Twitter’s website was down Thursday afternoon, with users who tried to visit the service greeted by an error message.
A note on the company’s status website showed that Twitter was investigating an irregularity with its application programming interface, or API. The company’s mobile app also appeared to not be functioning properly.
The service appeared to have been at least partially restored for some users around 7 p.m. ET, after being down for more than an hour.
“The recent issue was caused by an inadvertent change we made to our internal systems,” the company tweeted. “Twitter should be working for everyone within the next few hours.
That didn't stop POTUS!
