One of the biggest fears of the users is that the connection of WhatsApp is dropped and they are incommunicado. Although there are still phone calls and SMS, these usually have an additional cost that we save with WhatsApp, so when the WhatsApp servers fail, users often make quite a lot of noise on social networks.

We have several ways of knowing the status of WhatsApp in real time, however, many of them are based on the use of third-party and closed-source tools that are not really known on what basis to offer the information. In this tutorial we will show you how to check the status of WhatsApp in real time using official services of the company.

Through Twitter

WhatsApp has an official Twitter account from which we can check your status in real time. When a problem occurs in the network, the person in charge of updating this social account informs about the status of the same so that it publishes a message as soon as a connection failure is detected.

At the moment when the network is restored and everything is working correctly again, the same account informs that the network has been restored and that the entire service returns to work without problems.

We can check this WhatsApp status account from the following link .

From the WhatsApp client itself

The WhatsApp client has a function that informs us of the status of the services and tells us if there is a problem with the connection.

To do this we must enter our WhatsApp and open the menu "settings"> "Help"

Here we click on the option "Service status" and it will show us a message that will indicate the status of the WhatsApp servers, in our case, running without problems.

In case the messages do not reach the recipients or we can not connect, if the status of the servers is correct it is possible that it is a failure of our internet connection due to WiFi or we do not have mobile data connection. It is also possible that the servers have been dropped and the company has not been given time to notify, so we must also have patience and wait a few minutes to see if the connection is restored.
