No downtime Partial Downtime Not measurable No data

Measured by FlareWarden's own checks of app.frontapp.com from multiple regions every 6 hours. Front's status page sets the verdict above when it reports trouble, but never these figures. Percentages count only checks that returned an availability answer — 73 days measured so far. A dash means that window does not yet hold enough measured days to publish a figure.

What Front does

Front is a shared inbox that puts a team's email, SMS, chat and social messages into one place with assignment and commenting on top. Because it sits in front of channels a business already uses, its status page lists each channel separately: Gmail, O365, SMTP, Twilio, Facebook, Twitter and Front chat each have their own line.

What an outage looks like

New messages stop arriving in shared inboxes while the app itself stays usable, which is the most common shape of a Front incident because individual channels fail independently. Replies sit unsent or send without appearing in the conversation. Assignment, comments and presence stop updating for teammates when real time events is affected, so two people answer the same conversation.

What to do about it

Check www.frontstatus.com and read the channel line rather than the overall banner: Gmail, O365, SMTP, Twilio and Front chat each fail on their own, and a Gmail incident leaves SMTP inboxes working. If Real time events is affected, assume teammates are not seeing your assignments and coordinate elsewhere until it clears. Rules and Workflows is listed separately from message delivery.

Is it down for everyone, or just you?

If this page says Front is up but it is not loading for you, the problem is between you and them. Run a check against any URL from up to 17 cities across three regions to find out where it breaks.

Front outage FAQ

Is Front down or is it just one of my channels?
Front lists Gmail, O365, SMTP, Twilio, Facebook, Twitter and Front chat as separate components, and a single channel failing is more common than a full outage. If one inbox has stopped and others are moving, read that channel's line on www.frontstatus.com. The App line covers the interface itself and is the one to check if nothing loads.
Will messages sent during an outage be lost?
Inbound messages generally remain at the upstream provider until Front can fetch them, so a channel incident usually delays delivery rather than dropping it. Outbound replies are the ones to verify: a message that appears to send while the channel is degraded may not have left. After an incident, check the conversation rather than the compose window.
Why are my teammates not seeing my assignments?
That points at the Real time events component rather than the App. Front updates assignment, comments and presence live, and when real time events degrade the interface keeps working while other people's views stop refreshing. The practical risk is duplicate replies, so agree on who is handling what by another channel until the line goes green.
Do Rules and Workflows keep running during an outage?
Rules and Workflows is its own component, so automations can fail while messages still arrive, or keep running while a channel is down. If tagging, routing or auto-replies have stopped but the inbox is moving, check that line specifically. Do not rebuild a rule that appears broken until the status page is clear, since the rule itself is probably intact.

How we measure this

  • We request Front's public endpoint every 6 hours from Fly.io regions across six continents — the most recent check ran from 8 of them. When you open this page and our last check is more than 30 minutes old, we check again on the spot; those checks update the verdict, never the availability figures.
  • A region counts as down only when it gets no usable HTTP response. A 403 or 429 means the origin answered and refused us, which we report as blocked, never as an outage.
  • A single failing region is treated as probe noise. Our checks only change their verdict when two consecutive cycles agree.
  • Response times average only the regions that actually served the page, so a timeout never inflates the number.
  • Where Front publishes an official status feed we read it too, and the verdict is the worse of what it reports and what our checks see: a major outage of Front itself is Down, trouble with one part of it is Degraded, problems at a few of a provider's many locations change nothing, and a security notice that marks nothing down is shown but changes nothing either. We check the feed every 3 minutes and read it again within minutes of any change to its incidents or components; a reading counts for 45 minutes after the last check that found nothing changed. The availability figures above are our measurement alone.

Get alerted when Front goes down

We check Front every 6 hours, and again when you open this page if that was more than 30 minutes ago. Your own monitors run as often as every 30 seconds, from up to 17 cities across three regions, and tell you the moment something breaks.
