Users ‘can’t send images’ via Messenger app
Users have taken to social media to complain that they are unable to send images via the Facebook messenger app.
One person said: “Can’t send any pictures – what is going on, I use messenger for my business??”
While another added: “Been great until 5 minutes ago. Cannot send pictures. A real pain as I use this as my picture uploader for my business.”
When you block someone on Facebook can they still see your messages?
The blocked person won’t be able to contact you on Facebook.
This means they can’t see things you post on your profile, tag you in posts, comments or photos.
They will also be unable to invite you to events or groups, start a conversation with you or add you as a friend.
And, if you block someone you’re friends with, Facebook will unfriend them as well.
How have users responded?
Some users have claimed that the app was not responding.
But others have said they simply can’t send photos.
An error message appears, reading: “Couldn’t send.”
“omfg messenger is down again I WANTED TO SEND A VIDEO OF MY CAT,” one user said.
“for those wondering, Facebook messenger is down for some and blocks you from sending photos it just says didn’t send,” another added.
How do I change my Facebook password?
Luckily, it is quick and straightforward to change your password on the Facebook website:
1. Log into Facebook from your web browser.
2. Click “Account” in the top right corner of the page to reveal a drop-down menu.
3. Next, click “Settings and Privacy” (if using an old version of Facebook you can skip this step).
4. Now select “Settings”.
5. Then choose “Security and Login” from the menu on the left.

How can I check if the problem is widespread?
The DownDetector is a useful tool to check if there are any problems on certain services – including social media platforms and phone lines.
People can report any issue they are experiencing on the website, which then creates a live outage map.
It shows how widespread the problem is and clarifies if it is only happening in a certain area.
There is also an option for users to comment and explain the problems they are experiencing.
