- Mobile App Not Opening / Crashing: Verify your app is updated to the latest version in the App Store or Google Play Store, restart your mobile device, or clear cached application data.
- Login & Password Verification: If sign-in is failing or 2FA codes are delayed, check our live incident score above to see if authentication servers are experiencing a widespread outage.
- Server Timeouts & Slow Speeds: If pages fail to load or throw 502/503 errors, edge CDN routing nodes or central database clusters may be under heavy load or maintenance.
❓ Is Proton Mail Down Right Now?
🔧 What To Do While Proton Mail is Having Issues: 5 Methods
Systematically verify whether the issue is an upstream server-side crash or a local ISP/device routing lock:
Method 1: Confirm Upstream Server Status (10 seconds)
100% DiagnosticCheck the live 24-hour dual telemetry graph above. If live incident reports exceed normal baseline, servers are experiencing an upstream disruption. DO NOT reinstall your application, reset your password, or reboot local equipment.
Method 2: Flush Local DNS Cache (Post-Outage Recovery)
Stale Cache Cleansing
Note: Flushing DNS will not fix a dead upstream server. However, after Proton Mail restores service, your computer's local DNS cache may remain stuck pointing to crashed edge IP addresses. Flush DNS to fetch fresh routing records: on Windows Command Prompt run ipconfig /flushdns; on macOS Terminal run sudo dscacheutil -flushcache.
Method 3: Test Public DNS (1.1.1.1 / 8.8.8.8)
ISP Routing Bypass Only
Only useful if your local internet service provider (ISP) has internal DNS resolution failures while Proton Mail is functional worldwide. Point your primary DNS to 1.1.1.1 (Cloudflare) or 8.8.8.8 (Public DNS). If the service itself is down globally, this will not restore it.
Method 4: Clear Client Session Cache & Cookies (3 minutes)
Authentication ResyncWhen cloud authentication clusters fail over, cached OAuth2 tokens or browser cookies can get corrupted, causing infinite re-login loops even after servers recover. Log out completely, clear browser site cookies for Proton Mail, restart your client, and re-authenticate.
Method 5: Check Official Status & Await Engineering Recovery
Upstream ResolutionIf IsDownNow indicates an active major incident, no local changes will resolve the downtime until the provider's operations team deploys a fix. Subscribe to zero-latency webhook alerts below to get notified the second servers recover.
