Are secure restricted goverment access POI acceptable or abuse?
Are secure restricted goverment access POI acceptable or abuse? If they meet the criteria for abuse, are old restricted access POIs grandfathered in or should they be reported as abuse? For instance, a POI only accessible to government employees and only those with special specific credentials have essentially brought game… -
Re: Appeal rejected invalid Wayspots in gated community (Shanghai, China)
There is no requirement that Wayspots be accessible to all players or at all times. So long as some members of the public can access the Wayspot legally, then it is valid. Residence of a gated community are part of the public and can access the Wayspots. From the November 2020 AMA: How does “publicly accessible” apply to… -
Re: Condominios residenciales
Tricky one there! Publicly accessible amenities inside Apartment complexes could still be eligible as long as they meet all of the acceptance criteria as mentioned in our November AMA.

Re: Do people really equate temporary/seasonal display as something stolen or removed easily?

Re: VA Medical Center + 👍👎
It's not faulty logic. I can't find a source right now because the search function on this forum is pretty terrible, but Niantic has previously stated that things in hospitals that don't interfere with emergency departments can be nominated and seen as eligible.

Historic Lighthouse. Bad Appeal Decision
Hello, I am looking to share my feedback to Niantic in the hopes this appeal result can be overturned, as recommended in the November 2023 AMA. The nomination in question is the historic Stratford Shoal Lighthouse. It is located on a small island in the middle of the Long Island Sound. Built in 1877, it remains an… -
Re: How is this pier a natural feature?
Hello! When I review piers and docks, location and/or ownership is a big consideration. Is it at a city, state, or national park or public beach? I almost always approve these. At a private club or business? Maybe. But the submitter has to convince me that it would be a great place to exercise, explore, or be social for a…
