Question 1

Why are my messages not sending or calls dropping?

Accepted Answer

Messaging outages are caused by backend server failures, overload, or problems with voice and video infrastructure that can fail independently of text. They can be global or regional. Check this page to see if others are reporting the same issue right now.

Question 2

Which messaging services does DownStatus monitor?

Accepted Answer

DownStatus tracks major messaging and communication apps including Microsoft Teams, Facebook Messenger, Google Meet, Line, KakaoTalk, and others. The full list with live status is shown above.

Question 3

How do I tell if a messaging app is down or it's my connection?

Accepted Answer

Try another app or website on the same network. If everything else works but one messaging app won't connect, and others are reporting problems here, it's a platform outage. If nothing connects, the issue is your own internet.

Question 4

What should I do during a messaging outage?

Accepted Answer

Switch to an alternative app or channel for anything urgent. Messages that appear stuck often send automatically once the service recovers, so avoid sending the same message many times. Check the platform's official status page for an ETA.
