Frequently Asked Questions
Is WhatsApp down for everyone or just me?
Check the status at the top of this page: we independently probe WhatsApp every few minutes from Moscow. “Down” means the problem is on the service side and affects everyone. “Up” means the cause is local — restart your router, switch DNS (e.g. 1.1.1.1), disable VPN and browser extensions.
Why is WhatsApp down today?
Typical causes: server overload, a bad deploy, DNS or SSL certificate issues, a hosting outage, sometimes DDoS. We record the downtime itself (5xx, timeouts, DNS and TLS errors) and its duration; the official root cause is published by the service.
How often does WhatsApp have outages?
Over the last 90 days our monitoring recorded 2 incident(s), with 50.68% uptime for the period. The full incident list with dates and durations is below on this page.
Why won't WhatsApp load the feed or send messages?
Partial outages — the site opens but the feed won't load, messages won't send or videos won't play — are also caught by our monitoring when the service core is affected. If the status above says Up, the cause is usually local or regional: try mobile data instead of Wi-Fi, disable VPN and clear the app cache.
What if WhatsApp won't open but there is no outage?
Hard-reload the page (Ctrl+Shift+R), try another browser or mobile data, switch your DNS server, disable VPN. You can inspect the domain with Enterno.io tools: HTTP headers, SSL certificate, DNS records and ping.
