Uh-oh! Looks like the Google app on Android has hit a major snag! 🔧
From late Saturday to early Sunday, a large number of Android users experienced crashes when using the Google search app. Many users reported seeing the dreaded \"Google keeps stopping\" error message popping up on their phones.
Downdetector.com received over 7,000 problem reports, indicating that the issue was widespread. 📱🌐 Social media was flooded with screenshots and complaints as users tried to figure out what was going on.
According to Google's status dashboard, the service issue began around 11 p.m. Pacific Time (0600 GMT). While Google Search is becoming stable again, the team is still working on a fix. If you're still facing the issue, Google's advice is to clear the cache and data for the Google app on your phone. 🛠️
In the meantime, if you need to search the web on your Android device, try opening a browser like Chrome or Firefox and visiting google.com directly. Alternatively, you might explore other search engines like Bing, Yahoo, Baidu, Yandex, or DuckDuckGo. 🌐🔍
The good news is that other Google services and Google Search on other platforms don't seem to be affected. So you can still watch that funny cat video on YouTube! 😺🎬
