Critical Bug Report: 100% Build Failure Rate and Poor UX Since New UI Launch in AI Studio
I’m reporting what I believe is a very severe issue.
-
Poor Code Iteration: To start, the Google Code Assistant’s behavior is frustrating. It rewrites an entire large file for even a one-line code change.
(With all due respect, this development experience is significantly worse than Cursor, Claude Code, and even newer tools like Qoder and Github Copilot.) -
Constant Build Failures: The most critical problem with the new UI is the build success rate. Previously, it might have succeeded about 20% of the time. Now, it fails nearly 100% of the time. The builds are interrupted with various red and white exclamation mark icons, but with no explanation as to why. I’ve ruled out local issues (DNS, VPN, network instability) as all my other development tools are working perfectly. This points directly to a new problem within AI Studio.
-
Unusable Mobile Preview: The new preview layout is a disaster for mobile development. While it offers a large preview space for desktops, it lacks the customizable windows and UI that platforms like Firebase provide. This makes the UI/UX completely unsuitable for debugging mobile projects. When the window is narrowed to a mobile viewport, the code editor’s layout becomes distorted and awkward. I honestly have to ask: who was the genius that decided to remove friendly support for mobile previews?

such As [Forgetting to update the code]、[CheckPoint can not work] … …
I use ‘Build’ for over 8 hours a day. Believe me, I have cultivated more than enough patience to tolerate a massive number of bugs. But you have sent the model’s success rate into a nosedive, and it is driving me to the point of breakdown and depression. -
Concluding Thoughts: In closing, I want to say that I still have high hopes for this product and want to see it succeed. If the build success rate were not at zero, the core cloud development experience would still be quite good. (The old Build had its own share of problems, like the persistent and extremely laggy scrolling, but it didn’t break the fundamental convenience of a cloud IDE. Many of those issues aren’t much better on Firebase anyway. In fact, if we disregard the build failures, the current cloud IDE experience here is superior to Firebase’s.)
