Google services are back on track after global outage

The “YouTube” team tweeted on their “Twitter” account that they are “aware” of the problems that disrupted the platform around the world and that they were working to fix them.

The tweet read: “Update: We are back to work! You should be able to access YouTube again and enjoy the videos as usual.”

Services seem to be making a comeback, but with some glitches (like Gmail’s address bar not working properly).

All in all, it appears that a large group of Google services were interrupted for about an hour today, Monday, December 14.

And the world’s dependence on Google services generated a large number of reports through Twitter and DownDetector, where the number of problems reported on YouTube reached more than 100,000 complaints. And some users found that YouTube would still work if they visited it incognito without logging in. Other service apps like Docs and Meet also crashed.

Users also reported that smart home devices integrated with the Google Assistant were experiencing problems.

The company told “Google” that its services gradually began to work again and wrote via an Internet blog: The solution to the Gmail problem has begun for the vast majority of affected users. We will continue working on restoring service to the other affected users, “he said, noting that these reforms also include all the other services that were broken.
