Yelp outages and problems
In the past 24 hours, 24 user reports came in for Yelp. 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 30 minutes ago. That stays below our outage threshold, so it doesn't count as downtime.

How to fix Yelp not working
Yelp 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 yelp.com over your own connection, right now. Nothing is sent to us or stored.
Reload and restart
Reload the page (Ctrl+F5, or Cmd+Shift+R on a Mac), or fully close the app and open it again.
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 Yelp.
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 Yelp is down: what to use instead
- Google Maps Use it to check hours and reviews when you need a fast read on a business.
- TripAdvisor It helps for restaurant and attraction research when you want traveler photos and feedback in one place, especially for spots outside your usual route.
- Apple Maps Reach for it on an iPhone to get directions and a phone number.
- Call the business If you already have the number, call to confirm a table or an appointment and skip the app entirely.

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