About Google Hangouts

Google Hangouts is communication software developed by Google. It runs on the web, on Android devices, and on iOS, with apps available for those platforms. The official site is hangouts.google.com. It is also known simply as Hangouts or Google+ Hangouts.
Google Hangouts is Google's messaging and video calling service. This status page tracks current problems with the service, including login trouble, weak video or audio, and issues starting or joining a conversation. Check here first before spending time on your own troubleshooting. Reports update as users flag problems in real time.
Google Hangouts combines instant messaging, voice calls, and video conferencing in one place. It runs in the browser at hangouts.google.com and also works as a mobile app. Many people use it for quick chats, group conversations, and small video meetings. Most reported issues fall into a few groups: failed logins, servers not responding, choppy video, distorted audio, and conferences that refuse to start or let people join. Connection-related faults are common during peak hours and usually clear on their own. Before reporting a problem, check your own internet connection and restart the app or browser tab. Make sure microphone and camera permissions are granted, and try signing out and back in. If others in your call can connect fine, the fault is likely local to your setup.

Questions

Is Google Hangouts down right now?

According to reports on this page, Google Hangouts looks fine for most people. Isolated failures still happen — report yours if you are stuck.

When was the last mass outage?

We do not have a recorded mass outage for Google Hangouts yet.

Why can I sign in on my phone but not in the browser?

This usually points to a stale session or cached data in the browser. Clear cookies for hangouts.google.com, or try a private window. If sign-in still fails everywhere, the login service may be having a broader problem worth checking here.

Why is my video quality poor even though my internet seems fine?

Video quality depends on upload speed, not just download. Run a speed test, close bandwidth-heavy apps like streaming or cloud backups, and switch to a wired connection if possible. If quality stays low across different networks, the issue may sit with the service itself.
