checked responded in 128msHTTP 200

Over the last 7 days, Instagram has answered our automated checks with 100.00% availability and a typical response time of ~142 ms. No outages have been recorded in the last 90 days.

Instagram is Meta's photo and video sharing network, with feeds, stories, reels, and direct messages. Its features fail independently and the app caches heavily, so a typical incident means feeds not refreshing or uploads failing while previously loaded content still displays.

Is Instagram down for everyone or just you?

Our automated checks are reaching Instagram normally right now, and it answered our last one in 128ms. That makes any trouble you are hitting more likely to be local to your connection, account or network than a full outage, which usually means you can fix it from your end.

Measured since 2026-08-12. Windows reaching further back are averaged over the 39 days we watched, not the full period. Counts our own checks. Days Instagram reported an incident are coloured in the timeline above but do not change this figure.

What to do if Instagram is down for just you

  • Force-close and reopen the app, then check for an available update.
  • Toggle Wi-Fi and mobile data — social apps fail over between them poorly.
  • Clear the app cache (or reinstall) if feeds won't load.
  • Check whether you're logged in on another device that may have signed you out.
