It's Snapchat's turn to be down. Many people on Twitter are indeed complaining using the hashtag #snapchatdown. In addition, the number of reports on DownDetector exploded to evoke the bugs encountered.

Concretely, it is especially at the level of the sending of photos that the users encounter concerns. We were able to verify at ifastrecovery: the text messages seem to be sent correctly, but the images are not delivered to the recipient(s). Some also have trouble accessing their Snapchat accounts.
The month of October 2021 is definitely marked by several outages. A few days ago, all of Facebook's services (WhatsApp, Messenger, Instagram) were no longer working and again this Wednesday, October 13 in the morning, the OVH servers were down due to human error.
No official explanation yet
So don't be surprised if you can't send your selfies and photos of all kinds on Snapchat, the problem is not with your connection, but with the application.
We're aware that some Snapchatters are having issues using the app right now – hang tight, we're looking into it!
