It’s not just you, Google’s Nest Hubs were hit with an outage late last night

If your “goodnight” routine was met with silence last night, you’re not alone. Google’s Nest Hub devices were hit with a widespread outage that broke functionality entirely, but it’s all back in action this morning.

It’s not just you, Google’s Nest Hubs were hit with an outage late last night

Google's Nest Hub devices experienced a widespread outage last night, causing them to malfunction entirely. Users reported that the devices stopped responding to voice commands, routines failed to execute, and in some cases, the screens went completely blank. The problem began around 12-3am ET, according to various Reddit reports.

Some users attempted to reboot their devices, but found them stuck in the boot-up screen, preventing them from entering the usual Nest Hub experience. Google has since resolved the issue, though the specific cause remains unknown. For those still encountering problems with their Nest Hub, a simple reboot is recommended.
