Reports continue to soar

Reports of a Yahoo Mail outage of Downdector have soared this afternoon.

Over 3,700 complaints have been made as users flood social media with reports.

When have there been Yahoo outages before?

There have been other reported Yahoo outages in the past including:

  • July 2021: Yahoo’s mail service was reported down at about 3:30pm for about two hours.
  • February 2021: Users reported problems both in Yahoo’s app and site.
  • January 2021: Over 55 percent of people were unable to login into their email or read their mail.
  • September 2020: Users had trouble logging in to the platform, with the most reports at 7pm.

How can I check if Yahoo is down?

Those who may be experiencing difficulties with Yahoo can check another social media app, such as X or Facebook for reports.

If you don’t have an X account, Down Detector will tell users when the apps are down or experiencing difficulties.

If it appears the problem may not be widespread, try checking the internet connection on your device or exiting the app before logging back in.
