Canonical's Snap Store will undergo scheduled maintenance from July 5 at 22:00 UTC to July 6 at 02:00 UTC, during which users will be unable to install new snaps or update existing ones. Although applications already installed will continue to function normally, any pending updates will be delayed until the maintenance is complete. Users are advised to finish any critical updates before the maintenance period begins, as commands like snap install and snap refresh will fail during this time. The maintenance is planned for a weekend evening to minimize disruption, allowing the store to resume services automatically afterward

Snap Store Maintenance July 5-6: No Installs or Updates Allowed

Canonical's Snap Store will undergo scheduled database maintenance from 22:00 UTC on Saturday, July 5, to 02:00 UTC on Sunday, July 6, 2026. During this four-hour window, users cannot install new snaps or update existing ones as api.snapcraft.io will reject all requests. Applications already installed on your system will continue to function normally, though any pending updates will stall until the service resumes. No user action is required; services will automatically resume after the maintenance closes, so you should complete any critical updates before the 22:00 UTC start.
