What is a YouTube Down Detector?
A YouTube Down Detector tells you whether YouTube is unreachable because of your local network or because YouTube services themselves are failing. FrontendGeek first checks your device connectivity, then runs homepage, thumbnail CDN, embed player, and streaming asset probes on our servers so the status is not limited to your browser alone.
Benefits
• Separates local network problems from YouTube outages
• Server-side probes for homepage, CDN, embed, and streaming
• Weighted overall connectivity score with clear pass/fail details
• Works without a YouTube login
• Free browser tool for creators, support teams, and viewers
When to use YouTube Down Detector?
Videos will not load on your device
Confirm whether the issue is your Wi‑Fi/ISP or a broader YouTube availability problem before troubleshooting apps or accounts.
Support and customer success checks
Quickly verify YouTube reachability when users report blank players, missing thumbnails, or failed embeds.
Embed and site integrations
Check homepage and embed endpoints when embedded players stop initializing on blogs or product pages.
CDN / thumbnail failures
See if i.ytimg.com thumbnail delivery is failing even when the main site still responds.
Partial or regional degradation
Review per-probe results when YouTube feels slow or intermittently broken rather than fully offline.

Frequently Asked Questions - FAQs
Why do you check my network first?
If your device is offline, a YouTube outage report would be misleading. We unlock the down check only after basic connectivity passes, and we show possible local network causes when it fails.
Are the YouTube probes run in my browser?
You see a client-side snapshot for transparency, but the scored YouTube down detection (homepage, CDN, embed, streaming) runs on FrontendGeek servers so results are not limited to your local region alone.
What does the overall connectivity score mean?
Network Check is 20%. Server-side homepage (25%), thumbnail CDN (20%), embedded player (20%), and streaming asset (15%) make up the rest. 85%+ usually means up, 50–84% degraded, and below 50% likely down or unreachable.
Can this detect outages in every country?
Server probes reflect reachability from our infrastructure. Combined with your local network snapshot, that helps separate “my network” vs “YouTube services,” but it is not a full multi-region mesh monitor.
Do I need a YouTube account?
No. These utility tools work without a YouTube login. Channel stats and metadata use public page data only.
Is this free to use?
Yes. FrontendGeek YouTube utility tools are free to use in your browser.
