What to check first for WhatsApp
For WhatsApp, start by separating whatsapp.com public reachability, home feed refresh, and account session. A reachable whatsapp.com does not prove every WhatsApp workflow is healthy.
- Confirm whatsapp.com reachability and compare it with Official website.
- Test home feed refresh and account session before changing account, device, or DNS settings.
- If you see whatsapp: feed works differently from posting, keep the timestamp, final URL, and failing action for support or incident review.
Official WhatsApp sources
Use these provider-controlled or provider-owned sources after the live check, especially when the verdict is mixed or the issue only affects one workflow.
Official website
Confirms whether the primary whatsapp.com web surface is reachable outside the WebsiteDown.org probe.
Meta Status
Official Meta status source for cross-platform infrastructure events.
WhatsApp Help Center
Official troubleshooting and account support content.
Official updates for major disruptions and service notices.
Official WhatsApp Social Profiles for Live Updates
These are provider-controlled channels from the source list above. They are useful during incidents, but they can still lag behind live reachability symptoms.
Common WhatsApp outage signs
These patterns help distinguish full whatsapp.com downtime from partial service degradation, account problems, or route-specific failures.
When WhatsApp only fails for you
Use these steps when WebsiteDown.org or official sources suggest WhatsApp is generally reachable, but your own session still fails.
- Run the live check, then test feed refresh, profile loading, and posting as separate actions.
- Compare app and web behavior on Wi-Fi and mobile data before clearing sessions.
- Save the failing action, timestamp, and screenshot if official WhatsApp sources have not acknowledged an incident yet.
How to check if WhatsApp is down
Use this workflow to compare the WebsiteDown.org result with official sources, your own browser, and a second network before changing account or device settings.
How we check WhatsApp
WebsiteDown.org checks public reachability for whatsapp.com and separates that signal from product-specific symptoms inside WhatsApp.
The WhatsApp profile on this page is scoped to whatsapp.com, categorized as Social / Messaging, and grouped under meta. It cross-checks related hosts (web.whatsapp.com, faq.whatsapp.com, metastatus.com), uses verification sources such as Official website, Meta Status, WhatsApp Help Center, WhatsApp, and compares nearby diagnostics including Facebook, Instagram, Threads, Messenger so parent, child, and sibling service outages do not get blended together.
- whatsapp.com Public Reachability: Confirms whether whatsapp.com responds from regional probes before you investigate WhatsApp app-specific symptoms.
- Home Feed Refresh: WhatsApp can be reachable while feeds, search, or notification systems lag behind; this helps spot partial degradation.
- Account Session: Sign-in and session paths can fail while public WhatsApp pages still load, so this is checked as a separate outage clue.
- Posting Or Comment Action: Tracks the posting or comment action workflow as a separate WhatsApp signal, useful when the homepage and user reports disagree.
- Media Upload Path: Media delivery can fail after the homepage responds, so playback, stream startup, or CDN symptoms need their own signal.
Why trust this WhatsApp check?
WebsiteDown.org keeps the live verdict, official sources, and service profile separate so you can see what is measured and what still needs confirmation.
- The live result is a reachability signal for whatsapp.com from multiple regions, not a claim that every private WhatsApp workflow is healthy.
- The service profile is built from curated diagnostic fields: checked surfaces, failure modes, related hosts, official sources, and limitations.
- Official WhatsApp links are shown separately so you can verify provider-controlled status and support information before escalating.
