Troubleshooting

How to fix GeForce Now not working

GeForce Now is up on our end, so if it won't work for you, the problem is most likely on your side. Work through these in order:

Your browser tries to reach nvidia.com over your own connection, right now. Nothing is sent to us or stored.

  1. Check the GeForce Now status page

    Open the official status page and look for an active incident. If the service reports trouble in your region, wait and try again later; if it looks clear, the problem is likely on your side.

  2. Restart the GeForce Now app and router

    Quit the app from the system tray on Windows or the menu bar on Mac, then open it again. Unplug your router for 30 seconds and plug it back in. When your device reconnects, try the same game.

  3. Switch GeForce Now server location

    Open Settings, then go to Server Location. Pick a region near you instead of Auto, apply the change, and launch the game again.

  4. Reinstall the GeForce Now app

    On Windows, open Settings > Apps > Installed apps and uninstall the app. On Mac, drag it to the Trash. Download the current installer again from NVIDIA and launch a game after you sign in.

While GeForce Now is down: what to use instead

  • Install the game locally Because GeForce Now streams copies you already own on Steam or the Epic Games Store, you can download the same game to a capable PC and, if it syncs cloud saves, carry on from where you stopped.
  • Steam Remote Play If you have a gaming PC at home, Steam Remote Play can stream it to a laptop or phone.
  • Xbox Cloud Gaming If your Xbox Game Pass subscription already includes cloud play, you can stream games from its catalogue in a browser or on a phone, though your Steam library won't carry over.
  • Browser version When only the desktop app crashes or hangs on loading, open the service in Chrome or Edge instead; if that fails too, the fault is on the server side.
Your device

About

What happens when GeForce Now goes down

GeForce Now streams PC games from Nvidia's servers to laptops, phones, tablets, and TVs, so you can play supported titles without a gaming PC. When the service fails, your active stream drops and your game library may not load.

Sign-in breaks first. You can open the app but cannot start a stream, and your game library may not load while a game you already launched keeps running. Games that check in with Nvidia's servers, such as multiplayer or cloud save sync, often fail before a single-player title does. Problems tend to be partial: one data center or one game can fail while the rest works, so two people on the same account may see different results.

Questions

GeForce Now FAQ

Is GeForce Now down right now?

The status at the top of this page shows whether user problem reports for the service are above their usual level, counted in 15-minute windows over the last 24 hours. NVIDIA's official status page is the place to confirm an outage if the top of this page points that way. To tell whether the problem is only on your side, try another network or open the app on a second device; if other apps and sites work fine, the issue is local.

Why does GeForce Now say my session has ended?

A session can end when your connection drops or when you leave the game idle too long. Relaunch the app and try the same title again. If only that game fails, the title may be having trouble. If every game ends the same way, power cycle the router.

Why can't I play a game I own on Steam or Epic in GeForce Now?

The service does not carry every title, and publishers decide which games stay available. You also need to link the store account that owns the game, because a Steam copy and an Epic copy are separate. If the game shows in your library but won't launch, unlink and relink that store account, then try again.

Why does GeForce Now keep losing connection or stuttering?

Wi-Fi dropouts and high packet loss cause most stutters and disconnects, so try Ethernet or move closer to the router. Lower the streaming resolution in the app settings and close downloads on other devices. If the official status page shows no outage, your local network is the problem.

Why is my GeForce Now payment or account sign-in failing?

Payment failures can come from the card issuer or an expired billing method, and you can update that in your NVIDIA account. If the app signs you out, reset your password and sign in again. For store linking problems, unlink the store account and link it again.

How we track GeForce Now

The status on this page comes from user-submitted problem reports for GeForce Now, counted in 15-minute windows over the last 24 hours. Each window is compared with the normal level for GeForce Now, so a few complaints on a quiet day don't trigger anything, but a sudden jump well above normal does.

When reports climb well above normal, the status here changes to partial outage or major outage and the chart moves with it. This is separate from GeForce Now's official status page: user reports tend to show a problem early, while the official page confirms the cause. If the two disagree, check both.
