A widespread outage affecting the Facebook (FB, -1.74%) family of apps for more than 14 hours on Wednesday and Thursday remains unexplained.
Worldwide, many users reported issues using Facebook, Instagram, Messenger, Oculus VR and WhatsApp. For some, the websites were down completely, while others struggled with limited functionality. User reports of Facebook being unreachable continued at Down Detector Thursday morning, while Instagram tweeted overnight that service had been restored.
