New Delhi: Hours after netizens on Wednesday complained about outage of services on Facebook, WhatsApp and Instagram, the parent social media giant said its platforms including Instagram, WhatsApp, Messenger and Facebook itself are all back up and running after an issue earlier reported was resolved. For the majority of the day, the apps -- all owned by Facebook -- were experiencing issues across uploading and sending images, videos and other files. The company confirmed this in tweets for Facebook, Facebook Messenger and Instagram. "Earlier today, some people and businesses experienced trouble uploading or sending images, videos and other files on our apps and platforms. The issue has since been resolved and we should be back at 100% for everyone. We're sorry for any inconvenience," Facebook wrote on Twitter. Instagram's twitter handle also posted the same information. "We're back! The issue has been resolved and we should be back at 100% for everyone. We're sorry for any inconvenience." Facebook users had reported problems in logging in, sharing and downloading content, and using the apps in general. The issue was prevalent across Europe, USA, and Africa alike. Services were affected in India as well. Acknowledging the problem, Facebook had tweeted earlier in the day, "We're aware that some people are having trouble uploading or sending images, videos and other files on our apps. We're sorry for the trouble and are working to get things back to normal as quickly as possible."
