The virtual assistant is spitting out errors instead of controlling smart home devices and answering questions. “According to multiple online complaints, there’s a Google Home outage affecting a significant portion of users,” tech website, Android Police, reported on Monday. To know if Home is affected, users need to use a trigger phrase and it will respond with “Hmm, something went wrong. Try again in a few seconds,” or “There was a glitch. Try again in a few seconds.”
“Most users say the issues started popping up in the last day or two and today Google Home has a nearly 100 percent failure rate,” the report said. What is interesting is that other devices with Google Assistant are working fine.
While some owners reported that a hard reset of ‘Home’ fixed the issue, many others still had problems after resetting.
Early in May, according to
reports , Google had introduced ‘Assistant’, at its annual developer conference, and could understand different voices while Siri, Apple’s virtual assistant, had difficulty in understanding Indian accents.
