Even mobile devices were not spared as some users on iOS and Android devices using the mobile app reported being affected by the outage. Other users were able to access Facebook using the app while being unable to access it on their computers.

The Facebook servers have since come back up for some users, but many others are still reporting disruptions. There is currently no explanation as to what had happened.
