Snapchat has said it is aware users are having “issues” with the app.
The social media platform took to Twitter on Wednesday to say it was “looking into it”.
It came shortly after the online service status tracker Downdetector reported users were having problems.
Down Detector registered tens of thousands of reports from Snapchat users on Wednesday.
Users also complained across social media of issues with Snapchat.
“Is anyone else’s Snapchat half down or is it just mine, main snaps aren’t sending but ‘blue’ chat is?” one Twitter user wrote.
The major outage comes just a week after Facebook was hit by issues across all of its apps, including Instagram, WhatsApp and Messenger. The total down time lasted more than six hours, costing the company millions of dollars in revenue.
