Google News has no official status feed we can read, so this page relies on our own checks and user reports.

Measured uptime from our checks: 100% over 1 day of checks. No public incidents logged since monitoring began 1 day ago.
Response time over the last 24 hours: 473 ms average, 105–1042 ms range across 60 successful checks.

Google News not working for me but the status is fine. What now?
It is usually local: try another browser or the app, switch between Wi-Fi and mobile data, and clear the cache. For news services, watch for news sites and live streams slowing under breaking-news traffic, and weather alerts and radar pages failing during storms. If many people report Google News here at once, the problem is on Google News's side.
