# Facebook outage reports and status Canonical page: https://iszdown.com/now/facebook Status: Current availability unconfirmed 24-hour window (UTC): 2026-10-19T04:40:00.000Z to 2026-10-20T04:40:00.000Z Recorded outage reports in this window: 0 Last successful estimated-activity check: 2026-10-19T01:23:56.000Z Facebook is an American online social media and social networking service owned by Meta Platforms. Founded in 2004 by Mark Zuckerberg with fellow Harvard College students and roommates Eduardo Saverin, Andrew McCollum, Dustin Moskovitz, and Chris Hughes, its name comes from the face book directories often given to American university students. Membership was initially limited to Harvard students, gradually expanding to other North American universities and, since 2006, anyone over 13 years old. As of 2020, Facebook claimed 2.8 billion monthly active users, and ranked seventh in global internet usage. It was the most downloaded mobile app of the 2010s. Facebook can be accessed from devices with Internet connectivity, such as personal computers, tablets and smartphones. After registering, users can create a profile revealing information about themselves. ## How to interpret this page Estimated down reports are based on US problem-related activity. Values are relative activity from 0 to 100, not counts of submitted reports. The HTML chart averages samples into ten-minute intervals. Partial samples are excluded and missing samples are not invented. Recorded outage reports and estimated activity are separate signals. Neither confirms that every user is affected. Missing or stale data does not establish that a service is working. Methodology: https://iszdown.com/methodology ## Citation Cite [Facebook on Iszdown](https://iszdown.com/now/facebook), include your access time and the observation time above, and qualify estimated activity as an estimate. Recheck before describing current status. Iszdown is independent of the monitored provider. ## Estimated activity samples No usable activity samples are available for this service in this window. ## Evidence and recovery Current availability unconfirmed. More recent independent evidence is needed. No recent recovery can be established from available evidence. ## Website measurements Successful sampled checks (24h): 100% (201/201). Restricted checks: 0. Median response: 103 ms. P95 response: 194 ms. These are sampled public website checks from one US server, not continuous uptime or authenticated app/API tests. Missing data stays unknown. ## Daily outage history Dates use America/New_York. Green means no issues observed with sufficient monitoring; pink means official incidents, repeated website failures, or reports from at least three network addresses. Gray means insufficient coverage. These are daily evidence summaries, not guaranteed uptime. | Date | Daily assessment | Observed hours | Official incidents | | --- | --- | --- | --- | ## About Facebook monitoring This page combines the available Facebook report activity, official product status, public website measurements, and daily history. Each measurement has its own observation time. A search spike alone does not confirm downtime, and a reachable website does not establish that sign-in or every product feature works. ## Troubleshooting ### Facebook will not open Compare your usual browser or app with a private browser window, then try another network if available. Save unsent work first. A difference between networks can help separate a local connection problem from a wider disruption. ### Facebook is slow or only one feature fails Record the affected action, exact error, and time. Compare the website response measurements with any official component incidents; loading a homepage does not test every feature. ## Frequently asked questions ### Is Facebook down right now? Current availability unconfirmed. More recent independent evidence is needed. This page was assembled at 2026-10-20T04:42:55.000Z. ### How many Facebook outage reports are there today? The displayed rolling 24-hour window contains 0 recorded reports, from 2026-10-19T04:40:00.000Z to 2026-10-20T04:40:00.000Z. This is not a calendar-day total or a count of affected people. Estimated activity is shown separately as an estimate. ### Why does Facebook show operational when it is not working for me? An official operational status can coexist with a local network issue, account problem, or feature-specific incident. Compare the mapped components, recent incident updates, and regional diagnostic on this page. Automated website checks test public access, not your signed-in session or every Facebook feature. ### When was Facebook status last updated? No current product status observation is available for Facebook. Reports, estimated activity, and website checks can provide additional context. ### Has Facebook had outages before? The daily calendar links available incident evidence and retains daily monitoring summaries. Pink marks service issues, green requires sufficient observations with no issues observed, and gray means insufficient coverage. The collected history is incomplete and is not a lifetime outage count or a guarantee of uninterrupted uptime. ### How do I follow Facebook or report a problem? Use “Watch this service” to save Facebook in this browser’s watchlist, then return to compare its status with other saved services. The watchlist does not send notifications. Use the problem-report button for an outage report; contact the provider through its official website for account, billing, or private support issues. Iszdown is independent and cannot resolve provider support tickets. ## Related services - [Facebook](https://iszdown.com/now/facebook) - [Facebook Dating](https://iszdown.com/now/facebook-dating) - [Facebook Live](https://iszdown.com/now/facebook-live) - [facebook messenger](https://iszdown.com/now/facebook-messenger) - [Facebook](https://iszdown.com/now/fb) - [Facebook Messenger](https://iszdown.com/now/messenger) - [messenger and facebook](https://iszdown.com/now/messenger-and-facebook) - [Facebook](https://iszdown.com/now/the-facebook)
