YouTube resolves issue that briefly impacted video streaming globally
Oct 15, 2025 6:31 PM

(Reuters) -Alphabet-owned YouTube said on Wednesday that it has resolved an issue impacting video streaming services for several thousand users globally.

YouTube said in a post on X that users should now be able to play videos on YouTube Music, YouTube TV and its main platform - without specifying what caused the issue.

At its peak, at 7:55 p.m. ET, 366,172 users in the U.S. had reported issues with YouTube, according to Downdetector, which tracks outages by collating status reports from a number of sources.

Thousands of outages were also reported in the UK, Canada, and Australia, Downdetector showed.

Downdetector's numbers are based on user-submitted reports. The actual number of affected users may vary.
