Users in US still complain of Instagram 'crash'

Users were asked to delete and download the app again

Photo-sharing application Instagram was the center of attention on Tuesday night as users all over the world could not access the social media platform, however, people in the United States are still complaining off inaccessibility.

Instagram was plagued with an issue causing the application to crash on Android devices. A tweet on their official page read, "Yesterday, there was an issue causing the Instagram app to crash on Android devices. We're sorry, and things are resolved! If you're still experiencing problems, try reinstalling or updating your app."

I can’t log into my account, @marlsbrinx on Instagram it says “user doesn’t exist” I think the account was hacked, and the info was changed, I received an email saying the two factor verifcation was turned off.. I can’t get a support link for this issue through help center

Everything works for me apart from uploading images / video to my Instagram stories - it crashes the app when I try to add one. Is this connected to the issue? Or separate? I’m on an iPhone 📱 #instagramdown

Most demanded to bring back the previous algorithm.

How about you create an algorithm that shows how I've never clicked on any of the useless unrelated ads that you're ramming down my throat on a daily basis. Rather bring back chronological posts instead! Wayyy more inspiring. Thank you kindly.

Any chance while you are fixing things you can bring back the chronological order option? I want to see everything in order, not just what you think I need to see!

And please give an option to turn off heads up notifications for android. There's no option in app info >notifications.

Lastly, the users were left to the last resort which meant they had to factory reset their phone for the app to finally begin working again.

Disable it & revert to factory version. After enable it & update it in playstore.
