Google Play Store Faces Outage As Android Users Not Able To Update Apps For Over 1 Hour

Read Time:2 Minute, 31 Second

Google Play Store is up and running with the majority of users now confirming the same.

On Tuesday, the Play Store went down for almost an hour, causing problems for millions of Android phone users installing and upgrading their apps. According to information provided on down detector.in, the Google Android app store had an outage across the nation, and users from Delhi, Mumbai, Kolkata, and Bengaluru among others complained about the downtime.

Additionally, it appears that the outage had a worldwide influence because users from other countries also tweeted about the Play Store outage. The problem was initially reported on Tuesday at about 10:00 AM IST, and thousands of reports were received up to 11:30 AM IST.

These users reported seeing a warning on the Play Store indicating that Google experienced difficulties sending the data from its server to the Play Store. When users launched the Play Store on their Android phones earlier today, they saw the message “Something went wrong, error retrieving information from the server.”

Google has not provided any new information on the cause of the outage, however, it is probable that the Play Store server opted to take a break. We’ll keep you informed of any new information we get from Google. When the Play Store crashed, many users were upgrading their applications or even preparing to download new ones.

Though millions of Android smartphones were unable to access the app store for almost an hour, Play Store was restored as of the time of writing. These kinds of incidents have made it more compelling for Android phones to support a variety of app shops.

The logical conclusion must take into account the welfare and the benefit of the customers who have made Android a mobile juggernaut over the past ten years while Google fights antitrust regulators from numerous nations.

Google Play back up for most users after global outage

For many customers worldwide, Google Play Store, the official app store for Android handsets, is temporarily unavailable. The Google Play Store app and website are occasionally unreachable, and over 2,500 users have reported this on the Downdetector platform. There has been no official remark on the cause of this outage as of yet.

The problem appears to be exclusive to a few customers. Others have trouble using the Play Store on both mobile and web browsers, while some users can do so without any problems. Similarly to this, some customers are able to update the installed applications from the “My Apps” area but are unable to access the Google Play Store’s main page.

For a brief while, many users had access to the service. However, a number of customers are still unable to use the service, and the corporation has not yet provided a response.
