What to do if Instagram is down

  1. Check both the app and the website — if one loads and the other doesn’t, it’s a partial outage, not your device.
  2. Restart the app and confirm your internet works elsewhere before reinstalling anything.
  3. Avoid repeatedly logging out — during an outage a re-login can fail and lock you out temporarily.
  4. Check this page — if reports are spiking here, the problem is Instagram, not you, and there is nothing to fix on your end but wait.
  5. Try the service a second way (app vs website, or mobile data vs Wi-Fi). If one works and the other does not, the outage is partial.
  6. Check Instagram’s own status channels (linked below) and their X/Twitter feed for an acknowledgement.

Is Instagram down right now?
No, Instagram looks fine — no unusual problems right now. As of 2026-10-14 00:30:26 ET there are 0 visitor reports in the last 15 minutes. Live status from itsdown.ca.
Why is my Instagram not working?
It is either a wider Instagram outage or something local to you. If the reports on this page are spiking, it is Instagram — not your device — and the fix is to wait. If they are not, work through the "What to do" steps above; most Instagram problems clear with a restart or by switching between the app and the website.
Is it just me, or is Instagram down for everyone?
Check the two signals on this page: 0 visitor reports in the last 15 minutes, and our live reachability checks. A spike in reports from across the US means it is not just you; near-zero reports usually point to a problem on your own connection or account.
How long do Instagram outages usually last?
Most Instagram disruptions are resolved within a couple of hours; larger ones can run longer. The "Recent outages" history above shows how long past Instagram outages actually lasted.
How does itsdown.ca know if Instagram is down?
Two separate signals, never mixed: reports people file here, and automated checks we run against Instagram’s public endpoints every 15 minutes. A responding website does not always mean the service works, so we show both.
