Instagram is down, the social network does not work

You may have wanted to enter Instagram a few moments ago. Either to review the photos of your friends or upload an image. However, you may have noticed that the service is not available. The social network is down at the moment, so it is impossible to access right now, either through the app or the website.

Both the company's Twitter account and Facebook account are absolutely silent on the fall. And we do not expect any official report on the status of the server yet. From here, we encourage you, if you wanted to enter Instagram, do not give up and keep trying to access. From Twitter, several users comment that they are not having problems accessing the social network. This may imply that the error is due to a server saturation. Even so, several users also speculate that the reason for the fall is a series of tests on the social network.

However, you can rest assured that, through here, we will report the last hour about this fall. Follow the news to update the status of the famous social network.

The fall of Instagram

• On 01/25/18 at 7:21 PM, Instagram stopped working, preventing access to the social network server.
• At approximately 7:50 p.m., the Instagram mobile server starts working on certain terminals, according to some users. However, the web server is still down.
• From the same Instagram website, they warn of the error suffered by the social network. However, they do not report the origin of the error, and redirect us to the Facebook website.
• The map appears indicating the areas most affected by the fall. Key points include the southwestern and northeastern United States, parts of the United Kingdom, Italy, Spain, Germany, and some of the surrounding countries. In addition, the fall has also had a notable impact in some areas of Argentina and Brazil.
• A way has been found to access Instagram correctly, both from the web and from the app. For the web, we must access not the main page, but our profile. As soon as our profile loads us, the rest of the pages, except the cover, will start working. On the other hand, the solution for the app is very similar. We must access the application and reload the latest news as quickly as possible. If we have carried out this step correctly, the cover will be updated, confirming that we can access the rest of the functionalities.
• Around 9:00 p.m. Spanish time, the Instagram server is active again. Therefore, the app and the website of the social network work normally again.
