Several users are reporting issues when opening the **web or desktop** version **of WhatsApp**, the most popular messaging app on the**App Store and Play Store**, but what’s going on?

## Is it down? WhatsApp Web and Desktop are experiencing instability this Tuesday (19)

Several reports point to issues opening the app, where instead of opening your **WhatsApp** chats, users are redirected to a Facebook login page, even if they don’t have an account on the platform.

See below:

In addition, you may see a message stating that "you have been temporarily blocked for abusing the services."

But don’t worry. You haven’t lost your number, your account, or your SIM card, and you haven’t been blocked—the problem is global, as you can see in the post below:

The solution is to wait until everything stabilizes. There are comments suggesting that using **the web version on GUIA ANONIMA**solves the problem; it’s worth a try.
