How to fix Continue with Facebook not working
Continue with Facebook is up on our end, so if it won't work for you, the problem is most likely on your side. Work through these in order:
Your browser tries to reach facebook.com over your own connection, right now. Nothing is sent to us or stored.
Sign out of Facebook and retry
Open the Facebook app. Sign out and sign in again, then return to the other app and tap Continue with Facebook. If the button still loops, force close the app or browser you are using and reopen it.
Check Facebook's official status page
The official status page or help centre can show whether a known Facebook Login problem is active. A local outage can block the button even when the rest of the app works, and one device cannot tell you if the problem is widespread; if both pages look normal, continue.
Clear the login window's cookies
Clear the login window's cookies. In Chrome, go to Settings > Privacy and security > Delete browsing data and clear cookies and site data, which forces a fresh Facebook login. On Android, open Settings > Apps, select the app you are signing into, then tap Storage & cache > Clear cache.
Remove app access in Facebook
Remove the app from your Apps and Websites list. Go to Settings & privacy > Settings > Apps and Websites > Logged in with Facebook, select the app, and remove it. Open the app again and tap Continue with Facebook to force a fresh permission screen.
While Continue with Facebook is down: what to use instead
- Email and password Use the login you made for that app before the Facebook button became your default; it works when the button fails.
- Google sign-in If you linked the same email to Google, choose that button and skip the wait.
- Apple sign-in Pick it when the app offers Apple and you used the same address there.
- Website instead of app Open the same site in a browser; a saved session or an email login can sometimes get you through when the app's login stalls.

What happens when Continue with Facebook goes down
Continue with Facebook is the sign-in option that lets you use your account on other apps and websites without making a new password. People rely on it for games, shopping, streaming and forums, so an outage can stop you from signing in or reconnecting an app that lost its session.
During an outage, the sign-in button often stalls after you tap it, or the popup closes before you can approve the connection. You may land back in the app without being signed in, see "Login failed", get "Something went wrong", or wait on a blank redirect page that never finishes. The login handoff tends to break first; other Facebook features can stay up while third-party sign-ins fail. These problems are often partial or regional, so one app or one region may fail while another works.

How we track Continue with Facebook
The status on this page comes from user-submitted problem reports for Continue with Facebook, counted in 15-minute windows over the last 24 hours. Each window is compared with the normal level for Continue with Facebook, so a few complaints on a quiet day don't trigger anything, but a sudden jump well above normal does.
When reports climb well above normal, the status here changes to partial outage or major outage and the chart moves with it. This is separate from Continue with Facebook's official status page: user reports tend to show a problem early, while the official page confirms the cause. If the two disagree, check both.
