WhatsApp users around the world are experiencing significant disruptions today as the popular messaging platform faces a global outage. Reports from users indicate widespread issues in sending and receiving messages, affecting all versions of the app, including iOS, Android, and web versions.
Users across the globe have reported being unable to send or receive messages on WhatsApp. The outage, which began earlier today, has left many seeing single grey ticks on their messages, indicating that they are not being delivered. Other Meta-owned apps, including Instagram and Facebook, are also reportedly experiencing outages.
The outage has caused major disruptions for millions of users who rely on WhatsApp for personal and professional communication. This is particularly problematic for those who use the app for business or urgent communications, as they are left without their primary messaging tool.
As of now, Meta, the parent company of WhatsApp, has not released an official statement regarding the outage. However, it is likely that the company is working diligently to resolve the issue. Users are encouraged to monitor Meta’s official channels for updates and to check platforms like Downdetector for real-time information on the outage.
In the meantime, users may want to consider using alternative methods of communication. Options include SMS, email, or other messaging apps like Telegram or Signal to stay connected during the outage.
