Facebook Inc’s (FB.O) photo-sharing social network Instagram came back in the form for some users on Wednesday, after suffering a global outage days after it appointed a new head of the app.
The check made by Reuters found that the mobile app and the website, which went down temporarily are recuperated, and users could post pictures and videos on to their feed.
Earlier, the message saying “couldn’t refresh feed” was displayed in the app, while its website went down for users.
Users exploited Twitter to grumble about the issue, tweeting jokes and comments along with the #instagramdown hashtag.
Connell@connell_mchugh tweeted “How am I supposed to know who likes avocado on toast now #instagramdown,”
DownDetector’s live outage map earlier displayed that parts of North America, Europe, Australia, India, Singapore, and other countries were experiencing issues with the service.
Facebook and Instagram both were not immediately available to drop the feedbacks.
The worldwide outage appears after Instagram announced on Monday that long-term insider Adam Mosseri would be designated as the new head of the photo-sharing app, a week after its co-founders resigned
The mobile app has more than one billion active monthly users and has increased by appending features such as messaging and short videos.
