Any downtime for WhatsApp becomes a much discussed matter across social media, given the app’s sheer popularity across the world. WhatsApp presently has over 2 billion active users around the world, which accounts for over a quarter of the entire world’s population. In India, WhatsApp has over 400 million active users, making it the most popular app in the country as well. However, its massive popularity also translates to considerably heavy load on its servers, which WhatsApp has succumbed to in recent times. The service faced a brief outage in India only a short while ago, although the impact of the outage was limited since it happened in the late night hours.
WhatsApp’s latest outage appears to have not affected too many users in India yesterday, since there were very few reports of unexpected outage of the app on popular social media platforms. The fix has been issued from WhatsApp’s server end itself, and users are not required to download any updates to the app to fix any inconsistent connectivity issues.
