Do you have problems with Facebook Messenger or Stablemates Instagram and Whats App? The good news is, it’s not you, it’s the Facebook family of apps. According to the DownDetector.com websiteThese three apps each have some problems. Instagram, for example, rose from 26 complaints at 11:47 a.m. EDT to over 120,000 complaints at 2 p.m. EDT. 70% of the complaints were related to the schedule, 16% related to the website and 13% of the complainants were unable to register.-

Facebook Messenger was tagged by DownDetector after the number of complainants rose from one at 1:09 p.m. to nearly 5,000 by 2 p.m. EDT. 48% couldn’t connect to the server, 38% couldn’t receive messages, and 12% couldn’t log in.

While the number of complaints has decreased for all three apps, the reports received by DownDetector still show user issues with Instagram, WhatsApp, and Facebook Messenger. Eventually, everything that caused the problem will be resolved and everyone will breathe a sigh of relief. Until that happens, you can check out some other social media sites (preferably one that is up and running) or you can (and that’s just a rethink) open a book!
It should be noted that all three apps are owned by Facebook.
