However, users have complained about various issues on Wattpad. One major problem that has been reported is that Wattpad is not working at all for some users. A user said that he finished his first 2 novelettes in the series and he was working on the third but later found that the 2nd is published through Smashwords but it is not on Wattpad. A few said that their Wattpad account was not working. Some said that Wattpad was not accessible at all and some have reported that Wattpad has been showing server problem.
Now the question is why Wattpad is not working? To be very honest, there is no confirmed answer for this question. You Wattpad might stop working because of several issues. Let me tell you bugs and glitches are temporary and are normally resolved in a few hours. One main reason for which your Wattpad might not work is the caching issue. It is very common in many websites and apps nowadays because the more you use an app, the more the cache builds. Another reason can be your internet connection. Your connection might be fluctuating a lot. It is better to change it or contact your service provider for any repair. Also, if you are using a web browser and you have not cleared the cache and cookies for a very long time, it can cause connection issues and you might not be able to open Wattpad.
