Facebook Messenger is currently no longer delivering messages. Not only German users are affected. Now Facebook is commenting on the failure.
- Facebook Messenger does not work worldwide. Messages are not delivered.
- Instagram is also struggling with similar problems.
- We have now received a statement from Facebook about the disruption.
The Facebook Messenger is down. If you use Facebook Messenger on your desktop PC, you can write and send messages, but they will not be delivered. Instead, the chat window only says in red: “Connection is being established …”
Same game in the mobile app. A message sent here remains in a waiting loop and you only see the messages “Sending …” or “Loading …”.
Users report problems worldwide
The problem is not limited to Germany, as a look at Twitter shows. For example, users in India also report similar problems.
In addition to Facebook Messenger, that is also fighting Instagram photo network, also belonging to Facebook, with similar problems. Facebook recently linked Facebook Messenger and Instagram’s chat function called Direct. The WhatsApp Messenger, which also belongs to Facebook, currently works without a problem.
