Login and authentication failures
Users may see 'We're having trouble logging you in' errors, session timeout issues, or social login (Facebook/Google) failures during outages.
Lesson loading and completion errors
Lessons may fail to load, freeze mid-exercise, or not register completion, preventing progress and streak maintenance.
Streak and XP sync issues
Daily streaks may not update, XP points may not register, or leaderboard rankings may freeze during platform degradation.

Audio playback may fail, microphone permissions may be rejected, or speaking exercises may not grade responses correctly.
Troubleshooting Steps Before You Assume Duolingo Is Down
- 1
Force quit and restart the app
Close Duolingo completely from your app switcher, wait a few seconds, then reopen it to clear temporary glitches.
- 2
Check your internet connection
Switch between Wi-Fi and cellular data to rule out network issues. Duolingo requires stable internet for lesson sync.
- 3
Update to the latest version
Outdated app versions can cause compatibility issues. Check the App Store or Google Play for available updates.
- 4
Clear app cache (Android only)
On Android, go to Settings > Apps > Duolingo > Storage > Clear Cache. This can resolve many loading and sync issues.
- 5
Try the web version
If the mobile app is down, access Duolingo.com on a desktop browser to maintain your streak or continue lessons.
