Facebook, Instagram and Threads all appear to be down for a number of users Tuesday, as thousands of people report issues logging in.
According to outage tracker downdetector.com, more than 560,000 reports of problems with Facebook have been reported. The outage appears to have begun around 10 a.m. Eastern, with few reports before then.
Facebook is owned by social media company Meta. Nearly four billion people — about half the world's population — use communication apps developed by the company.
Andy Stone, Meta's head communications, acknowledged the issues on X, formerly known as Twitter, and said the company is “working on this now.”
Similar issues with Meta's other social media apps, Threads and Instagram, also spiked around 10 a.m., although not as many users have reported issues with those sites.
Users logging into Facebook on iOS devices were greeted with a popup notification saying "Session expired. Please log in again." #Facebook #Instagram #Meta
