Troubleshooting

How to fix Facebook not working

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.

  1. Test Facebook on mobile data

    Turn off Wi-Fi and open the app again. If it loads on mobile data but not on Wi-Fi, restart the router; on iPhone, you can also open Settings > Wi-Fi, tap the info button next to the network, then Forget This Network.

  2. Force stop Facebook and reopen it

    Force stop the app from Android settings: Settings > Apps > See all apps > Facebook > Force stop. On iPhone, double-click the Home button or swipe up from the bottom and pause, then swipe the app card up before you tap the icon again. Reopen the app.

  3. Update the Facebook app

    Open the App Store and install any pending update from your profile icon. On Google Play, tap your profile icon and go to Manage apps & device > Updates available. Restart the app after it updates.

  4. Clear Facebook app data or use a browser

    On Android, open Settings > Apps > See all apps > Facebook > Storage & cache > Clear cache. If that fails, Clear storage signs you out and resets the app. On iPhone, delete the app and install it again from the App Store, or open the service in Safari or Chrome to see if the problem follows your account or stays on the device.

Error messages

Common Facebook error messages

What each message means and what to try. The wording can differ a little between app versions.

  • This content isn't available right now

    Means
    The post, photo or video you opened was deleted, or the person who shared it changed who can see it.
    Fix
    Open the profile or page and look for the post there, because a reshare may still be up. If a friend sent you the link, ask them to check their audience setting or send the file another way.

While Facebook is down: what to use instead

  • Website in a browser If the app crashes on launch or sits on a blank feed after an update, logging in through Chrome or Safari often still works, because the fault can be in the app on your phone and not on the servers.
  • Messenger app When the feed won't load but you mostly need your chats, the separate Messenger app sometimes keeps sending and receiving messages, so try opening it on its own.
  • SMS or a phone call For anything urgent, a plain text or call reaches people without going through Meta's servers.
  • Meta Status page It shows whether Meta has confirmed a problem on its side.
Your device

Fix Facebook on Windows, Mac, Android and iPhone

Facebook on Windows

Fix
Clear your browser cache and cookies, or try accessing Facebook in Incognito mode. Conflicting browser extensions can also prevent Facebook from loading.
Check
Try opening Facebook in a different web browser to see if the issue is browser-specific. You can also run a network diagnostic test to check your connection to the site.
Command Prompt
ping facebook.comTest whether Facebook's servers reply
nslookup facebook.comCheck that Facebook's DNS resolves
tracert facebook.comTrace where the connection drops
ipconfig /flushdnsClear the DNS cache, then reload

Facebook on Mac

Fix
Force reload the Facebook page or clear your browser's history and website data. Try disabling Safari extensions or content blockers that might interfere with Facebook.
Check
Check if you can access Facebook using a different browser or device on the same network. You can also use Network Utility to see if the Facebook servers are reachable.
Terminal
ping -c 4 facebook.comTest whether Facebook's servers reply
nslookup facebook.comCheck that Facebook's DNS resolves
traceroute facebook.comTrace where the connection drops
sudo dscacheutil -flushcache; sudo killall -HUP mDNSResponderFlush the macOS DNS cache, then reload

Facebook on Android

Fix
Go to your device settings to force stop the Facebook app and clear its cache. You can also check the Google Play Store for any pending Facebook updates.
Check
Attempt to load Facebook using a mobile web browser to verify if the issue is specific to the Android app. Check if other internet-dependent apps are working normally.

Facebook on iPhone and iPad

Fix
Force close the Facebook app and relaunch it, or check the App Store for any available updates. Reinstalling the Facebook app can also resolve loading issues.
Check
Open Safari and try to load the Facebook website to see if the service outage is limited to the app. Check your iOS Settings to ensure mobile data is enabled for Facebook.
Same time

Problems at the same time as Facebook

Since 5 October, all 3 of Facebook's spikes 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.

Busiest times

About

What happens when Facebook goes down

Facebook is a social network for posts, photos, videos, and messages. An outage blocks your News Feed, chats, group posts, and login, and families and businesses rely on it for messages and updates.

During an outage, the News Feed often refuses to refresh and shows old posts, while Messenger messages sit on sending and comments or reactions do not go through. Login can loop you back to the sign-in screen, and photo or video uploads stall before they finish. Problems usually start with loading and refreshing, then hit messaging and uploads; they can be regional or limited to one app while the desktop site still works. You might get a blank screen or a generic error even when your connection is fine.

Questions

Facebook FAQ

Is Facebook down right now?

The status at the top of this page shows whether problem reports for Facebook are above their usual level, counted in 15-minute windows over the last 24 hours. This site does not ping or monitor the service itself, so treat that as a signal from other people rather than a live test. If only your feed or login is failing, check the official status page listed above, Metastatus. To rule out your side, load a different site on the same device, switch between Wi-Fi and mobile data, try another browser, and sign in on a second phone; if the trouble follows one network or one device, the problem is local.

Why do my Facebook Reels or Stories keep failing to upload?

A failed Reel or Story upload often comes from a weak connection, a file format the app cannot process, low storage space, or a permission problem. Restart the app first, then try the same clip on Wi-Fi and mobile data. If the upload works in a browser but not in the app, the app cache or permissions are the problem.

Why does Facebook keep logging me out or ask me to confirm my identity?

Repeated logouts often trace back to a saved password that no longer works, a browser clearing cookies, a security check triggered by a new device, or a location the service flags as unusual. Open the help centre and review recent login alerts, then change your password if you do not recognize a session. If the loop continues in one browser only, clear that browser's cookies or try another browser.

Why won't Facebook Messenger send my messages?

Messenger can stall on sending when your phone is on a captive Wi-Fi portal, when the app is out of date, when a message includes a file that is too large, or when the app has no storage space to write. Update the app, then check whether the same text sends over mobile data. If messages send in the browser but not the app, reinstall the app after you confirm your login details.

Why is my Facebook feed blank or stuck on loading?

A blank feed often means the app failed to load data, your account hit a temporary restriction, a network filter is blocking content, or the app cannot reach its servers. Pull to refresh, close and reopen the app, switch between Wi-Fi and mobile data, and sign in on a browser to see if the feed appears there. If the browser works, delete and reinstall the app; if both stay empty, check the help centre for account status and follow the appeal steps.

How we track Facebook

The status on this page comes from user-submitted problem reports for Facebook, counted in 15-minute windows over the last 24 hours. Each window is compared with the normal level for 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 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.
