Is Facebook down? Check it here!

In the daily work of a marketer, it can happen that their main work tool – the Facebook advertising platform – stops working. Not because of a local browser error or cookies, but a global fault on Facebook's servers.

Instead of guessing and testing whether it’s the fault of the computer we’re using, the web browser, or perhaps Facebook itself, you can check it simply and quickly. Facebook Ads, like any respectable internet platform, provides its customers with a dedicated tool that allows us to check if Facebook is working properly, or perhaps – as happens several times a year – it has crashed and won’t budge.

To use this solution, just glance at the updated in real time window below or visit the page status.fb.com. It provides current and historical data on issues with Ads Manager and related Facebook services. However, it does not show locations where the advertising platform is unavailable, nor is it responsible for the operation of Facebook that we all use every day.

You can check the current status of Facebook Ads Manager in the window below

If you see the ✅ sign above, it means everything is fine and there are currently no issues in Ads Manager.

How to check if Facebook is down?

To check if the “standard” Facebook is working, visit the external site downdetector.com. The site shows the status of Facebook services at a given moment and allows users from different locations to leave comments about the area of the fault occurring for them.
