Is Snapchat Down Right Now?

Users are reporting not being able to send messages alongside being logged out and receiving authentication errors. Issues like this would indicate an issue with Snapchats main servers, which looks like a similar issue Facebook had to deal with when Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp went down just days ago.

For some users, the text is going through when sending messages, but images and video aren’t. It looks like this is affecting people differently across the world, which would also point to server-specific errors.
