Instagram is down.
Numerous users around the world are reporting issues with the photo-sharing app as of Thursday.
Down Detector, a site that tracks outages, details reports of issues across the US, South America, and Europe.
Business Insider reporters in San Francisco, Chicago, and New York were all unable to refresh the app.
The outage doesn’t seem to be affecting Instagram’s parent company, Facebook, but it comes after a spate of outages over the past few months for the embattled social-networking giant.
An Instagram representative did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
