The WhatsApp messaging feature is disappearing worldwide as users struggle to send or receive text messages

Meta reported on Friday that there are disruptions in its internationally popular text messaging service WhatsApp, especially the app’s Cloud API.

Inbound and outbound messaging was affected an hour prior to the advisory, with Meta’s technical teams actively investigating the issue.

“We will provide another update within four hours, or sooner if additional information is available.” Meta mentioned in his post on the matter.

Meta posted the message at 5:17 PM Eastern Daylight Time.

This time last month, a similar Could API issue caused multiple Meta-apps to be disabled at the same time.

A trifecta of social media sites from Meta, Instagram, Facebook and WhatsApp went dark for users around the world on April 3 – with outages to the site’s business and cloud API and lucrative user tracking ad technology apparently linked with the problem.

“We are aware that some advertisers may be experiencing difficulty accessing or viewing reporting for their ads,” said a business status report posted at 7:19 PM GMT (3:19 PM ET) during the April outage.

Mark Zuckerberg’s platforms were also offline for at least two and a half hours on Tuesday, March 5, leaving hundreds of thousands of users unable to access their accounts.
