Is Instagram down?
These are the servers the Instagram app talks to. If they answer, the servers are reachable, but that does not prove everything inside the app is working, such as messages, feeds or logins. For in-app problems, see what other visitors are reporting below.
Instagram is a photo and video sharing app owned by Meta, known for stories, reels and direct messages.

Reports are anonymous and unverified, and each visitor can report each problem once every 30 minutes. They show how many people say they are affected, not why.
If Instagram is not loading for you
- Open the website version if the app is failing, or the app if the website is. Outages often hit only one of them.
- Check whether photos, videos or messages fail while text still loads. Partial outages are common on social platforms.
- Log out and back in, then restart the app. Clearing the app’s cache can fix a feed that will not refresh.
- Try mobile data instead of Wi-Fi, or the other way round, to rule out your network.
- Look at the company’s official support or status account on another platform for an outage notice.
