“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. “We’re sorry, but your account is temporarily unavailable. We apologise for the inconvenience and suggest trying again in a few minutes.You can view the G Suite Status Dashboard for the current status of the service,” the message from Gmail read when it was down.

The outage had affected all of Google’s services: Gmail, Google Drive and its other products were also experiencing issues. The Google search page was working as normal, though.

Downdetector, a website that collects status reports from a series of sources, including Twitter, and reports said that the outage had started occurring from nearly 4:20pm (Pakistan Standard Time).
