Hi there, I've confirmed that there's nothing that would be preventing your nominations from being reviewed and voted on. It's possible that there's an extremely limited number of reviewers in your area and/or a large backlog of nominations waiting for review. Thanks for understanding!
-
Hey there, Can you offer a screenshot of exactly which component of Wayfarer you're having difficulty with?
-
Hey there, Sorry to hear that you're having this trouble, I reviewed this situation with the Wayfarer team and they'd like to confirm which account ID you were using prior to losing access to Wayfarer. They suspect that you may be logging in with a different account attached to your Wayfarer progress, which is why you've…
-
Hey there, As @LukeAllStars-PGO said, there are some nominations that need to be reviewed by our abuse team before they enter into the queue for review and voting. During this time, your nominations will not appear in the nominations management section of the Wayfarer site. We're looking into making this more clear so that…
-
Hey there, We previously had a bug that was impacting Wayfarer metrics progress not being pushed to your in-app medal count. We fixed this on Friday (Dec 11) but you may have to do a few reviews before the numbers refresh. Can you confirm that you're still experiencing this issue?
-
Hey there, While this question is focused on Pokémon GO and this forum is focused on Niantic Wayfarer, I did some digging about how this newly announced ticketed event will interact with the Wayfarer Poland Challenge reward to address your concern. Basically the Poland Wayfarer Challenge reward will affect which Pokémon…

Hey folks, Good news - the team has pushed a fix for this bug earlier today. You should see your metrics refresh in-app to reflect the correct numbers. One caveat, you may need to perform some reviews to see the update take affect. If you've reviewed over the weekend and don't see an update by Monday, Dec 14, please update…
-
Hi folks, Apologies for the radio silence on this issue. I have been talking to the Wayfarer team on the best way to address this. The good news is that we have an internal database update planned for early next year that will re-sync all accepted photos with the games and resolve this. I'll make sure to add a comment here…
-
Hey folks, As @LukeAllStars-PGO and @TheFarix-PGO have said, it's expected that upgrades are applied automatically at random unless you preselect a nomination to be upgraded prior to earning a new one. Having seen a number of complaints about this system, however, we're going to be re-examining how upgrades are managed for…
-
Hi folks, While @LukeAllStars-PGO is correct that this is usually the case, we looked into this issue and confirmed that there IS a syncing issue between what is currently shown and synced with individual games and your agreement records. DO NOT WORRY: your information is not lost, it is still accurately tracked on the…

Thanks for flagging, we'll remove the unnecessary German sentence and revisit the others.
-
Whoops! Updated, thanks for letting me know :)
-
Hey there, This is an interesting suggestion, are you talking about possibly using some sort of photo AI or link scraping system that would be able to detect whether a potential nomination is a fake based on what was submitted? Or improve the ease with which you can report possible fakes as abuse during the reviewing…
-
Hey there, Sorry to see that you're having trouble. Can you provide some more information: what phone model and OS you're using? Also some information about your phone (specifically memory capacity as @TheFarix-PGO mentioned) would be helpful. Finally, if you could share a screen recording of the behavior, this would be…
-
Thanks for flagging! I'll share this with the Wayfarer team to rectify.
-
This is an interesting suggestion, thanks for adding it @AndysaurusRex-ING. Thinking through this, I can see it being a benefit for those reviewers who have demonstrated consistent, high quality review sessions. This would need to be tied to some sort of back-end nomination quality grade/score/rating/etc. But herein lies…
-
This has already been clarified by the OP but just to be 100% certain, I went and confirmed that the form is still active and working. Thanks for flagging!
-
Hey there, Sorry to hear that you had this experience. Can you confirm that PopTartARama is the account that you used to review Wayspots and that you did indeed review nominations in Poland? Thanks!@PopTartARama-PGO
-
Thanks for your concern @Agent86494r8-ING, I would encourage you to review the rejection criteria, which specifically states the following and covers your concerns: Ineligible location, place, or object Location is unsafe, without pedestrian access Location is a private residential property (even if historical), farmland,…
-
Hi folks, This question is addressed in the AMA response for this month!
-
Hi there, The location of the pin should accurately reflect the Wayspot's location in the real-world, regardless of whether it has converted into the desired in-app location or not. As @TheFarix-PGO said, location changes should only be submitted to make the marker more accurate or if the marker were to be closer to a…
-
Hi folks, Confirming that @TheFarix-PGO is correct in that your Hometown location isn't eligible to be changed as it is theoretically the place that you know the best, be it where you've lived longest, where you grew up, etc. As you can update your Bonus location once per year, this is how you could change your settings to…
-
Correct @TheFarix-PGO and @Jtronmoore-PGO! The whole guideline is whether the overall quality of the photo is affected by the angle, rotation, etc. Both of the examples provided are acceptable!
-
Hi folks, This criteria clarification is, as many people have pointed out, in reference to photos that are uploaded with an orientation that doesn't match the photo. So for example, a photo taken in landscape uploaded with portrait orientation. This can also apply to photos that are tilted or askew. Very important that you…
-
Hi there, Thanks for surfacing this and apologies for replying in English. I looked into this issue and there doesn't appear to be a technical issue impacting your progress towards the medal. I've flagged this with the Wayfarer team and we're looking further to make sure nothing else is going on. I'll provide an update…
-
Hi there, Thanks for reporting this. A nomination pending in voting for 7 days isn't necessarily a long time. The amount of time it takes for your nomination to receive sufficient votes to receive a decision can vary depending on how many available reviewers are in your area and how many other nominations are also in…
-
Hey there, Sorry to see that you're experiencing this issue. Can you confirm which specific nomination you're referring to? We've confirmed that there are no technical issues with upgrades currently, but it's possible that one of your nominations received an internal flag, which is why you're not able to see it in your…
-
Looks like this was also filed as a bug report, I'll be addressing it there:
-
Hi @ULtraGreG24-PGO, thanks for flagging. I've confirmed with the Wayfarer team that they're aware of this issue and are working on a fix. In the meantime, the same content is available in the Help Center: https://niantic.helpshift.com/a/wayfarer/?l=fr&s=wayspot-eligibility Thanks again!
-
Hey folks, This is not a challenge that we're not ignorant of. Not only was the issue around "dry zones" for voting called out in both the roadmap post and past AMAs as something that we are working on addressing but we also have leveraged some of the lessons from the recent Poland Wayfarer Challenge to better understand…
