Is Midjourney Down? Live status & outage reports

Service info and troubleshooting

Images Won't Generate After Prompt

If you type a prompt and nothing happens — no queue, no progress bar — the most likely culprit is a stalled connection between your Discord client and Midjourney's bot. Restart Discord completely (not just close the tab), re-enter the command, and check that the bot is still present in your server or DM thread. If the bot shows as offline, the generation servers may be under heavy load — wait a few minutes and try again.

Subscription Payment Not Going Through

Failed billing usually comes down to three things: your card issuer blocking a foreign transaction, an expired card on file, or a mismatch between the billing address and what your bank has on record. Go to midjourney.com/account, remove the current payment method, and re-add it with the exact details your bank expects. If the charge still fails, try a different card or contact your bank to whitelist the transaction.

Bot Stops Responding Mid-Session

This happens when the Discord session token expires or the bot loses permission in the channel. Check that the Midjourney bot still has message and attachment permissions in that specific channel. If permissions look fine, log out of Discord, clear the cache, and log back in.

Generated Images Not Loading

• Open the image in a new tab — sometimes the embed fails but the direct URL works fine.
• If the thumbnail shows but the full image won't load, your browser may be blocking large media. Disable aggressive ad blockers temporarily.
• Switching from the browser version to the desktop app often resolves persistent media loading issues.
• If nothing loads at all, check whether your network restricts CDN traffic — corporate or university Wi-Fi sometimes does this.

Login Errors on the Website

Midjourney uses Discord OAuth for authentication, so a login failure usually means something is off on the Discord side. Clear cookies for both midjourney.com and discord.com, then try signing in again. If you see a 'authorization declined' error, revoke Midjourney's access in your Discord app settings under Authorized Apps, then reconnect it from scratch.

Interface Freezes During Upscaling

Upscaling jobs are heavier than standard generations, and the web UI can hang if your browser tab runs low on memory. Close unused tabs, refresh the page, and resubmit the upscale. Chrome users can try enabling hardware acceleration in browser settings — it makes a noticeable difference with image-heavy interfaces.
