Popular messaging application WhatsApp appears to have gone down in Malaysia and several other countries.

Various reports from across the globe suggest that WhatsApp’s services have been disrupted since approximately 3pm Malaysia time.

WhatsApp is believed to be the most popular phone messaging application in the world with two billion users.

According to Reuters, WhatsApp has stopped working for many users across the world, with users across India, the United Kingdom, South Africa, and Asia reporting issues with sending and receiving texts and videos.

“We’re aware that some people are currently having trouble sending messages and we’re working to restore WhatsApp for everyone as quickly as possible,” a spokesperson for WhatsApp parent company Meta Platforms said today.

Downdetector said more than 11,000 users across India had reported an outage, while the numbers for United Kingdom were at 68,000 and 19,000 for Singapore as of about 0750 GMT.
