Description:
If you can't get a stream to start or sign-in, you're not alone
FULL STORY ======================================================================
If you cant get Hulu to load either a classic rewatch of Only Murders In The Building , another on-demand classic, or even Live TV, youre not alone. Further, if you cant even see into Hulu like myself on an iPad and my colleagues on other devices read on for the latest updates.
It appears that Hulu is in the midst of a pretty sizable outage with reports on Downdetector spiking to over 12,300 as of 10:03AM EST. Im also beginning
to see reports of frustrated users who simply want to stream on social platforms like X (formerly Twitter) and Threads.
Interestingly enough, Disney+ appears to still be working just fine in the United States well, more specifically in New York on an iPhone or iPad and
I can even still access Hulu content. Still, the fact that a device thats already logged into Hulu cant load content, and I cant even sign into the platform on another device, spells problems.
Stick with us as we live blog this Hulu outage and see just how long one of the best streaming services around has problems for. A big Hulu outage
As of 10:40 AM ET, Down Detector has spiked to over 13,000 reported outages for Hulu, with comments spelling issues watching content either on-demand or through Live TV and I can't get it working on an iPhone or an iPad.

While Hulu doesn't seem to have a status page, the streaming service confirms an issue and tells frustrated streamers its help is on the way. Via the @HuluSupport handle on X (formerly Twitter), it's confirmed there's an issue with a few users who have tweeted asking what's going on.
@HuluSupport writes to one user, "We hear you! Our developers are on the case and working to resolve this as we speak. We appreciate your patience!" We
hear you! Our developers are on the case and working to resolve this as we speak. We appreciate your patience! April 8, 2025
And in another, it offers more reassurance but stops sorts of saying what exactly is causing the issues. It seems that many users are reporting are reporting getting automatically logged out and unable to sign back-in or are seeing basic webpages with a 503 error. We're sorry to hear you're also experiencing this! Our team is working to resolve this behavior ASAP. We really appreciate your patience while we work on a fix! April 8, 2025
Here's the official statement that @HuluSupport has posted to X (formerly Twitter): Having issues logging in? If so were on it! Our team has
identified the issue, and we hope to have things back up and running soon. April 8, 2025
This confirms an issue with logging in, but the TechRadar team, as well as other users who have posted on social media, are also having issues when already logged in or are being forced to log in after being signed out.
