WhatsApp not working for you?

If we show WhatsApp as up but it won't load for you, try these steps:

  1. Make sure the WhatsApp app is up to date, then force-close and reopen it.
  2. Switch between Wi-Fi and mobile data to rule out your network.
  3. Check that WhatsApp is allowed to use background data and send notifications.
  4. If only some messages fail, the problem may be the other person's connection.

Why is WhatsApp not working for me?

If WhatsApp is up for us but not for you, the cause is usually local: an outdated browser cache, a DNS problem, your internet connection, a VPN or ad blocker, or an out-of-date app. Work through the steps under "WhatsApp not working for you?" above.

How do you check if WhatsApp is down?

Our server requests https://web.whatsapp.com/ every 2 minutes from outside your network. If WhatsApp answers at all, even with a redirect or a sign-in page, we count it as up. Timeouts, refused connections, DNS failures and 5xx server errors count as down. Press "Check now" to run a live test at any time.
