## Updates from Apify
### 2025-03-16 01:46 UTC: identified
Since 00:10 UTC, the Google SERP proxy has experienced increased response times. This may cause requests using the proxy to time out. As a temporary workaround, we recommend increasing the request timeout. We apologize for any inconvenience and are working toward a swift resolution.

### 2025-03-16 10:55 UTC: resolved
We have implemented a fix, and the response time has been recovering since 09:30 UTC. As of 10:30 UTC, the response time has returned to normal. We will continue to monitor the response time. We apologize for any inconvenience caused.

From the builder: does your app depend on Apify? [Sazabi](https://www.sazabi.com/?utm_source=down-guide&utm_medium=markdown&utm_content=apify) detects problems in your own logs without hand-written monitors, and you can ask it in plain language which errors mention Apify.
