Short-form video platform TikTok experienced a brief but noticeable service disruption on Sunday, January 25, 2026, with thousands of users reporting problems accessing the app and its main features.

According to outage-tracking sites, reports of issues peaked at over 35,000 globally, with complaints ranging from videos not loading to feeds failing to refresh.

The disruption began early Sunday and was most intense in the United States, where many users reported difficulties logging in, videos freezing, comments missing, and the popular “For You” page not working correctly — leading to widespread frustration and discussion on platforms like Reddit and X.

By early afternoon, user-reported problems had dropped significantly, suggesting that the outage was brief and largely resolved without an official statement from TikTok. Many users turned to social media to confirm the outage or to share memes about unexpectedly going offline.
