Common reasons Instagram looks down when it isn't

What to check before blaming Instagram

  1. Close and reopen the app, then pull to refresh.
  2. Switch between Wi-Fi and mobile data — a lot of "Instagram down" is really one network.
  3. Clear the app cache or reinstall if it won't load.
  4. Compare with instagram.com in a browser to tell the app apart from the service.

Instagram status — frequently asked

Is Instagram down right now?

Instagram is up and responding in 121 ms. That reading is from itsnotyou's monitoring servers, 48 seconds ago.

Is it Instagram that's down, or is it my internet connection?

It can be either — that's the hard part. The status on this page is measured from itsnotyou's monitoring servers, so Instagram can look healthy here while your own connection is the real problem. The itsnotyou test checks both at once and returns a single verdict in about 10 seconds.

Why is Instagram loading slowly?

A slow Instagram usually comes down to one of two things: Instagram's own servers are responding slowly — itsnotyou measures time to first byte, and anything over 1500 ms is flagged as slow — or your local connection is the bottleneck. Running the test tells the two apart.

How often is Instagram's status checked?

Instagram is probed every few minutes, around the clock, from itsnotyou's monitoring servers. The verdict and the 24-hour response-time history on this page update automatically.
