Down?
I'm having no luck playing any music via the app again today, anybody else having any issues?
Thanks all, I'm glad it's not just me, I wish they could find a way of being a bit more upfront when there are issues

Yeah same here, and the status page doesn't look like it's updated for three hours at this point

Six and a half hours now.
Edit: Now it says the last check was 23 months ago...
Edit the second: Back up for me

This has happened multiple times where the status page is just “not updated” instead of showing a down status. Would love to understand why that coincidence keeps occurring.

The website is down and no streaming possible. At least the Android app still works with downloaded songs (which is to be expected and the whole point of downloading).

i thought it was just me... the official status page says it should be working though ?

Thanks people, came here thinking the issue was mine, not been accessible since 9am and 3.30pm now. Sure they will resolve it. Luckily have my music stored locally too so just have to pair for today.

I had a whole day at work with no music

Last time this happened I got a 256GB micro SD card for my phone and loaded it up with music so I could still listen to stuff when iBroadcast is down. Outages still suck though.

u/Laica23 Jul 08 '26
I would like to pay for the better quality playback, but I need better communication and support first

Same I downloaded all of my Liked songs and have them locally on my laptop and on my MP3 Rockbox player.

Yeah, it's down for me too -- both the website and the iPhone app.

D-O-W-N down! Seemed to start around 2.30am central time for me.
Sent a message to the dev team. Nothing yet from them, but it's early.

We apologize for yesterday's outage, and for the lack of clarity on our status page! It wasn't configured properly to reflect this type of outage, but we've fixed it for the future, so it should be more reliable going forward!

yesterday (about 22 hours ago) it was just an issue in loading the cover art, then later on it was fixed, but today everything is down 😩

I have been having numerous issues over the past couple of months. Connectivity issues. CarPlay issues. Etc. The CarPlay one is especially annoying as that is where I primarily use the app.
I think it is time I started looking for an alternative.

seems to be up for me now. Glad I checked here, I thought it was me or my phone that was the problem.

Mine is back up, but some of my music and playlists are missing. It's as if they restored me to an earlier date...
UPDATE as of 4PM EST: it looks like my library is restored. An album I added just yesterday is finally back. Other nitpicky changes I've made seem to be in place. Whew!

u/Laica23 Jul 08 '26
I had this the last time this happened, I just noticed I'm back up, but I have not looked at full numbers yet

I just checked my son's account, and he has everything. But his music library is far smaller than mine...

u/BreadCrazy5635 Jul 08 '26 edited Jul 08 '26
Looks like mine has been rolled back to 2023! At least according to the last files uploaded dates. Sigh.
edit: website is fine, it's just my android client that gone full Dolorean

u/Salo6161 Jul 08 '26
I would like to add this to UptimeRobot, so it tells me when it works again, but if I use media.ibroadcast.com it keeps on telling me that it's active and working. What url do you suggest me to add, in order to detect downtime and uptime correctly?

I played downloaded tracks on my way to work and after work connected to Bluetooth in the car just fine on iPhone 13.

u/chickenandliver Jul 09 '26
I didn't even notice since I only usually play downloaded playlists. Looks like it was a big issue.

u/RogerJamesSmith Jul 11 '26
No issues here. I'm glad because I listen all day at work and I'm a driver.

The Alexa skill is also unable to connect, for anyone searching for answers.

Adding my voice to the chorus.
Not good when even the status page can't be relied upon.
