YouTube has confirmed that its services are fully restored after over 350,000 users experienced access issues.

On Tuesday evening at around 8 p.m. Eastern time, the crowd-sourced monitoring site Downdetector recorded reports from users struggling to use the YouTube app, which was the most frequently cited problem.

By around 10 p.m., YouTube announced that service had been fully restored on all its platforms.

“The issue with our recommendations system has been resolved and all of our platforms (YouTube.com, the YouTube app, YouTube Music, Kids, and TV) are back to normal! We really appreciate you bearing with us while we sorted this out,” a statement on the YouTube help page reads.

Meanwhile, prior to announcing the fix, YouTube stated it was addressing “a small number of reports of users being unable to log in to YouTube TV.”

“This is related to the broader issue across YouTube, and we’re also working on a fix here,” YouTube stated.

YouTube initially confirmed the outage in a post on X: “If you’re having trouble accessing YouTube right now, you’re not alone.”

The YouTube outage quickly sparked jokes online.

Gaming creator ParrotMode tweeted on X that YouTubers were now “writing 45-minute scripts about The Great YouTube Outage of 2026.”
