Google Cloud outage brings down Snapchat, Spotify, Discord, and 'Pokémon Go'

A Google Cloud outage is causing major headaches for some of the most popular apps.

Snapchat, Spotify, Discord, and Pokémon Go all went down for portions of the afternoon Tuesday, after an unspecified issue with Google’s App Engine.

The cause of the issue is unclear, but problems began at 12:35 p.m PT and lasted for nearly hour, according to Google Cloud’s status page. Whatever the issue, though, it also took out several apps which rely on Google’s services for back-end infrastructure.
