Facebook Messenger, Instagram DMs, and Twitter DMs are down

Private messages are down on three of the most popular social networks in the world. Facebook Messenger, Instagram DMs, and Twitter DMs are down, though other functions seem to be working on those websites.

How to fix Facebook Messenger down, Instagram DMs down, Twitter DMs down

If you’re finding that Facebook Messenger isn’t working or you can’t access your Instagram or Twitter DMs, you’re not alone. Hundreds of users are reporting the same issue, so the best thing you can do is just to relax and wait for service to be restored. It appears as though Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook are all still working besides the private message functionality, so you can still get all your hot memes, you just can’t message them to anyone directly for now.

While Twitter Support spends most of its time trying to justify why one message is left on the service while another is deleted, if the outage is big enough you can keep an eye on that account to see when DMs will come back online. Also, the search function still works on Twitter, so you can see what other people are saying about it.

Weirdly, Instagram doesn’t have a great official way to see if its servers are down. Instead, you’ll have to rely on a third-party service to know when any issues with Instagram DMs down are resolved.
