Users of Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp have experienced difficulties accessing them due to a mass global outage.
“We’re aware that a technical issue is impacting some users’ ability to access our apps. We’re working to get things back to normal as quickly as possible and apologize for any inconvenience,” Meta, which owns the apps, said on X.
Over 22,000 people reported issues with Facebook on Wednesday evening and over 18,000 struggled to use WhatsApp, according to outage-tracking site Downdetector.
Problems with the apps were reported in the UK, parts of Europe, Asia, Australia, South America, and the US.
