Apple has just recently been hit with an outage that has affected a number of its popular services. This includes the likes of its Music, App Store, and even Podcasts, which stopped working for two days straight.
According to a Reuters report, the Cupertino based giant’s official system status page has confirmed that the services have seen resumed operations as of Tuesday (22nd March 2022). Although, this followed after two days of outage. Before this, the Mac App Store, users of Apple Card, Apple Books, iCloud Web Apps, and even the Weather app stopped working yesterday. Apart from these apps, another 11 apps from the iPhone maker’s services stop working on Monday (21st March 2022), including Arcade and Maps as well.
As of right now, it is still unclear as to what exactly caused the outage on the two days. However, a separate report had stated that the company had told its staff that the outage on Monday had been caused by a domain name system or DNS, which is basically an address book of the internet which enables computers to match website addresses with the correct server. At the moment, the brand has also yet to respond to any comments regarding the outage in Tuesday.
