issue. There were over 550,000 reports of disruptions for Facebook and about 92,000 for Instagram at its peak.
Downdetector monitors outages by gathering status reports from various sources, including errors submitted by users on its platform.
Meta did not immediately respond to a request for comment from Reuters.
