Snapchat down: am I the only one affected?

It can happen again and again that a service has problems. This can be due to a serverproThere may be other reasons for the problem. First of all: it's not your fault - this problem also affects many other users. Some users are already posting on Twitter that there are problems. In the Snapchat app you only find the message "Update" - snaps cannot currently be sent or received. Logging into the app is also not possible - so it's best to stay in the app and not log out. Restarting your smartphone also doesn't help.

It seems that several users in Europe and the USA are affected by the problem. What exactly the problem is and how long it will persist is currently unknown. Snapchat has already on twitter commented on the problem and is apparently working on a fix.
