Is Facebook Down Right Now?

If Facebook 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 Facebook's technical team is already aware and working to resolve it. You can check Facebook'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 social media.

To determine if the issue is with your device or a Facebook 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 Facebook from a different device or network. If the issue persists across multiple devices and networks, it's likely a Facebook service issue. If it only affects one device, the problem is likely with that specific device or its configuration.

You can receive notifications about Facebook outages in several ways. Follow Facebook'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 Facebook status changes in your area. Additionally, tech news websites and social media monitoring services often report on major platform outages.

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