Facebook Messenger app down or problems

The Facebook Messenger app can be found on iTunes, Google play, the Chrome Web Store, and other stores for mobile devices. If the Facebook Messenger app is not working, then this can range from servers going down for all platforms, or problems local to just one operating system.

While the developers explain they aim to update the Facebook Messenger app every couple of weeks, this then leads to a lot of debate around what bugs should get fixed with the next Android, iPhone, or other platforms update.

Common issues include chat messages not being delivered, Facebook app keeps closing, not sending or receiving, Facebook app crashing, connection not working to server, and this can also be when Facebook Messenger is down for maintenance.

What Facebook Messenger problems do you have on Wednesday June 26, 2019? The latest status update will be left below with scheduled maintenance information when it arrives. Leave your feedback if the application is down today, or you have other issues.

The mini-windows of the messenger do not react at all. If you want to close them they open instantly. If you want to open a new one is closes instantly.Don’t worry, Facebook itself will die one day just like myspace, hi5 etc

My messenger isn’t working on my android device since the update this week! It was working perfectly before. Now it closes immediately and stops working. I get a pop up telling me it has stopped as soon as I try opening it. I had to download messenger lite!

Facebook has become fat, bloated and controlling and I have to say it sucks. They started banning people temporary or permanently and now Facebook doesn’t work at all. I’m 35 and noticed that no social media stays #1 forever. Facebook has become garbage and surprised it has happen this quickly. I bet this was done on purpose to show us SHEEP they have the power.

Notifications on Android Facebook app aren’t showing up when I click the bell icon. But when I open marketplace using the shop icon my FB notifications show up there. But if I click on the notifications under marketplace it just opens random marketplace listings.

I can’t respond to notifications or use marketplace from my phone.

All messages from People/Groups are gone. Getting error message “Couldn’t load messages”. When trying to PM people, the latest message appears on the top instead of the bottom. And on the history, there is a red exclamation point as if there was an error…… please fix it ASAP, I use it for my work.

My messages stay in the “sent” status for an hour sometimes. Sometimes it stays as “sent” until they open the conversation then they go straight to read. They are not getting “Delivered”. Until yesterday it would say “Sent” and about 1-10 seconds later it would show the “delivered status”..

The active list shows but the recently active list doesn’t show and time stamp is gone. That used to be a big help by not having to check each individual separately before texting so they don’t get disturbed while sleeping. How do I get it back?
