It’s not just you: Gmail, YouTube, Play Store and other Google services are having an outage in some regions

Some of Google’s services have been facing server issues for the past few hours, causing problems for users around the world. Services affected at the moment include Gmail, YouTube, and Play Store primarily, with users in India, SEA, Europe, and parts of the USA complaining that they are unable to sign in to any of these services.

Down Detector is showing a spike in complaints related to connectivity issues for Gmail. Here is the outage map for the service at the time of writing:

The G Suite Status Dashboard mentions affected services as:

• Gmail
• Google Calendar
• Google Drive
• Google Docs
• Google Sheets
• Google Slides
• Google Sites
• Google Groups
• Google Hangouts
• Google Chat
• Google Meet
• Google Vault
• Currents
• Google Forms
• Google Cloud Search
• Google Keep
• Google Tasks
• Google Voice
• Admin Console
• Google Analytics
• App Maker
• Google Maps
• Blogger
• Google Sync for Mobile
• Classroom

We can independently confirm that a lot of Google services are affected, though some services like Search and Analytics appear to be working on our end. However, hardware that connects to Google services, such as Google Nest hardware, also appears to be having difficulties even though Google Search is working fine.

Prominent Twitter service handles have not shared any information just yet.

There is currently no ETA on when the services are expected to resume normal functioning. The outage appears to be rather widespread. Curiously, services are working in Incognito, indicating that the issue might actually be centering around Google Accounts and Google’s authentication platform.

We’ll update the article when we get more information on this outage.
