Common reasons Gmail looks down when it isn't

What to check before blaming Gmail

  1. Open Gmail in a browser to compare with the app.
  2. Check the Google Workspace Status Dashboard for a confirmed incident.
  3. Remove and re-add the account if only one is broken.
  4. Try another network to rule out your connection.

Gmail status — frequently asked

Is Gmail down right now?

Gmail is responding, but slowly — 48 ms to first byte (normal is under 1500 ms). That reading is from itsnotyou's monitoring servers, 3 minutes ago.

Is it Gmail that's down, or is it my internet connection?

It can be either — that's the hard part. The status on this page is measured from itsnotyou's monitoring servers, so Gmail can look healthy here while your own connection is the real problem. The itsnotyou test checks both at once and returns a single verdict in about 10 seconds.

Why is Gmail loading slowly?

A slow Gmail usually comes down to one of two things: Gmail's own servers are responding slowly — itsnotyou measures time to first byte, and anything over 1500 ms is flagged as slow — or your local connection is the bottleneck. Running the test tells the two apart.

How often is Gmail's status checked?

Gmail is probed every few minutes, around the clock, from itsnotyou's monitoring servers. The verdict and the 24-hour response-time history on this page update automatically.
