How to fix Duolingo not working

Duolingo 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:

1. Reload and restart

   Reload the page (Ctrl+F5, or Cmd+Shift+R on a Mac), or fully close the app and open it again.

2. Try another connection

   Switch between Wi-Fi and mobile data. If it works on one and not the other, the problem is your network, not Duolingo.

3. Update the app

   Install the latest version from the App Store or Google Play. Old versions can stop connecting after a server-side change.

While Duolingo is down: what to use instead

• Duolingo web app Open the browser version when the mobile app stalls; a full outage can still block lessons and streak updates.
• Babbel Try Babbel for a structured course if you want guided lessons.
• Memrise Memrise has short vocabulary drills that fill a study break while you wait for lessons to load again.
• Anki Anki works offline, so review a flashcard deck on desktop or phone when you need repeatable practice.

Problems at the same time as Duolingo

Since 27 October, Duolingo's only spike in problem reports overlapped a spike at another service.

When several services get problem reports at once, something they share, such as a cloud host or a network, can be the real cause. Matching times alone do not prove it.

A spike is a sharp rise in problem reports from users, as the live pages showed it. Times are Central European time.

When people report Duolingo problems

The busiest hour for reports about Duolingo is 21:00 to 22:00 Central European time, and the busiest day is Tuesday.

Each bar is the average number of user reports in that hour, or on that day of the week, from 21 days of reports since 5 October 2026. The busiest bar is highlighted. Spikes in reports are left out, so one outage does not set the pattern.
