Temu has had some recent, widely reported issues, but the exact reason it is not working for you today can vary by location and device. The most common causes fall into two broad categories: ongoing technical outages on Temu’s side and problems on the user’s device or network.

Recent Temu issues

In the last few days, many users have reported Temu app crashes, login errors, and problems completing checkout, indicating intermittent or regional outages. Outage-tracking services have recently shown spikes of problem reports for Temu, suggesting that the platform has been unstable for some users even when there is no “official” global outage notice.

Possible reasons today

Several things can explain why Temu feels “not working” right now for you:

• A partial outage or server overload where some regions or features (like search, cart, or tracking) fail while others still load.

• Policy and logistics changes (such as new tariff or shipping rules) that make items show as unavailable or “cannot ship to this address,” which looks like the app is broken even though it technically loads.

What you can try

Simple checks often resolve user-side problems even during a shaky period for the service.

• Update or reinstall the app, clear cache (on Android), and try again on mobile data and on Wi‑Fi to rule out local network issues.

• If you use a VPN or ad blocker, turn it off and retry, and if the app still fails while other shopping apps work normally, the issue is likely on Temu’s side and may require waiting until they stabilize service.
