None. Every check of twitter.com since 12 Oct 2026 got an answer.

A failed check means our server got no answer or a server error. It does not show which part of Twitter broke.

Twitter's own status page

Twitter is a social platform. We do not know of a public status page for it, so an outside check like this one is the quickest way to see if the site answers.

Up here but not working for you?

Work down this list. Stop at the first step that fixes it.

  1. Reload the page with the cache skipped: Ctrl + F5 on Windows, Cmd + Shift + R on a Mac.
  2. Open twitter.com in a private window. If it works there, an extension or a stored cookie is the cause.
  3. Try another network, for example your phone with wifi turned off. If it works, the fault is in your connection or your provider.
  4. Look up the address with our DNS lookup. If it finds records but your computer does not, restart your router or switch DNS server.
  5. Check if only one part is broken (sign-in, payments, uploads). The front page can load while a single feature is down.
  6. Wait 10 minutes and try again. Short faults often clear before anyone announces them.

For your own site, the full method is in our website down checklist.

How this check works

  • Every 5 minutes our server sends one request to https://twitter.com and waits up to 8 seconds.
  • Any answer below HTTP status 500 counts as up. No answer, or a status of 500 or above, counts as failed.
  • A failed check is tried once more after 3 seconds before it is recorded.
  • We check from one location. A fault that only affects another region will not show here.
  • We check one address. Twitter can have a broken feature while this address still answers.

Questions about Twitter status

Is Twitter down right now?+
No. Twitter is up. Our last check of twitter.com was on 22 Oct 2026, 20:13 UTC. It answered in 257 ms with HTTP status 200.
How often do you check Twitter?+
Every 5 minutes, with one request to https://twitter.com from our server. A check that fails is tried once more after 3 seconds before it counts as failed. Opening this page also runs one fresh check.
Twitter is up here but it does not work for me. Why?+
Our check only proves that twitter.com answers a request from our server. The fault can still be on your side (your connection, your DNS, your browser, an ad blocker), in your region only, or in one part of Twitter such as sign-in or payments while the front page still loads.
What counts as down on this page?+
No answer within 8 seconds, a failed connection, or an HTTP status of 500 or above. Any other answer counts as up, including redirects and a 403, because it shows the server is running.
