What happens when Letterboxd goes down?

Unable to log movies or diary entries

Users may experience 'Error saving' messages or infinite loading spinners when trying to log a movie or update a review during service degradation.

Lists and profiles not loading

Movie lists, user profiles, or the 'Activity' feed may fail to load or show blank screens during database stress or API outages.

How do I troubleshoot Letterboxd issues?

1
Refresh and clear browser cache
Force refresh the page (Ctrl+F5 or Cmd+Shift+R). Clearing your browser's cache and cookies often resolves temporary loading issues.
2
Check your internet connection
Ensure your Wi-Fi or mobile data is stable. Try switching between networks to rule out local ISP routing issues.
3
Try the mobile app vs web browser
If the website is down, check if the mobile app is still functional, as they sometimes use different API endpoints.
4
Disable browser extensions
Certain ad-blockers or movie-tracking extensions can interfere with Letterboxd's scripts. Try opening the site in an Incognito/Private window.
5
Verify account status
If you're having login issues, double-check that your account hasn't been flagged or that your password hasn't expired.
