"If you're having trouble with Google Meet today, you're not alone. Google's popular video conference software, which we named the best video conferencing software for small businesses, is suffering a widespread outage. Shortly before 2 p.m. ET, began spiking on DownDetector.com, a popular outage tracking site. After no problems all day, close to 15,000 users suddenly reported issues. Within minutes, users were flooding social media with complaints about missing meetings and classes."
"I was able to get the Google Meet website to load, but it just spins if I attempt to start a meeting. I did find a few workarounds, though. The Meet app loads fine and I was able to make and receive a video call when I tried. Some users are also saying they were able to use Meet in Safari though I wasn't able to test that."
Google Meet experienced a widespread outage shortly before 2 p.m. ET, with DownDetector reports spiking to close to 15,000. Users reported missing meetings and classes and posted complaints on social media. Other Google services such as Workspace, Chat, Gmail, and Search saw smaller increases in problem reports. Some users found partial workarounds: the Meet mobile app loaded and allowed calls, and some reported success using Safari. A similar disruption occurred in June and was resolved in under an hour. Google’s Cloud Service Health Status page shows issues with Gmail, Calendar, and Drive, and Google acknowledged Meet UI loading problems.
