Down Detector reported that 90 per cent of the users had issues watching videos,6 per cent had trouble with the website, and 2 per cent with the login. YouTube TV and YouTube Music were also said to be affected. The trend on Down Detector shows many users in India faced issues with YouTube after 8 AM on Wednesday with a peak around 8:38 AM with over ten thousand complaints. Many Youtube users also took to Twitter to post about their woes, with many thinking that there was an issue with their WiFi or internet connection and not YouTube.
