WhatsApp Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • Cudney4MA Terence Cudney 4 MA State Senate (@Cudney4MA) reported

    It seems pretty obvious now. @Facebook owns too much of the infrastructure of the internet in social networking and messaging between its flagship product, @instagram, and @WhatsApp. And this is even more true in other countries than in the US. It needs to be broken up.

  • jamephi42904215 Josephine Sweet (@jamephi42904215) reported

    @WhatsApp No problem 👍

  • Lucifer34765392 Lucifer Morningstar (@Lucifer34765392) reported

    @WhatsApp Is it true that you will shut down everyday from 17:30 pm

  • TinasheChisang5 Tinashe Chisango (@TinasheChisang5) reported

    @WhatsApp I lost 3.8 billion for the past 24hrs. You can compensate me with 25% shareholding in Whatsapp and I’ll make sure that the App will never go down ever

  • LamranaBarrie6 Lamrana Barrie🔥☀️🌙🍎Salone🇸🇱🇸🇱🇸🇱🇸🇱 (@LamranaBarrie6) reported

    @Kamanda_Koroma_ EDSA say you only need electricity to power your phone. So with @WhatsApp @Facebook down, your phone needs no power.

    Hi @WhatsApp . I am still unable to use whatsapp since yesterday's server crash. Please fix it asap. insta and fb are working fine.

  • Fight4Tigray Fight 4 Your Freedom (@Fight4Tigray) reported

    We all freaked out right? @Facebook, @instagram, & @WhatsApp went down. Imagine having your electricity, internet, food & bank access cut for nearly a year. This is #Tigray's reality.

  • mugitunes3 mugi tunes (@mugitunes3) reported

    @WhatsApp Nooo problem

  • mediashotz mediashotz (@mediashotz) reported

    What would happen if it turned out that #Facebook, Insta, @WhatsApp went down because it was an inside job - just as a #whistleblower was about to dish the dirt? How do you make a bigger story happen to distract from a former employee alleging terrible things about your company?

  • ArsarrTiKonj Prafissar (@ArsarrTiKonj) reported

    @WhatsApp please don't fix it...
