Nothing that uses Google on my phone is working?

[Android Central Question]

Since yesterday, anything involving Google has just stopped functioninf at all on my Galaxy S7. I can't connect to games either Play Games (though it still tries to, usually in the middle of the game thus preventing me from doing anything because the screen is covered by the green loading symbol indefinitely,) the Google search app opens then closes after a second or two, Chrome doesn't open at all, neither do Google account settings...
I'm worried I might have accidentally deleted something while cleaning up my phone, but I have no idea what if so much less how I could fix it.

How about play store?

How about play store?

Oddly that seems to be the one thing that's working, at least sort of. I just updated an app to check and the store did crash, but the app still updated.
Since making the original post I've found out that any game that's already linked to my Google account will launch, last 3-60ish seconds, then crash, too...
Edit: It's also not just Google stuff I don't think, I just got a notif that Android System WebView stopped. I don't actually know what that is though but I searched for it and tried tapping the "webview licensees" in settings which came up and it just crashed again when I did.

Hi, welcome!

Welcome to Android Central! If you have Chrome installed, then Android System Webview should be disabled by default, since Chrome handles Webview's function in Nougat and above. Did you enable it for some reason? Assuming Chrome is still installed and enabled, try disabling Webview.

Also, see what happens if you wipe the cache partition: https://support.t-mobile.com/docs/DOC-28028

Welp, I appreciate the help, but for some reason after restarting it (again. I had already tried this, but third time's the charm I guess?) everything is working normally again.

Glad to hear it! I wonder if Google Play Services might have been in the process of updating, which could impact any or all Google apps.
