Multiple Google services and websites including YouTube, Gmail, Google Assistant, and Google Docs have been hit with a widespread outage. Google’s Workspace Status Dashboard is now showing an outage for all services appear of the company.
Downtime site indicators are showing big spikes for services dropping starting from around 11.30AM UK time. Google.com itself appears to still be working, albeit sluggishly. Ditto Chrome.
Some have surmised that it’s an issue with Google Accounts — which is also not working — although even if you try to sign into Google services incognito they are not working.
According to Google’s service status page, the outage is affecting all Google services.
“We’re aware of a problem with Gmail affecting a majority of users. The affected users are unable to access Gmail. We will provide an update by December 14, 2020 4:12:00 AM PST detailing when we expect to resolve the problem. Please note that this resolution time is an estimate and may change.”
