Thousands of Instagram users reported issues with accessing the platform on Monday morning.
Approximately 7,000 users reported the app was down around 10:15 a.m. ET, according to outage-tracking site Down Detector. After about 45 minutes, however, the number of reports had dipped noticeably.
Instagram confirmed in a tweet it was looking into the issue.
“We are aware that some Instagram users in different parts of the world are having issues accessing their Instagram accounts,” a Meta spokesperson told CNN Business in a statement. “We’re working to resolve the issue as quickly as possible and apologize for the inconvenience.”
Additional information on the cause of the outage was not immediately available.
