HOW TO USE IT
Read this page in four steps
Everything above updates on its own. Reload the page for the newest result.
-
1
Start with the latest check
The coloured box says whether www.instagram.com answered our last request, with the HTTP code, the response time and how long ago it ran.
-
2
Look at the 24-hour strip
Each block is one hour: green when every check answered, gold when some failed, red when all failed. One gold block is often a short blip; several red blocks in a row mean a real outage.
-
3
Compare with visitor reports
If the site check is fine but reports are climbing, the problem is probably in the app, payments or the network rather than the website.
-
4
Report it or get official help
Press Report a problem if Instagram fails for you, then use the official links further down for updates or a complaint.
What to try when Instagram is not working
Meta reports the health of its business tools at metastatus.com. When only your account misbehaves, such as a feed that will not refresh or a post that will not upload, log out and back in, update the app, and test a friend's account on the same network.

Independent check, one location
VPSLake has no connection with Instagram. The check runs from a single server outside India, so a problem limited to one region, mobile network or bank may not appear here, and some sites answer foreign monitors differently from local visitors. Treat this page as one signal alongside the visitor reports and official announcements.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Instagram Status FAQ
At 01:00 IST on 7 Nov, www.instagram.com replied normally with HTTP 200 in 1,185 ms. In the past hour 0 visitors reported a problem with Instagram here. The check repeats every five minutes.
Every five minutes our server requests Instagram's website at instagram.com. It records whether an answer arrived, the HTTP status and the response time, and keeps seven days of results. It does not log in, pay, or use the mobile app.
A working public website does not guarantee that logins, payments, the app or your own connection are fine. Try mobile data instead of Wi-Fi, update the app, and press Report a problem so others can see it is not only them. Several reports within the same hour usually point to a genuine outage.
Meta reports the health of its business tools at metastatus.com. When only your account misbehaves, such as a feed that will not refresh or a post that will not upload, log out and back in, update the app, and test a friend's account on the same network.
No. The report saves the service, the time and a salted one-way hash that only stops the same visitor being counted twice in an hour. The hash is wiped after an hour and the report itself after seven days.
No. VPSLake runs this as an independent check and has no link with Instagram. For official updates use the help links on this page.
