Is Google Drive down, or is it just you?
Multiple independent check rounds from rimetry's monitoring infrastructure, run seconds apart.
Our checks reached Google Drive successfully in every round of the last check cycle.
| Check round | Last check | Success rate (24h) | Avg response |
|---|---|---|---|
| Round 1 | Reachable | 100% | 915 ms |
| Round 2 | Reachable | 100% | 838 ms |
| Round 3 | Reachable | 100% | 619 ms |
| Round 4 | Reachable | 100% | 717 ms |
Based on 3,300 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.

About Google Drive
Google Drive is a cloud-based storage and synchronization service that facilitates file sharing and collaboration via Google Docs, Sheets, and Slides. It includes features like the Drive for Desktop client and shared drives for enterprise teams to manage large volumes of organizational data. Common technical issues include file permission sync errors, slow download speeds, or the inability to generate public sharing links. Users may also experience temporary lockouts from specific documents if the collaborative editing server fails to respond. This page on Rimetry monitors the reachability of Google’s storage servers to confirm whether the platform is functioning as expected for its global user base.
Problems with Google Drive can affect web app, login & authentication, file sharing independently.
