Questions

Is Firebase down right now?

Firebase’s official status page says: All Systems Operational. This page checks it again when you load it, at most every 5 minutes.

When was Firebase last down?

The most recent incident Firebase reported was “We are tracking a networking issue that may affect a significant part of the fleet. Devices may be unable to connect to backends that support IPv4 only (IPv6 and dual support are not affected).”, 5 days ago (2026-10-22 22:54 UTC). None of its incidents in the last 90 days were a full outage.

What should I do if Firebase is down?

Pause deploys that depend on it, queue or retry failed jobs once it recovers, and check whether a mirror or cache can cover the gap.

Firebase Hosting is down — is Firestore affected?

No. Firebase reports each product — Auth, Firestore, Realtime Database, Hosting, Cloud Functions — as its own incident row, so a Hosting problem leaves the database alone.

Crashlytics data is missing but the app runs fine?

Crashlytics ingestion is a separate component from the products your users actually touch. Delayed crash reports do not mean your app's backend is down.

How do I tell if Firebase is down for everyone or only for me?

If the status above is operational but Firebase still fails for you, the cause is probably on your side: try another network, clear the cache, or check your own connection. If it shows a degradation or an outage, others are affected too.

How can I get alerted when my own site goes down?

OpenUptime checks your site every minute and sends an alert to Slack, Telegram, email or a webhook the moment it stops responding. It is open source and free to start.
