[Fixed] Partial Google Gemini outage impacting some prompts 

The Google Gemini app is facing some issues on Monday morning (PT) with some prompts not properly executing.

The mobile apps on Android and iOS, as well as gemini.google.com, are seeing a partial outage today. Some prompts, like “what’s the weather,” do not work and return a “Something went wrong (5)” error message.

We’re also having trouble with phone assistant-level commands on Android. Other prompts like knowledge and creative queries are working normally this morning. No other Google services are impacted.

Officially, Google is “experiencing an outage on the Gemini API affecting many of our models,” with the consumer-facing Gemini app and third-party developers impacted as a result.

Based on preliminary investigation, the root cause of the issue was due to a recent change, which has been rolled back.
