Is GitHub Down Right Now?

GitHub not working? Try these steps

  1. 1
    Refresh or restart the app

    Reload the page with Ctrl + F5 (Cmd + Shift + R on Mac). On a phone, close GitHub completely and open it again.

  2. 2
    Check your internet connection

    Open another website or app. If nothing loads, restart your router or switch between Wi-Fi and mobile data.

  3. 3
    Update the app or browser

    An outdated GitHub app or browser can stop working after changes on GitHub’s side. Install any pending updates.

  4. 4
    Clear cache and cookies

    Old saved data can keep showing an error after GitHub is fixed. Clear them for this site, or try a private window.

  5. 5
    Change DNS or turn off VPN

    Switch your DNS to 1.1.1.1 or 8.8.8.8 and disable any VPN, proxy or ad blocker, then try GitHub again.

GitHub status FAQ

Is GitHub down right now?

The status box at the top of this page shows our latest automatic check of github.com, which runs every 10 minutes, plus how many people reported GitHub problems in the last hour. If our check is green but you still can’t use GitHub, the problem is most likely on your side.

Why is GitHub not working for me?

When GitHub is up for everyone else, the usual causes are a weak or blocked connection, an outdated app, cached data in your browser, a VPN or ad blocker, or a DNS problem with your internet provider. Work through the troubleshooting steps on this page in order.

How can I tell if GitHub is down for everyone?

Compare two things on this page: our server check and the number of user reports. If our check fails or many people report problems at the same time, GitHub is probably having a wider outage. If both look normal, it is likely just you.

What should I do while GitHub is down?

Wait and try again later rather than reinstalling the app or resetting your password, which won’t fix a server-side problem. Avoid repeating payments or orders until GitHub is working again, and check this page for updates.

How often do you check GitHub?

Our server checks github.com every 10 minutes and keeps the results for 90 days. User reports from this page are counted live, so a sudden spike shows up within minutes.
