On Thursday afternoon, users experienced an outage affecting Google Home/Nest and Spotify, resulting in error messages. Previous music and podcasts remained accessible, and some users reported functionality. Downdetector has been tracking these issues, while Cloudflare indicated broad service outages leading to various platforms facing connectivity problems. Despite Google Cloud's status page showing no active outages, this broader issue with Cloudflare may be contributing to the disruptions across multiple apps and services. The situation is under investigation, with updates expected as they assess the full extent of the impact.
On Thursday afternoon, many people with smart home setups connected to Google Home / Nest, or who are trying to stream music on Spotify, are coming up empty.
We've seen issue reports on Downdetector and some error messages pop up for other large cloud-based services, too, like Snapchat and Discord, but so far, it's not entirely clear what is causing the problem.
