Google Maps Crashes On Mobile And Web, People Search For Directions

Google Maps stopped working for millions

Google Maps became unavailable on Friday for over an hour, leaving millions of people across the globe directionless. Google Maps stopped working on web, and the mobile map and instead of location, all you could see was a blank page like the one below.

Now that Google Maps is back in service, we are hoping Google gives us details about what caused the downtime.

As per the Downdetector website, Google Maps was unavailable across India, which meant people were finding it hard to move around, especially while driving or riding on the road.

Social media was abuzz with comments on the situation, which is probably happening for the first time in many years. Google Maps going down, according to few, means Apple Maps has a chance to grab the limelight.
