Instagram publishes no status feed we can read, so the only independent reading here is ours on the left.

Is it Instagram, or is it you?

Watching an outage above does not tell you whether your own connection or site is also having a problem. Enter your own URL for one live check, right now, no signup. This checks the site you enter, not Instagram -- it cannot diagnose Instagram's own systems.

What we measured, function by function

Instagram answers on more than one surface, and they can fail apart. Each row is one surface, checked from the same regions. The verdict above follows the auth row, because that is the surface we treat as this service's own; a failure on any other row is a partial outage, not a full one.

These are unverified reports from people using Instagram, counted separately from what our own probes measure. Anyone can file one, no account is needed, and the region on a report is chosen by the person filing it. We never open, extend or close an outage in our record based on report volume: only our own measurements do that. We have not received any reports for Instagram yet, which is not evidence that nothing is wrong.

Recent outages

No outages on record yet for Instagram.

measured entries are our own probes' readings; declared entries are the vendor's. How this check works

We have been measuring Instagram since August 22, 2026. We show nothing from before that date, and we never add an outage we did not observe ourselves, from any source.

Monitor your own site the same way

This page shows what we see when we check this service, using the same ten regions, for a site you run. RealUptime Monitor watches your own servers from inside your network, and it starts free.

Get told when we measure this

We will tell you when our probes stop reaching Instagram, and again when they can reach it again. That is our own measurement from ten regions, not Instagram's status page. No account, no card.

Delivery channel

Double opt-in: nothing is sent until you click the link in the confirmation email. One email when a measured outage opens, one when it closes, and a one-click unsubscribe in every one. We do not send anything else to this address.

The badge shows the share of our probes that succeeded over the last 30 days, and the window is printed on it so the number always says what period it covers. If our readings go stale it says stale, and if we have no readings it says so: it will not show green on data we cannot vouch for. Free, no account, and it links back here. See how the badge works for every window and the honesty rules behind it.

What Instagram's SLA implies, from our measurement

At or above your target

We measured none of downtime for Instagram over the 290h 26m since we started watching it on 2026-08-22, which is 100% uptime by our reading. A 99.9% target allows 17 minutes over that period.

By our measurement there is no shortfall to claim for this period.

This is computed from our own probe measurements, not from Instagram's SLA instrumentation. Their contract is normally measured against their own systems, with their own exclusions and a claim window, so their figure and ours will differ. Use this to start the conversation and ask for their number. It is not legal advice and it is not a determination of what you are owed.

What we check

primaryfunctional: auth surface
https://graph.instagram.com/
secondary
https://www.instagram.com/
RealUptime is not affiliated with Instagram; the name identifies what we measured, and nothing here speaks for Instagram's own team. We send a single web request to Instagram from 4 regions on our own schedule and time the response. We do not see inside Instagram's systems, do not use an account or real transaction, and are not the same signal Instagram's own team has access to. Treat this as one external data point, not a verdict. At least one endpoint we check for Instagram is a real functional API call (marked “functional” above), not just a landing page, so a clean read there is a stronger signal than reachability alone, though it still does not cover every feature of the service. Instagram operates in a limited set of regions, so we only check it from where it is actually available; we do not probe from a region we know it does not serve. We started monitoring this service on August 22, 2026 (12 of 14 days so far, 41924 of 500 checks). We show a full track record once we have enough continuous history. Check back soon, or monitor your own site continuously with RealUptime. Read the full methodology.
