Snapchat should be working again for people after widespread reports of it going down this evening.

The tech company said the issue had been resolved, as hundreds of people took to Twitter to complain they were unable to access the app’s features.

Snapchat Support said: ‘We’re aware Snapchatters are having trouble sending Chats and Snaps.

‘We are looking into it and working on a fix.’

They later said the app was fixed, but if people were still having trouble they should get in touch.

DownDetector, which monitors websites for any outages, said it had received thousands of reports.

Some expressed relief saying they were now able to access the app again.

Snapchat is a popular app that’s harnessed by millions on Android and iPhone.
