At 4:16PM ET, the company said it was starting to see &#8220;seeing significant recovery&#8221; across its systems. As of 4:59PM ET, the service isn&#8217;t at\u00a0&#8220;fully healthy state&#8221; yet, so if you&#8217;re having trouble launching the app, it may take a bit more time before everything is up and running again.
