Frequently Asked Questions

Find answers to common questions about Instagram service outages and status checks

Our system monitors Instagram services from multiple global locations every 60 seconds. This allows us to provide near real-time status updates and quickly detect any service disruptions. The "Last checked" timestamp on the status page shows when our most recent check was performed.

If Instagram is experiencing an outage in your area, first confirm the outage using our status checker or by checking social media platforms like Twitter for reports from other users. Once confirmed, there's no need to report the issue as Instagram's technical team is already aware and working to resolve it. You can check Instagram's official status page or social media accounts for updates on the outage resolution. In the meantime, consider using other social media platforms or taking a break from your phone.

To determine if the issue is with your device or an Instagram outage, first check our status page or social media to see if there's a reported outage in your area. If no outage is reported, try accessing Instagram from a different device or network. If the issue persists across multiple devices and networks, it's likely an Instagram service issue. If it only affects one device, the problem is likely with that specific device or its configuration.

You can receive notifications about Instagram outages in several ways. Follow Instagram's official social media accounts, especially Twitter, for real-time updates during service disruptions. Our website also offers a notification service where you can subscribe to receive email alerts when Instagram status changes in your area. Additionally, tech news websites and social media monitoring services often report on major platform outages.

Instagram does not typically provide compensation for service outages since the platform is free to use. However, for Instagram advertisers who experience disruptions to ad campaigns during outages, Instagram may offer ad credits in some cases. These are handled on a case-by-case basis and usually require contacting Instagram support directly. For general service disruptions, Instagram focuses on resolving the issue as quickly as possible rather than providing financial compensation.
