Instagram has a global outage as users get frustrated with app crashes and glitches
Instagram, a well-known mobile photo-sharing app owned by Meta, had a major outage that prevented users from using the program’s features. Users from all around the globe poured in with complaints about online functions being interrupted, sign-in problems, difficulties, and app crashes. Users expressed their frustration with the unexpected interruption on social media, notably Twitter.
The outage first became apparent in India at 9 pm IST, according to the monitoring website Down Detector, with a notable increase in reported incidents around 11 pm.
