BREAKING: #TikTok Is Fully Back Online [DETAILS]—-TikTok is back online following an hour-long outage that left UK users unable to view videos.
According to DownDetector, the problems started at around 15:21 GMT and affected users across the country.
MailOnline attempted to access the app, and found no videos were loading.
TikTok’s issues come just one day after rival app Instagram suffered a four-hour outage that saw users’ accounts suspended.
And only last week, WhatsApp experienced a two-hour outage that left users globally unable to send or receive messages.
So far, more than 1,200 problems have been logged on DownDetector, with 65 per cent of people reporting problems with the app, 23 per cent with the server connection, and 12 per cent with their feed

Several frustrated users took to Twitter to discuss the outage.
‘Is anyone else’s TikTokdown? Or is my account just getting deleted. I can’t see my posts or likes,’ one wrote.
Another tweeted: ‘IS TIKTOK DOWN??? My videos are gone.’
Another added: ‘Why is my tiktok doing this? My videos keep disappearing?’
MailOnline has contacted TikTok for comment. It’s the second major social media outage in as many days

Several frustrated users have taken to Twitter to discuss the outage, which TikTok is yet to address
Twitter user @Pirvinsha13 said: ‘After refreshing my page like a million times, logging in and out, checking my Wi-Fi only to come on twitter and realise what’s going on’
TikTok’s problems come soon after a ‘bug’ at rival Instagram meant users were told they’d been ‘suspended’ from their accounts for no real reason.
Instagram’s bug was still affecting users on Tuesday morning, even after the photo-sharing app said it had solved the issue.
Instagram is one of several platforms owned by Meta, the firm owned by Mark Zuckerberg, along with WhatsApp and Facebook.
But Meta and other social media companies are having trouble keeping up with the popularity of TikTok, which is owed by Beijing company ByteDance.
It was recently revealed that TikTok users spend 197.8 million hours a day scrolling through the app – 10 times what Instagram users spend on its equivalent Reels.
