About Discord outages
Discord problems usually mean messages failing to send, voice channels dropping, or the app stuck on 'Connecting'.
Tip: Discord's status page breaks problems down by region and voice server, which helps if only voice is affected.
For confirmed outages, also check Discord's official status page.
Discord is up, but it won't work for me. What now?
- Refresh hard. Press Ctrl+F5 (Windows) or Cmd+Shift+R (Mac) to skip your browser's cache.
- Try another network. Switch your phone from Wi-Fi to mobile data. If it loads, your home network or internet provider is the issue.
- Restart your router. Unplug it for 30 seconds. This clears a lot of connection glitches.
- Turn off VPNs and ad blockers for a moment. Some sites block them.
- Update or reinstall the app if it's only the app that won't work.
