Troubleshooting

How to fix FOREVER not working

FOREVER 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 forever.com over your own connection, right now. Nothing is sent to us or stored.

Check your album or story download
Try downloading a photo or video from an album you created. If that specific download fails while the website loads, the problem is likely with the storage or rendering service, not your connection. This is a quick way to confirm it is a service issue.
Force quit the mobile app
On iOS, swipe up from the bottom and swipe the FOREVER app card away. On Android, go to app settings, select FOREVER, and tap Force Stop. Then reopen the app. This clears many local glitches that cause login loops or blank screens.
Verify your upload is under 10GB
The service blocks single uploads larger than 10 gigabytes. If your upload stalls or fails, check the file size. You must split the content into smaller parts using their desktop app or the website's upload tool before trying again.
Clear your browser's site data for forever.com
Go to your browser settings, find the site data or cookies section, and search for forever.com. Remove all stored data and cookies for that domain. This fixes persistent loading errors and sign in problems caused by corrupted local storage.

While it is down

While FOREVER is down: what to use instead

Google Photos Use it as a temporary backup for photos and videos when the app will not accept an upload.
Dropbox Upload the files to Dropbox if you need to share a folder or move them between devices before the service is back.
OneDrive Keep a copy in OneDrive if you work across Windows and need the photos in a file browser.
Forever website in a browser If only the mobile app is failing, sign in to the same account in a desktop browser and try the upload there.

Same time

Problems at the same time as FOREVER

Since 9 November, all 2 of FOREVER'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.

About

What happens when FOREVER goes down

FOREVER is a US photo storage and album service at forever.com, used by families and small creative businesses to keep photos and projects in one account. An outage interrupts uploads, library browsing, album editing, and sharing or print ordering, which can stall personal projects and paid client work.

A failure can show up first as a stalled upload or a photo that never appears in the library, and the app may hang on a blank library or fail to refresh recent items. Album editing can break next, with projects that will not save or open. Sharing links and print or album orders can time out when the service has to fetch the original file. Problems can be partial or regional; the status at the top rises when problem reports sent to a public outage-reporting service go above their usual level in 15-minute windows over the last 24 hours, and this site does not monitor the service or collect those reports.

Questions

FOREVER FAQ

Is FOREVER down right now?

The status at the top of this page shows whether user problem reports for the service are above their usual level. Those reports go to a public outage-reporting service. A server check by this site does not decide the status. If the service looks broken only for you, try another network and a different browser; if the same problem follows you there, sign out and back in to rule out your account.

What should I try when the FOREVER app says a photo upload failed?

A failed upload can come from a dropped connection or an out-of-date app, so check the status at the top before you retry the same photo. If reports are above their usual level, wait and try a smaller batch; if they are not, switch between Wi-Fi and cellular and update the app.

FOREVER Artisan will not sign in to my account. What should I test first?

Test the same account on the website in a browser, then reopen Artisan and try again. If the browser sign-in works, the desktop app or your saved credentials are the likely cause; if it fails there too, the account or the service is the likely cause.

Why are my FOREVER Storage uploads stuck at the same point?

Uploads can stall when your connection drops or when a large file hits a timeout, so check if the status at the top shows reports above their usual level before you cancel the upload. If it does, wait and try a smaller file; if it does not, switch networks and restart the app.

Can I place a FOREVER album order while the site is slow?

A slow page does not mean the order failed, so check your account order history before you submit the same album again. If reports at the top are above their usual level, wait for the page to settle and retry once; duplicate orders are harder to fix than a delayed confirmation.

How we track FOREVER

The status on this page comes from user-submitted problem reports for FOREVER, counted in 15-minute windows over the last 24 hours. Each window is compared with the normal level for FOREVER, 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. FOREVER doesn't publish a public status page that we know of, so user reports are often the quickest sign that something is wrong on their side.
