Is the Reddit app offline?
If you are reading this article on the day it is published, yes, the Reddit app is offline. However, if you’ve found this article on any other given day, you need to check if Reddit is offline yourself.
How to check if the Reddit app is down
We have a guide on how to check if Reddit is offline, and the steps you need to follow are exactly the same for the Reddit app.
First, you need to visit downdetector.com. Here, you’ll see the status of the Reddit servers based on user reports. The chart here allows you to report that Reddit is down and it also shows you if other users are reporting Reddit issues. Downdetector.com works based on a 24 hour period which means you’ll get an accurate representation of any outages.
The second place you need to visit to see if the Reddit app isn’t working is the official Reddit Twitter page. On the Reddit Status Twitter page, you’ll get accurate and up-to-date information on exactly what is happening with the Reddit servers. If you don’t see status reports in the last few minutes, hours, or days, then Reddit probably isn’t offline. If Twitter is down at the same time as Reddit, then we’ve got bigger issues to worry about.
How to fix the Reddit app
If after checking downdetector.com and Reddit Status you find that there aren’t any reported outages, there may be a problem keeping you from accessing the Reddit app.
To fix any Reddit app errors, you can shut down your phone, wait 10 seconds, and turn it on again. I find that restarting my devices can often quickly resolve my issues.
If that doesn’t work, try deleting the Reddit app and redownloading it. This can get rid of any bugs with your downloaded version of Reddit.
Hopefully, one of those fixes works for you. If you discover that Reddit is offline, you have to wait until the servers are back up.
