Many people claim they're not logged in, blank image postings, "Welcome to Instagram" messages like they have a fresh new account, or feeds that stop loading after the first few photographs

Instagram announced just before 9 p.m. ET that the issues had been rectified, and the applications should be operational again

Instagram communications head Seine Kim said some individuals were having problems using Instagram

Seine Kim said We worked rapidly to rectify the issue for everyone affected, and we regret any inconvenience

The interruption was not localised, as other services were still operational.

The network disruption trackers at NetBlocks have detected Instagram's "intermittent" troubles occurring globally, although there is no widespread blockage occurring anywhere.
