LinkedIn outages and problems
In the past 24 hours, 55 user reports came in for LinkedIn. Counting only the 15-minute windows with a spike big enough to count as an outage, that comes to 100.00% uptime for the day.
The busiest 15-minute window had 4 reports, about 21 hours ago. That stays below our outage threshold, so it doesn't count as downtime.

How to fix LinkedIn not working
LinkedIn 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 linkedin.com over your own connection, right now. Nothing is sent to us or stored.
Check the status page and refresh
Open the official status page at https://www.linkedin-status.com to see if the service has a known outage, then hard refresh the page with Ctrl+F5 on Windows or Command+Shift+R on Mac. In the mobile app, pull down on the feed, then close and reopen it. That clears a stuck view.
Sign out and back in
Tap your profile picture in the top left of the app, then choose Sign out. On the web, click Me at the top right, then Sign out. Sign back in with your password.
Clear the LinkedIn app cache or reinstall
On Android, open Settings > Apps > LinkedIn > Storage & cache, then tap Clear cache. On iPhone, delete the app. Restart the phone, then install it again from the App Store.
Try another network or browser
Switch from Wi-Fi to mobile data, or turn off any VPN, then load the same page again. If the problem stays on one device, open a private window in Chrome or Safari and sign in; when the page works there, go to Chrome Settings > Privacy and security > Delete browsing data, then choose Cookies and other site data. If it still fails, use the help centre to report the exact symptom.
While LinkedIn is down: what to use instead
- Browser instead of the app If the app shows an empty feed or keeps signing you out, open the site in a desktop or mobile browser, because the web version sometimes loads when the app does not.
- The app instead of the browser Try the phone app when the site stalls on a spinning loader.
- Email the person directly When you are mid-conversation with a recruiter or client, use the email address from a calendar invite or an earlier email thread so the conversation keeps moving while messaging is broken.
- Indeed or the employer's careers page Many roles posted on LinkedIn also appear on Indeed or on the company's own site, where you can apply without waiting.
Fix LinkedIn on Windows, Mac, Android and iPhone
LinkedIn on Windows
- Fix
- Clear your web browser's cache and cookies, or try accessing LinkedIn using an incognito window. Disabling conflicting browser extensions can also resolve loading issues.
- Check
- Attempt to open LinkedIn in an alternative web browser to see if the issue is browser-specific. You can also use the Windows network troubleshooter to check for connectivity issues.
ping linkedin.comTest whether LinkedIn's servers replynslookup linkedin.comCheck that LinkedIn's DNS resolvestracert linkedin.comTrace where the connection dropsipconfig /flushdnsClear the DNS cache, then reloadLinkedIn on Mac
- Fix
- Clear your Safari or Chrome browsing history and ensure your browser is updated to the latest version to support LinkedIn. Disabling content blockers may also help.
- Check
- Open LinkedIn in a private window to rule out cookie issues, or check your macOS network settings to ensure your computer is connected to the internet.

- Fix
- Force stop the LinkedIn app and clear its cache in your device's application settings. If the issue persists, check the Google Play Store for any pending updates.
- Check
- Try accessing LinkedIn through a mobile web browser to determine if the outage is specific to the Android app. You can also check if other internet-dependent apps are functioning.
LinkedIn on iPhone and iPad
- Fix
- Restart the LinkedIn app or reinstall it from the App Store to resolve potential file corruption. Switching between Wi-Fi and cellular data can also fix connection errors.
- Check
- Open Safari and try to load the LinkedIn website to see if the service disruption is limited to the iOS app. Check your device's cellular data permissions for LinkedIn as well.
Problems at the same time as LinkedIn
Since 7 October, all 3 of LinkedIn'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.

What happens when LinkedIn goes down
LinkedIn is a professional network where people build profiles, follow companies, and apply for jobs. When it goes down, recruiters, sales teams, job seekers, and anyone using the app for work lose access to messages, feeds, search, and applications.
During an outage, the feed often stalls on a spinner or shows 'Something went wrong' before messaging and search start failing too. Messages sit in 'sending' or fail after you retry, and search can return no results even though the rest of the page looks normal. Job applications sometimes stop at the final submit button, while profile edits and company page updates may not save. Problems are often partial: one region or one app can fail while the rest of the service works.

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