According to the Independent report, "Users report seeing a message telling them that the service isn't working and that they should refresh the app. But refreshing does not seem to be working, and thousands of people have reported problems".

There were many users who shared the problem on Twitter.

"Is snapchat down for anybody else?" wrote one user.

"I like how twitter is the first thing i open when this happens #snapchatdown," another user tweeted.
