A popular social media app left some users frustrated after it went down on Thursday afternoon.
Users on short-form video app TikTok reported issues around 1 p.m. eastern time, according to Downdetector. Outage reports peaked at 26,537.
The website added that 48 percent of the problems that were issued are regarding the app, 33 percent had to do with the server, and 19 percent had to do with the login.
