The Swedish firm, the largest of its kind, acknowledged the outage, tweeting: “Something’s not quite right, and we’re looking into it. Thanks for your reports!”
The company has since tweeted that “things are looking better”, but did not say what had caused the issue.
However, many users are still reporting problems with the app.
The Down Detector website said it has received tens of thousands of outage reports in the last two hours.
