Common Facebook problems and fixes
Facebook won't load or keeps spinning
If Facebook is up for everyone, close and reopen the app, or try the website in a private window. Switching between Wi-Fi and mobile data also helps.
You can't log in
Login problems often come before a full outage. If many people report them, wait it out. Resetting your password during an outage rarely helps.
Messages or posts won't send or load
Check your connection with another app first. If others work, it's likely Facebook. Your messages usually send once it's back.
It works on one device but not another
Update the app and restart the device. If only one device fails, the problem is that device, not Facebook.
