Troubleshooting

How to fix Google not working

Google 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 google.com over your own connection, right now. Nothing is sent to us or stored.

Open Google in a private window
In Chrome, use the incognito shortcut for your system: Ctrl+Shift+N on Windows, Command+Shift+N on Mac, then load google.com. If the page works, open chrome://extensions and turn off extensions one at a time, or go to chrome://settings/content/all and delete saved data for google.com; a cookie or add-on is blocking the normal profile.
Test google.com elsewhere
Open google.com in another browser or on your phone. If it works there, compare the first browser's proxy setting under Settings > System > Open your computer's proxy settings and clear saved data for the site; if it fails everywhere, the problem is the network or DNS.
Check Google's official status and help
Open the official status page at https://status.search.google.com/ and the help centre at https://support.google.com/ if the page still fails on one device. The status page is the company's own incident feed, and the help centre covers account and browser fixes.
Run nslookup for google.com
Open Terminal on Mac or Command Prompt on Windows and run nslookup google.com. If the command returns no address, change the DNS servers on the device or router, or connect through a mobile hotspot to test the local network.

While Google is down: what to use instead

Bing When Google search pages won't load or keep timing out, Bing gives you similar web results and has its own image search and maps, so most lookups still get done.
DuckDuckGo Fine for quick lookups.
The website instead of the app If the Google app hangs on a blank screen while your connection works, open the site in Chrome or Safari, because the app and the browser page don't always fail together.
Change your browser's default engine Most browsers let you switch the address bar to Bing or DuckDuckGo in settings; you can switch back once the service recovers.

Your device

Fix Google on Windows, Mac, Android and iPhone

Google on Windows

Fix: Clear your browser cache and cookies, or try accessing Google using an Incognito window. You can also temporarily disable third-party antivirus software that might be blocking the connection.
Check: Attempt to open Google in a different web browser, or check if other websites load to rule out a general internet outage. You can also use network diagnostics to test your connection to the site.

Command Prompt

ping google.comTest whether Google's servers reply

nslookup google.comCheck that Google's DNS resolves

tracert google.comTrace where the connection drops

ipconfig /flushdnsClear the DNS cache, then reload

Google on Mac

Fix: Clear the browsing history and cache in Safari or Chrome, and temporarily disable any active browser extensions. Restarting your Mac can also resolve underlying network issues preventing Google from loading.
Check: Try loading Google in a private browsing window to see if browser data is causing the issue. Check if other websites load successfully to confirm your internet connection is active.

Terminal

ping -c 4 google.comTest whether Google's servers reply

nslookup google.comCheck that Google's DNS resolves

traceroute google.comTrace where the connection drops

sudo dscacheutil -flushcache; sudo killall -HUP mDNSResponderFlush the macOS DNS cache, then reload

Google on Android

Fix: Clear the cache and data for the Google app in your device settings, or check the Google Play Store for any pending updates. If the issue persists, try restarting your Android device.
Check: Try searching on Google using a web browser instead of the app, or switch between Wi-Fi and mobile data. Check if other Google services like YouTube are functioning normally.

Google on iPhone and iPad

Fix: Clear Safari's history and website data, or reinstall the Google app from the App Store if you are using the dedicated application. Restart your iPhone or iPad to refresh your network settings.
Check: Check if the Google app has cellular data permissions enabled in your iOS settings. You can also try loading Google in a private Safari tab to rule out cached data issues.

Same time

Problems at the same time as Google

Since 5 October, all 29 of Google's spikes in problem reports overlapped a spike at another service.

When several services get problem reports at once, something they share, such as a cloud host or a network, can be the real cause. Matching times alone do not prove it.

Busiest times

When people report Google problems

The busiest hour for reports about Google is 16:00 to 17:00 Central European time, and the busiest day is Thursday.

Each bar is the average number of user reports in that hour, or on that day of the week, from 24 days of reports since 5 October 2026. The busiest bar is highlighted. Spikes in reports are left out, so one outage does not set the pattern.

About

What happens when Google goes down

Google is the search site at google.com, with Search, Maps, Gmail, and Images; you and many people in the US use it for everyday lookups and its apps. An outage interrupts search results, map directions, image thumbnails, and account sign-in; the status at the top shows whether user problem reports sent to a public outage-reporting service are above their usual level in 15-minute windows over the last 24 hours, and this page does not check the service itself.

During an outage, search results may stall or show a plain error page, while autocomplete and image thumbnails fail to appear. Sign-in can break first. When that happens, Gmail can open to a loading screen or ask you to sign in again; Maps may show a blank map or keep old directions on screen, and problems are often partial or regional, so one app may fail while another works. A reload or a different network can sometimes clear a local issue.

Questions

Google FAQ

Is Google down right now?

The status at the top of this page shows whether user problem reports for Google are above their usual level, counted in 15-minute windows over the last 24 hours. Check the official status page at https://status.search.google.com/ next. If that page looks clear, test another browser or network, then try a different device; when other sites load and only this service fails, the problem is likely on your side or your connection.

What does the 'Our systems have detected unusual traffic from your computer network' message mean on Google Search?

That message means automated requests from your network triggered a check, often after a VPN or a browser extension changed your traffic. Finish the reCAPTCHA and try a private window; if it keeps happening, switch networks and review your extensions. A shared connection can trigger the same block.

Gmail won't load while Google Search works. What should I try?

Open the Gmail app or the web inbox in another browser, then sign out and back in if the page stalls. A stale login or a browser extension can cause this while Search stays fine. Test mobile data to rule out Wi-Fi.

Google Maps says it can't connect. What should I check?

Switch between Wi-Fi and mobile data, then turn on location and reopen the app; the app needs a working data connection to draw the map and route. If the message repeats, update Maps and clear its cache on Android.

Why was my Google Pay card declined?

Your bank may be blocking the charge; check the card number and billing address, then try another card. If the details are correct, call your bank to ask about the decline.

How we track Google

The status on this page comes from user-submitted problem reports for Google, counted in 15-minute windows over the last 24 hours. Each window is compared with the normal level for Google, 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 Google'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.
