Facebook users, particularly those accessing the social media platform through desktop browsers, reported receiving an error message stating: “Account Temporarily Unavailable.” The message added that the issue was due to a site problem and was expected to be resolved shortly.
While Instagram users reported problems loading their feeds and accessing the app. Some users received the message: “Sorry, something went wrong. We're working on getting this fixed as soon as we can.”
According to outage-tracking website DownDetector, reports of problems with Facebook began rising shortly before 9 am on Sunday. The platform also recorded a sharp increase in complaints related to Facebook Messenger and Instagram.
