It’s not just you: App Store is currently down

When users tried to open the App Store on Wednesday night, they were met with error messages saying things like “Cannot Connect” and “Something went wrong.” “Users are experiencing a problem with this service. We are investigating and will update the status as more information becomes available,” Apple said on its System Status webpage.

There are multiple posts on social networks from people complaining about the App Store not working for them. 9to5Mac can confirm that the outage has been affecting users across multiple platforms, including iOS, macOS, and tvOS.

Earlier this year, Apple’s online services faced an outage for hours. At the time, the outage also affected App Store Connect and Apple Music.
