Google’s services — YouTube, Google Meet, Hangouts, Google Maps, Google Calendar, the chatty AI, Google Sheets, and Gmail — are now accessible to users.
The services had faced an outage nearly an-hour-and-a-half-ago and were inaccessible to users; however, Google has said that they have been restored.
“We will continue to work towards restoring service for the remaining affected users […] Please rest assured that system reliability is a top priority at Google and we are making continuous improvements to make our systems better,” a message on the Google Workspace Status Dashboard said.
However, it is still not clear why the services were inaccessible.
