Social media companies Facebook, Instagram and Whatsapp have reportedly crashed with users reporting issues across the platforms.

Instagram users were getting an error when they tried to use the photo-sharing platform Wednesday. The error was a 5xx error message that indicated there was a problem with the app.

Instagram has come back to life after an outage that left users unable to refresh the popular photo-sharing app for over an hour.
