That’s how it is. For a few minutes, the Instagram application has been showing various problems related to the private messages of the application. And it is that although the first reports began to be registered just a few minutes ago, the reports on Twitter have not been long in coming: “Instagram direct messages do not work,” “It does not let me send direct messages,” “It does not they load Instagram messages» … To this, we must add that from the application there is no response from Facebook, so the reasons for the crash are unknown.
INSTAGRAM PRIVATE MESSAGES ARE NOT WORKING
No, it’s not you. Thousands of users reported problems with Instagram direct messages a few minutes ago. The content of the messages loads neither from the conversations nor from the list where the contacts are shown. Some users have reported that sending messages gets stuck in sending them to the application’s servers, showing a constant notification that reads ‘Sending…’.

As for the rest of the application’s functions, it seems they also report certain errors that affect the loading of images and videos, as well as Instagram Stories. The first outbreaks seem to affect the main cities, such as Madrid, Seville, Barcelona, ​​Zaragoza, and Bilbao. However, little by little, it has begun to expand to the rest of the peninsula, as well as to the other countries of the European Union.
And it is that as we mentioned at the beginning of the article, the reasons for the fall are unknown at the moment. We will update the article with all the information about it as soon as it is available. Services such as WhatsApp, Facebook Messenger, or the Facebook application have stopped working when writing these lines, so it cannot be ruled out that it is a fall of the European Facebook servers. Only in downdetector.es the number of affected already exceeds 3,000 users.
