Gmail Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • EnglishMossop Dave Townsend (@EnglishMossop) reported

    @mike_conley @chrisccoulson So using fastmail. Still my question stands. I tried early last year to switch entirely from gmail to something else but where everything fell down was the lack of a good mobile client that fit my needs.

  • RouxSix Roux Six (@RouxSix) reported

    @palafo @xeni Slack is down, but Gmail ok so far

  • Epicanis Epicanis (@Epicanis) reported

    The number of "other people's computer systems" in the workflow these days seems insane to me. Amazon AWS down? Nothing can get done. Jira down? Nothing gets done. Github down? Nothing. Gmail? Nothing. Slack down again? Can't even complain about stuff not getting done...

  • TrisInToledo Tristan Guyette (they/them) (@TrisInToledo) reported

    Slack is down, Gmail is being funky and after feeling fine my entire vacation I’m sick. What a Monday to launch the year.

  • palafo Patrick LaForge (@palafo) reported

    Besides Slack, we're also seeing Downdetector reports that Gmail, Amazon Services, Microsoft Teams, Zoom and other services are having problems, but several of these are working fine for me at least... You?

  • davidlmobley David Mobley (@davidlmobley) reported

    @tiwarylab Right, with Todoist also having some issues (sporadically) and some users reporting problems with Gmail and other Google services, well, it seems the verdict is clear.

  • etupper Liz Tupper (@etupper) reported

    @EugeneBelinski my gmail is still working but I use an email client. @experimatt also mentioned problems with Notion, but it's working for me.

  • CathrynPearce Dr Cathryn Pearce ⚓️🌊 (@CathrynPearce) reported

    I would be so much more successful getting through my email backlog if Gmail would stop freezing up on me. You'd think this issue would have been solved long ago... sigh!

  • AbbieGremillion Abbie Gremillion (@AbbieGremillion) reported

    @gmail I’m having trouble with a password on my account I’ve literally had since 2004... Apparently it couldn’t verify it was me. I’m at my wits end. Please help!

  • leeekz leka (@leeekz) reported

    @SlaterAC_ @DanEwy some weird **** happening rn! gmail and some other ones are also down

  • j2tiger jj (@j2tiger) reported

    Does anyone else think “oh **** I’m getting fired” when Slack or Gmail go down

  • velvetblacksky 🎂birthday kaye🎉 (@velvetblacksky) reported

    @lucifugel no problem!! she also has instagram if you use that, and looks like her email is thistledown.emporium @ gmail.

  • JuanSaaa Juan Escalante (@JuanSaaa) reported

    Can I go back on vacation if Gmail goes down too? Asking for America.

  • bnfrdj Benjamin Fredj (@bnfrdj) reported

    Slack being down handicaps us the same way Gmail did a few weeks ago. This is when you realize it really managed to become the go-to communication tools for teams. 27B $ doesn't seem so expensive all of a sudden.

  • vanewpc vanewpc (@vanewpc) reported

    is gmail down too?

  • sureshmeghzz Suresh Kumar (@sureshmeghzz) reported

    Hy @Google, @gmail and @Googlesupport Problem with my Account. 1. I forgot password. 2. I haven't Google backup code. 3. Prematurely delete recovery email. Attention please - First step phone verification is successful but

  • NelsonMRosario Nelson M. Rosario 🏃‍♂️⚖🇵🇷🌌👨‍💻 (@NelsonMRosario) reported

    Based on the reactions here if both slack and gmail were down at the same time the internet owuld stop

  • CJancelewicz Chris Jancelewicz (@CJancelewicz) reported

    "Slack, Gmail, Microsoft Teams, Zoom, and Amazon Web Services experiencing outages Monday: Sensor Photo via Down Detector." ---> hmm.

  • juliana6 Juliana (@juliana6) reported

    Slack outage cancelling all New Years productivity intentions. I feel this is worse than Gmail going down...

  • juliehubs Julie Hubschman (@juliehubs) reported

    @palafo @kwameopam My gmail is fine, dunkin donuts was slow, robinhood was slow this AM. Mostly just a lot of slow apps

  • GeckoEdit Katherine Kirk (@GeckoEdit) reported

    @pikko The last Gmail outage happened the day I sent off my last batch of publisher cold-call emails. Grrr. How are we supposed to slack off on slack if it's down? You mean, I have no excuse to avoid work? Uhhh... Hey, look at that laundry that needs doing.

  • jawshark87 𝑱𝑨𝒀 🎄 (@jawshark87) reported

    slack down so I've resorted to using gmail and gchat like I'm back in fifth grade

  • shaquiui_king Shaq King (@shaquiui_king) reported

    @googledevs Yo google, I applied to intern with you all. But I can't log into my gmail anymore even though I know the password. I'm so depressed because if I get an offer, I will never know. Can someone please help me?! I keep getting a verification error :(

  • lindsaycrouse Lindsay Crouse (@lindsaycrouse) reported

    Every time Slack goes out or Gmail is down I imagine if the internet stopped working altogether... We have this crazy blind trust that all the infrastructure we rely on but barely understand will always be there

  • Scrilla100 Scott Messer (@Scrilla100) reported

    I bet we'd be able to cut down on the work-email-preamble "Happy New Year!" each time you opened a message if Gmail/Outlook made the fireworks thing like in iMessages. 🎇

  • DoctorLindy Dr. Lindy Ledohowski 👩🏻‍💻🇨🇦📚 (@DoctorLindy) reported

    @erinbury Honestly, I was kind of a-okay with it. It was like that day in December when Gmail was down. Can’t say I hated it.

  • DiscussionBrawl The Point of Discussion ™️ 🔊 (@DiscussionBrawl) reported

    🔴Zoom, Slack, Microsoft Teams, and Gmail, are experiencing outages. Tech stocks are trending down at this hour.🔴

  • tybaum12 tyler (@tybaum12) reported

    Wow! My car’s extended warranty has become such a crisis that they need my social security number and credit card expiration date! Better give them my Gmail login and password to be sure everything is handled safely

  • pikko Crystal Watanabe 🥧 (@pikko) reported

    Slack is down, and this feels almost as bad as a Gmail outage somehow.

  • Mullser Eoin Mullen (@Mullser) reported

    @gmail is there any way of actually getting specific support for an ongoing issue with my gmail (attachments of any size will not upload - ongoing issue for months), the recommended articles do not answer my question and it appears impossible to get on a support chat.
