Synthesia down? The answer is at the top of this page. Appys checks Synthesia’s official status page as you arrive, so what you see is never more than a few minutes old. Below is what to check on your side, what to do while you wait, and how to hear when it’s fixed.
Synthesia down for everyone, or just you?
If the status above says Synthesia is working normally but it isn’t working for you, the problem is most likely closer to home. Press Is it just me? at the top of the page: your own device and our server both try to reach synthesia.io, and the answer tells you which side the problem is on.
Then try these quick checks:
- Open Synthesia on another network, such as mobile data instead of Wi-Fi.
- Try a different browser or a private window, to rule out an old cache or a browser extension.
- Restart your router if lots of websites are slow, not just this one.
- Make sure your device’s date and time are set automatically: a wrong clock can stop secure connections.
- Start a new chat and ask something short. Long chats, big files and image or voice requests are often the first things to fail when an AI service is under strain.
Synthesia down? What to do while you wait
- Check which part is affected. Synthesia splits its status into 4 parts, listed under What Synthesia reports on above, so a problem in one may not touch the ones you use.
- Copy your prompt somewhere safe before you retry, so a failed answer doesn’t lose your work.
- Expect slow answers and usage limits before a full outage: AI services often slow down or cap requests first.
- For anything urgent, ask another assistant, and check its answer as carefully as you would Synthesia’s.
- Keep this page open: the status changes by itself when Synthesia posts the fix, so there’s no need to keep refreshing.
If it drags on and the work can’t wait, the alternatives near the top of this page are other AI image, video and voice tools that are working right now.
Why apps like Synthesia go down
AI services go down most often when demand spikes, after a new model or feature launches, or when the data centres and chips they rely on have problems. Even big outages are often partial, hitting one feature, one region or one group of users rather than everyone. That’s why Synthesia can work fine for you while its status page reports a problem, or the other way round.
How Appys checks Synthesia
Every status on this page comes from Synthesia’s official status page, where Synthesia’s own team posts problems and fixes. Its status page covers 4 parts: Editor, Video generation, Video Sharing and Public API. Appys reads it whenever someone opens this page and regularly in between, keeps a record of every problem it posts and works out the 90-day uptime from that record. We never change what Synthesia says, and nobody can pay to change a status or a record.
A quiet status page doesn’t always mean nothing is wrong: some companies post small problems late, or not at all. That’s why this page also shows how openly Synthesia reports its problems.
How long do Synthesia outages last?
It depends on what broke. Small problems are often fixed within the hour, while a big outage can take most of a day. The history above lists every problem Synthesia has posted recently, when each one started and how long it took to fix, so you can see what’s normal for Synthesia rather than guessing. While a problem is open, the latest update from Synthesia is shown at the top of this page.
