Walmart’s online store is down – here’s the latest on the shopping giant’s site problems

Refresh
While there are still over 3,160 reported outages on Down Detector and many Walmart customers taking to X (formerly Twitter) and Threads to note issues loading and using both the site and app, the retailer has yet to comment on the issues.
Judging from the comments on Down Detector, the issues accessing Walmart’s online store appear to be happening across the United States.
Here’s a look at the error page you’ll encounter if you try to click on a department or one of the highlighted products on the homepage. If you’re trying to click on one or are searching, know you’re not alone in receiving the error page.
Beyond not being able to search on Walmart.com, there are also issues loading pages, like Electronics, Home, or Grocery, as well as highlighted product cards on the homepage.
Similar to the ‘Dogs of Amazon’ error, Walmart presents either “Sorry” or “Uh-oh” with a random graphic associated.
Meanwhile, reported outages on Down Detector are over 3,600 as of 3:17 PM ET and still on the rise.

And as we typically see with outages on sites or services, users are posting on X (formerly Twitter) and Threads.
