About WhatsApp
Before assuming a full WhatsApp outage, use this page to compare live signals for whatsapp.com. We run technical checks such as HTTP status, response time, DNS resolution and SSL certificate validation, then present the result in a way that helps you decide whether the service is actually down or whether the problem may be local to your browser, device, ISP, VPN or region. Messaging products can feel down even when only notifications, media uploads, calls or specific regions are affected, so the live check should be compared with your own device and network. For WhatsApp, users commonly check affected areas such as Messaging, Media uploads, Voice calls, Video calls, WhatsApp Web, Login/device linking. Always compare the latest check time with what you see on your own connection because outage conditions can change quickly.
Our latest independent probe reached whatsapp.com. HTTP status is 200, and the current response time is shown in the live status panel above.

Troubleshooting Steps
If WhatsApp is down for everyone:
- Check official status or support channels
- Wait for restoration before repeated login/payment attempts
- Monitor this page for live technical changes
If it's only down for you:
- Clear browser cache
- Try another browser or device
- Restart router
- Flush DNS cache
- Try mobile data instead of WiFi
- Disable VPN/proxy
If the page fails for you but this checker reports reachable, treat it as a possible local or regional issue first. Refresh whatsapp.com, open it in a private window, clear browser cache, flush DNS, temporarily disable VPN or proxy tools and try a mobile hotspot or different Wi-Fi network. Good service-specific checks include: Try mobile data; Check WhatsApp Web separately; Send a plain text message before media; Restart the app and compare with other Meta services. If the result here is DOWN, wait a few minutes and check official channels before repeatedly logging in, paying, uploading files or retrying sensitive actions. If the result is UP, the issue may be local, regional or account-specific.
Flush DNS Cache Commands:
ipconfig /flushdnssudo dscacheutil -flushcachesudo systemd-resolve --flush-cachesOfficial Status & Verification
For final confirmation, check WhatsApp's official support, status dashboard, help center or verified social channels when available. This page provides independent technical monitoring for whatsapp.com, but it cannot replace incident updates from the service owner, especially for partial outages that affect only apps, APIs, payments, login or specific regions.

Possible causes include local network problems, DNS cache, browser issues, VPN routing, regional blocking, server errors or temporary maintenance.
