Understanding Facebook connection and service problems
Facebook sign-in, feed loading, posting and account restrictions need different evidence.
The checker above requests facebook.com from eight configured locations and shows the responses and measurement times. Compare those observations with the actual Facebook action that failed. A homepage response alone cannot verify an account, app workflow or transaction.
Facebook status information and official help
Open facebook.com
Compare the website entrypoint with your browser or app. This website link is separate from a provider incident dashboard.
No separate incident dashboard is linked here. Use the official product help and any current announcements it links to; this does not mean that no outage is possible.
Where to report problems with Facebook
Meta business-service status is not a complete consumer Facebook outage dashboard.
Open Facebook help / reporting. Use the contact, technical-help or account route described there. Sign-in, support entitlement and available channels can vary; a public community discussion is not a private support ticket.
Details to include in your report
Affected feature, page/post reference, app/browser version and error time with personal details removed.
Attach the checker’s downloaded JSON if it helps show the hostname, regional responses and original timestamps. Describe what happened in your browser or app as well. A report sent to WebsiteDown.org is not automatically forwarded to Facebook.
What to check when Facebook is not working
These are troubleshooting comparisons, not claims that Facebook is currently experiencing a particular incident.
Start with the action that failed
Compare a public page with your signed-in feed and note whether one post or the whole interface fails.
Narrow down the affected service
Use Facebook Help for technical reports and account recovery; do not infer a consumer outage from a Meta business-only status component.
Read the actual checker response
A 403 or 429 means the host answered but refused or limited that request. A timeout gives no HTTP response. Keep those outcomes separate and check the available-region count before treating the result as broad evidence.
How to check if Facebook is down
- Capture the original failure. Save the exact action, error and time before refreshing. Preserve drafts and check whether a submission already completed.
- Run the facebook.com check. Compare each response, the measurement time and available locations. A repeated click can reuse a cached observation.
- Compare the relevant provider information. Open Facebook help and use its guidance or announcements for the exact feature. Do not treat a general homepage as an outage bulletin.
- Test one useful difference, then report. Compare another permitted session, network or service component using the tailored checks above. Send the result and the actual app error through the reporting route on this page.
If Facebook Is Not Working Only For You, Start Here
Use these local troubleshooting steps after the down-check workflow when Facebook seems broken only for you. This section focuses on app, browser, account, and network fixes.
1. Compare browser sessions
Open facebook.com in your current browser, then test in a private window or second browser. If only one session fails, compare its account, cookie and extension context before assuming the entire service is unavailable.
2. Preserve a working account session
Keep an existing working session and preserve unsaved work. For a sign-in failure, use the official account-help route. Avoid repeated password or security resets until you confirm this is not a broader Facebook issue.
3. Compare permitted network paths
Compare Wi-Fi and mobile data only where you are permitted to do so. Keep required VPN, proxy and security controls in place, and record which network fails.
4. Capture support-ready evidence
Save timestamp, device, network type, exact error, final URL, and status code. Use the check workflow above before contacting Facebook support.
Frequently asked questions about Facebook problems
Is Facebook down, or is the problem limited to one feature?
Run the facebook.com check and compare its original timestamps and responses with your actual error. Facebook sign-in, feed loading, posting and account restrictions need different evidence.
Where can I report a problem with Facebook?
Use the official help/reporting resource linked above. Meta business-service status is not a complete consumer Facebook outage dashboard.
What should I check first when Facebook is not working?
Compare a public page with your signed-in feed and note whether one post or the whole interface fails. Use Facebook Help for technical reports and account recovery; do not infer a consumer outage from a Meta business-only status component.
What information helps Facebook support investigate?
Affected feature, page/post reference, app/browser version and error time with personal details removed.
