Instagram down: Users around the world report app outage
The photo-sharing app Instagram and online messaging app WhatsApp have been down in most countries of the world.
The social media giant is yet to provide an official response to the complaints.
In fact, It should be mentioned here that Facebook, Messenger, Instagram, and WhatsApp are all owned by the social media giant Mark Zuckerberg.
Social media users also turned to the micro-blogging site Twitter to address the issue.
Moreover, WaBetaInfo, the main independent portal which gives an update about Apps; confirms that the messaging app is experiencing outages.
