Millions of users faced trouble while downloading images, voice messages on Whatsapp which were frozen for hours. However, there was no problem in sending and receiving text messages on Whatsapp. On Instagram, people failed to upload photos in various parts of the world.
It now appears that the problem was global, with media reports and tweets revealing that the issue was prevalent across Europe, US and Africa as well.
