WhatsApp DOWN - Messaging service NOT WORKING for thousands of users

WhatsApp is down tonight.
It appears the service went offline
at around 9pm with thousands now
unable to access the popular
messaging service.
Down detector is showing
thousands of outages across the UK
and other parts of the world
including Brazil and the US.
One user wrote on a forum:
"Showing Connecting.... Looks like
an issue with the service."
Whilst another said: "Whatsapp
stopped working for me at 21:13
today."
It's currently unclear what is
causing the issues or when things
will be back online.

Those who use WhatsApp as their
primary messaging app will be
aware the popular chat can get
pretty crowded, pretty fast.
This can lead to important
conversations being pushed down
the list – and lost below the fold.
Thankfully, the ability to pin key
conversations presents an elegant
solution to the problem. And could
save your thumb a lot of scrolling.
WhatsApp beta 2.17.162 and beta
2.17.163 both include the ability to
pin three conversations to the top
of the chat list.
