Instagram down reports have spiked today with users experiencing issues with the hugely popular social network.

Reports of Instagram down have been tricking in since around 2pm UK time, according to Down Detector stats.

But the independent outage monitor started to see Instagram down reports suddenly spike around 3pm UK time, with users around then also flocking to Twitter to report problems they were experiencing with the app.

One tweeted: “Everyone running to twitter to see if Instagram is down #Instagram”.

While another posted: “Anybody else’s instagram down??”

One added: “Y’all Instagram down too!??? #instagramdown”.

And another wrote: “Is @instagram causing issues with anyone else too? Not loading anything. #instagramdown #Instagram”.

At the time of writing Down Detector UK has recorded a peak of more than 1,500 reports of Instagram down.

Down Detector stats say over three quarters (76 percent) of Instagram down reports are related to the mobile app. Other reported problems are to do with the Instagram website and login services.
