Problems today while trying to Connect

Hi everyone,
today I was teaching when Google fell down, and after that I was trying to make a simple app. I always tell the students to click on Connect -> AI Companion, but today when they read the QR code nothing happened, it doesn't send the app to the cellphone. Anyone had the same problem? or am I doing something wrong?

Thank you all.

Goggle had an outage today for about an hour ( https://www.cnn.com/2020/12/14/tech/google-youtube-gmail-down/index.html ). If you were teaching during the outage, you probably had the issue and now know the probable cause.

Are things working now Miguel?
