There were reports that Google was briefly down globally on Tuesday, with users in the U.S., U.K., Australia, Singapore and elsewhere reporting issues with the search engine, owned by Alphabet.

DownDetector.com confirmed that the website was “having problems.”

At its peak in the U.S., more than 40,000 people reported that Google wasn’t working.

The figure quickly fell and stayed below 100 since around 2 a.m. ET.

“We’re aware of a software update issue that occurred late this afternoon Pacific Time and briefly affected availability of Google Search and Maps, and we apologize for the inconvenience,” the company said in a statement.

“We worked to quickly address the issue and our services are now back online.”

Google was trending on Twitter briefly, with many users using the hashtag #GoogleDown.

Some posted screenshots of error messages and others joked about trying to search to check if the search engine was down.
