Is Twilio down?
Live Twilio status, measured independently. We probe 6 Twilio endpoints from monitoring regions on every continent and record every outage we detect.
Twilio is having problems
Some of our probes are failing. Twilio may be partially down or degraded in specific regions.
Checked every minute from 6 regions on every continent.

About Twilio outages
Twilio sends the SMS one-time codes, voice calls, and WhatsApp messages behind login and notification flows for a very large number of applications. A Twilio incident often looks like users not receiving verification codes rather than an obvious outage.
Carrier-side delivery problems are frequent and are outside what any API probe can see. We probe Twilio's website, REST API, Console, documentation, and the SendGrid email API, and link the official page, which lists carrier and country-level issues.
What we check
Every row is a real monitor in upti.my, running from each of our regions. A failure in some regions marks the row degraded; failures from every region mark it down and open an outage.
| Check | Target | Expects | Interval |
|---|---|---|---|
Website twilio.com is unreachable. | httpwww.twilio.com/en-us | HTTP 200 | 1 min |
REST API The Twilio API is not answering with its normal authentication response. Message and call requests fail. | httpapi.twilio.com/2010-04-01/Accounts.json | HTTP 401 | 1 min |
Console The Twilio Console is unreachable. | httpconsole.twilio.com | HTTP 200 | 2 min |
SendGrid API The SendGrid email API is not answering its normal authentication challenge. Transactional email sends fail. | httpapi.sendgrid.com/v3/user/profile | HTTP 401 | 2 min |
Documentation Twilio's documentation is unreachable. | httpwww.twilio.com/docs | HTTP 200 | 5 min |
Official status feed Twilio's status page is unreachable. | httpstatus.twilio.com/api/v2/status.json | HTTP 200 | 5 min |

Recent Twilio outages we detected
An outage is recorded when a probe fails from every monitoring region and closed when it recovers. Partial and single-region problems show as degraded above but are not listed here.
Twilio is up. Is your Twilio integration?
The incidents that actually hurt are usually not global outages. They are the parts of your own system that depend on Twilio and fail quietly. Here is what teams that rely on Twilio monitor on their side.
Delivery, not just acceptance
Twilio accepting a message does not mean it arrived. Track delivery status webhooks and alert when the delivered rate drops.
Webhook monitoringOTP login flows
A browser check that requests a code through your own flow tells you when signups are blocked, whatever the cause.
Browser checksTwilio status: frequently asked questions
Usually not globally. Carrier filtering and country-specific routing problems are common and are listed on Twilio's official page under the affected country. Our API probe confirms whether Twilio is accepting requests at all.
Look at the per-region results above. If our probes fail from every region, Twilio has a real outage and it will appear in the outage list. If they succeed everywhere, the problem is most likely on your side: your network, DNS resolver, a browser extension, a corporate proxy, or your own integration. If only some regions fail, Twilio may have a regional incident that does not affect you.
Every probe runs at least every five minutes from each monitoring region, and most run every minute. This page refreshes its data every minute. Uptime figures are calculated from all checks across all regions.
Official status is updated by people after an incident is confirmed and often lags the first failures by many minutes; our probes react within a minute or two. In the other direction, we only see public endpoints, so an internal incident may not show on our probes. Use both.
Yes. Use "Notify me about Twilio" above: your upti.my workspace follows these exact checks, free plan included, and every outage opens an incident there and routes alerts to Slack, email, webhooks, or on-call. Nothing is duplicated and it doesn't use your monitor quota. Better still, also monitor your own dependency on Twilio: the API route, webhook receiver, or scheduled job that calls it, so you learn about the failure that actually affects your users.
