About X (Twitter)

X is the platform almost everyone still calls Twitter. Elon Musk bought it in 2022, renamed it in 2023, and it has since been folded into his AI company xAI.

Its role has not really changed, it remains where breaking news, politics, sport and public argument play out in real time, and in India it carries a great deal of journalism, cricket commentary and political messaging.

Its traffic is event driven rather than habitual, an election result, a match, or a big news break brings everybody on at once, which is when the platform is under the most strain.

Live reports

  • No reports yet, be the first to report an issue above.

If X (Twitter) isn't working

  • 'Rate limit exceeded'? You did too many actions too fast, so it is temporary. Wait a while, often up to 30 minutes. The website and app have separate limits, so try the other one.

  • Feed not loading or 'something went wrong'? Refresh, check your connection, and update the app. The timeline can fail for many people at peak traffic.

  • Can't post or log in? During an outage this hits many people at once. If reports are low, check your connection and avoid repeated attempts that can lock the account.

  • Try the web versus the app X tracks web and app limits separately, so one often works when the other does not.

  • Check the live status above A spike across India or globally means it is X, not you.

Other ways to access X (Twitter)

  • Try the web versus the app If the app is stuck or rate limited, x.com in a browser often works, and vice versa.

  • Wait out a rate limit A rate limit clears on its own, usually within a while, so slow down your actions after it lifts.

  • Follow news on another app for now For live updates during an X outage, another app or a news site can fill in until it is back.

  • X Support for account issues Use the verified X support contact for login or account locks. X help is mainly in the app and online.

Questions

Check the live status and report map above. A spike across India, and often globally, means a wider outage. If reports are low, it is more likely your app, connection or account.
It means you did too many actions, like scrolling, liking or following, in a short time, so X paused them. It is temporary, not a ban, and usually clears within a while, often up to 30 minutes. Web and app limits are separate, so if the app is limited the website may still work.
Refresh, check your connection, and update the app. At peak traffic or during an outage the timeline can fail for many people at once, and the reports above show how wide it is.
Refresh karein, internet check karein, aur app update karein. 'Rate limit exceeded' aaye to thodi der ruk kar try karein, wo temporary hota hai. Upar live status dekhte rahein.
During an outage posting and login fail for many people at once. If reports are low, check your connection and avoid repeated attempts, since a temporary account lock can also block posting.
Yes. Tap the Download button on the live status card at the top of this page to save the X server down image. The screenshot shows X's current status, the last checked time and how many users across India are reporting problems right now. So when X is actually down you get a real service down screenshot, not a mock-up. Save the service down image to keep it or send it to someone.
We run an on demand check from our server and combine it with real user reports across India. Reports are the main signal, since X can respond to our check while the feed or posting still fails for users.
