Rubberband while nominating pokestops on GO (never experienced before bug perhaps )

The location marker defaults back despite choosing it at a completely different location, no matter what the pin marker rubber bands to current gps location instead
Noticed it first under my wayfarer nominations but subsequently tried again & same thing happened during another submission attempt on the preview screen

Edit : sorry, my comment was not appropriate, I was thinking about a location edit.
(English is my fourth language, please excuse my mistake)
For remote nominations, choosing a location that's too far away (not sure what the current restriction is) will cause the map to rubberband back as you describe. Try getting within 15km of your nomination location, let's say, for better success. If that doesn't work, try ten km.
I basically can't submit anything right now, not even 50 m away, since it bounces back to my current location. It worked fine within a 10 km radius until yesterday, but since I have to move the map with two fingers instead of one, it just doesn't save the location I chose. It's the same on two phones with two language versions. What's going on here?
Hi , its lesser than 2 kms away ( im aware of the 15 Km radius) & this seems to be a brand new bug , im not sure if i can post reddit links here but there have been multiple users unable to remotely submit anything , even a few metres away , from their current location since past day or 2 to be more exact
Hi , Its related to a new Nomination/submission ( and not Modification of any kinds )
seconded , thats pretty much what i experience too since the last 48 hours or so . This is a bug since technically it was working fine as late as 19th Oct for ANY distance less than 15 KM
In my experience the rubber band effect is not even 10km so I upload and then add the correct wording (in Japanese) within a few hours.
I've had that too even if I'm moving the marker millimeters away.
no worries ****
Happened for two of my nominations that were upgraded later. What a waste. I now also can't submit until this is fixed, which will most likely be weeks... great.
We were just discussing this on Discord. The person who is having the rubberband issue has this screen for nominating.
While my screen looks like this:
Their phone is a Samsung Galaxy S10e and mine is a Samsung Galaxy S10. We both are on version 0.223.1-G-64 of Pokemon Go.
Should this be moved to bug reports @NianticGiffard ?
My screen looks like @cyndiepooh-ING 's, and I also can move my location without it rubberbanding. I have a Samsung Galaxy A51.
Happening to me as well. I took some photos of things today, I normally to this so I can give them a proper write up when it’s dry and warm, tried to remote sub at home (about 2km), I leave the pin at the POI and when I’ve clicked off, the summary page - this has the photo, title, description and the satellite pic of the pin, this shows my current location than that of the pin.
Hope this can get sorted soon.
Edit: This is on Ingress.
Same on iOS 15 here, can't submit anything without physically being on the spot.
Hello Explorers,
Thank you all for sharing your experiences above. I've taken note and will be sending it to the team for investigation. I'll report back when we have more information on the situation.
Safe Exploring!
The problem was completely solved for like a day or so , but now its returned i.e. "use 2 finger in Map to move around" bug is BACK
Basically it was possible to do submissions remotely for a few dozen hours & it happened simultaneously as "2 finger" changed to "1 finger" to scroll & choose location for submission of pokéstops . But now its reversed & agaiin it needs 2 fingers to move around map
is it working for you ???
Yes sorry it has been solved 2-3 weeks ago for me now.
iphone 6s with latest iOS has this problem in PGO now for weeks, nothing fixxed. With ING evrything is normal.
iphone 7 never had the problem ....
i got an 8 & can confirm it still dont work
I am trying to submit a new notation in pokemon go but each time I try to set a location in the game it will change from the place I put on the map to the location I am standing.
@NianticGiffard @NianticDanbocat @NianticVK the problem is still out there .... for months now ...
Sorry for the radio silence. I have followed up with the Wayfarer team about this to look into it on priority.
Are there any news? Seems like we are celebrating the anniversary of this bug now.
