Is Gmail down, or is it just you?
Multiple independent check rounds from rimetry's monitoring infrastructure, run seconds apart.
Our checks reached Gmail successfully in every round of the last check cycle.
| Check round | Last check | Success rate (24h) | Avg response |
|---|---|---|---|
| Round 1 | Reachable | 100% | 610 ms |
| Round 2 | Reachable | 100% | 587 ms |
| Round 3 | Reachable | 100% | 523 ms |
| Round 4 | Reachable | 100% | 554 ms |
Based on 3,268 automated checks in the last 24 hours. Each round is an independent pass over the same endpoint, seconds apart — a single failing round is not an outage; repeated failures across rounds are.
What can be affected on Gmail?
These are the main Gmail functions that can experience separate issues.
- Login & authenticationTest signing in from a private browser window or another device
- Email deliveryCheck the spam folder and a second address before resending
- SearchTry a simpler query — search can fail while the rest works
- Web appCompare the web app with the mobile app — they can fail separately
- Mobile appForce-close and reopen the app, then retry on mobile data
This list shows which parts can fail on their own. It does not mean any of them is failing right now — the live status above is the only claim we make about the current state.

About Gmail
Gmail is a core communication tool used for sending and receiving electronic mail, managing labels, and organizing messages via the primary, social, and promotions tabs. The service integrates directly with Google Drive for attachments and uses IMAP and SMTP protocols for third-party client access. When disruptions occur, users often experience stuck outboxes, failures in the search index, or synchronization errors on mobile applications. This Rimetry status page tracks the real-time availability and latency of Google's email infrastructure to verify if the server-side systems are functioning correctly.
Problems with Gmail can affect login & authentication, email delivery, search independently.
Gmail (mail.google.com) is a communication service monitored continuously by rimetry's automated checks. We probe its public endpoints every 60 seconds in repeated independent rounds to detect outages and latency spikes the moment they happen.
Right now Gmail is reporting as operational across our probes, with an average response time of 51 ms and 100.00% uptime over the last 24 hours. Most users connecting to mail.google.com are seeing it work normally.
Common causes of disruption for services like Gmail include backend API failures, region-specific routing problems at the CDN or ISP layer, expired TLS certificates, DNS misconfigurations, and capacity spikes during major events. rimetry combines automated probes, vendor status feeds, and verified community reports to give you a single high-confidence answer instead of guessing.

What is Gmail?
Google's email service.
Gmail is part of our Communication category. You can also review current trending outages across the internet.
Common issues
- · Messages stuck sending
- · Calls dropping or failing to connect
- · Notifications delayed
- · Login or device-linking errors
Similar patterns often surface across other communication providers — cross-check against the global outage map.
Troubleshooting
- · Test signing in from a private browser window or another device
- · Check the spam folder and a second address before resending
- · Try a simpler query — search can fail while the rest works
- · Compare the web app with the mobile app — they can fail separately
- · Check whether messages fail to send or fail to arrive — they're different problems
- · Test a call on mobile data to rule out firewall or Wi‑Fi restrictions
- · Restart the app so it re-establishes its websocket connection
- · Confirm notification permissions if alerts are silent
- · Try the web client to see whether the desktop app alone is affected
- · Check Gmail's official social channels
