Troubleshooting

How to fix Threads not working

Threads 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 threads.net over your own connection, right now. Nothing is sent to us or stored.

  1. Force quit Threads

    Swipe the app card away in your recent apps view, then open Threads again. This clears a stuck feed or a reply that will not send. Force quit does not log you out.

  2. Update Threads

    Open the App Store or Google Play, then install any pending update for Threads. An old build can fail to load replies or post after the service changes something on its end. If no update is listed, skip this step.

  3. Sign out of Threads

    In the app, go to your profile, tap the menu icon at the top right, open Settings, then choose Account and Log out. Sign back in with the same method you used before. A broken session can block posting and loading, and this rebuilds it.

  4. Reinstall Threads

    Delete the app from your home screen or app drawer, then install it again from the App Store or Google Play. This removes the local copy and any cached data. You will need to sign in again.

While Threads is down: what to use instead

  • Instagram Use it when you want to share updates with photos, Stories, or short videos.
  • Bluesky Try it for text posts and public conversations while the app is unavailable.
  • Mastodon Choose it for community-based discussions across independent servers.
  • X Use it for short public updates, replies, and live event conversations.
Your device

About

What happens when Threads goes down

Threads is a text-based social app from Instagram where people post short updates and reply to each other. When it goes down, your home feed stops loading and new posts or replies fail to send, which interrupts casual scrolling and the work of creators who use the app to talk with their audience.

During an outage, the home feed usually stalls first: pull to refresh spins and older posts stay in place. Posting and replying often hang next, and direct messages can sit unsent with a retry option that does nothing until service returns. Problems are frequently partial, so you might load your feed on Wi-Fi while a friend on mobile data sees the same failure; regional clusters are common because reports depend on where people are and which network they use. If the trouble lasts, check the help centre at https://help.threads.net/ for login or account access questions, but this page only counts user problem reports above their usual level and does not test the service itself.

Questions

Threads FAQ

Is Threads down right now?

The status at the top of this page shows whether problem reports for the service are above their usual level, counted in 15-minute windows over the last 24 hours. This site does not ping or probe the service, so it cannot tell you if a server is down from your specific location. If other apps and websites load on the same connection but Threads alone fails, the problem is probably on the service side; if everything fails, switch to another network or device to confirm.

Why does my Threads feed say "Couldn't refresh feed"?

That message usually means the app cannot reach its servers or your session needs a refresh. Close the app from the app switcher and open it again; if the error stays, check whether the service is having a wider problem by looking at the report level on this page. Logging out and back in through your Instagram account fixes a stale token for some people.

Why can't I log in to Threads with my Instagram account?

If your Instagram login works elsewhere but the app rejects it, the issue is often a password change or a locked Instagram account. Try logging in to Instagram directly first, then return to the app; if Instagram asks for a security check, finish that before trying again. The Threads help centre at https://help.threads.net/ has account recovery steps if the problem follows your Instagram account.

Why won't photos or videos upload to Threads?

Uploads fail most often because the file is too large or the connection dropped mid-post. Check that the photo or video opens in your gallery, then grant photo access in your phone settings and try a smaller file. If the post still sits on a spinning circle, close and reopen the app, then check the report level here to see if others are hitting the same wall.

Why does Threads say "Sorry, something went wrong" when I like or reply?

That error often appears when the app cannot complete a small write action, which can happen during a partial outage or after a long time offline. Tap the like or reply again after a few seconds; if it fails twice, restart the app and test a different action, such as opening a profile or scrolling the feed. If the same error hits every action, the problem is likely on the service side.

How we track Threads

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