Google Home is acting up, but Google?s already got a fix on the way

[phillynews215]

TL;DR

• Some users are currently seeing errors in the Google Home mobile apps, although the web version appears to work fine.
• Google has acknowledged the bug and confirmed that a fix is rolling out.
• One person found that clearing the cache and storage, plus switching to a different Wi-Fi network, fixed the problem.

If we curated a list of all the Google Home issues we keep running into, it would be pretty lengthy. In the past month alone, we’ve reported an alarm routines and smart lights bug, along with a strange bug where connected devices refused to answer simple questions. Now, some users are experiencing a flurry of errors in the Home app, and it looks like Google is already sending out a fix.

An affected user detailed their ordeal on Reddit, explaining how Google Home has become “very slow” and displays errors when tapping or interacting with any of their linked devices. They added that reinstalling the app throws up an “Internal error encountered” message along with the loading indicator.
