Twilio outage on May 18, 2026
Twilio users likely saw failed connections, degraded availability, or session instability for this Communications service. The incident reached Minor severity and lasted 9h 42m. The stored report window does not show a preserved user-report spike.
Twilio’s official status page is reporting a minor issue, “Delay in Getting Twilio/flows Templates Approved on Whatsapp,” affecting the Messaging Channels component. Outside of that, Downrightnow’s current signals look quiet: DNS is resolving normally, user reports are at zero, and there’s no notable regional network anomaly or chatter. With limited corroborating signals, this appears more like a component-specific problem than a broad Twilio outage.
