Is ChatGPT down, or is it just you?

  1. 1. Check the official status above

    Yellow or red means a real ChatGPT down event or partial outage on OpenAI’s side. There is nothing to fix on your side; wait for the fix. Incident titles are quoted from OpenAI.

  2. 2. Status is green? Change your setup

    Open ChatGPT on mobile data, another device or another browser. If that works, the problem is your original network or browser.

  3. 3. Compare the website and the app

    If only one of them fails, its cache or sign-in session is broken. Fix that side with the steps below.
