Hello, I have automatic upgrade deactivated and my Profil states I got 3 upgrades available. When I uploaded a new pokestop suggestion yesterday I was not able since then to apply my upgrade like I used to when I used them back earlier with other stops. There I just had to click my suggestion and click on “upgrade” but the button is not available. Also the new suggestion is still in its first state so it should still be upgradable? Any help would be appreciated.
Hey @Kadossa ,
Could you please provide a screen recording of the issue for us to be able to investigate?
Thanks,
Hello @NianticAaron thanks a lot for your quick response. I attached a screenshot displaying my nomination and available upgrades. It’s German though hope you don’t mind. If I can provide further information please let me know. Would have liked to use my upgrade on it but it does not work how I remember it, as said, there is no button anywhere to see therefor.
On my last nomination it seemed that I was unable to Upgrade until after 24 hours.
I assumed this was an update so Upgrades would not be wasted if used before the AI (eMiLy) took a look?
Am I cracking up 
or is that a possibility?

Google translate works for a lot of images as well; it does a decent translation on your images, just on the unlikely chance that Niantic don’t recognise the German phrases for the key narratives
It’s always OK to post onto the forums in whatever language you feel most comfortable using.

Has anybody had the same situation as I had, when uploaded it did not have the “Upgrade” button but after 24 hours it appeared?
I can upgrade my nomination now. 24 hours have passed but I also just received a fresh and new upgrade (the 4th) around the same minute. However it’s working now. Still don’t remember it behaving that way from before where I nearly could instantly hit the upgrade button once it showed up.
It has been common advice to hold off using the update for a good 24 hours so the AI, Machine Learning, eMiLy has had time to check.
If you have used the Upgrade then ML decides to Reject then you have lost the Upgrade without getting any use from it (it only sends it to a wider Reviewer audience).
I just assumed that it is an update they have done but not yet told us about it…

Hey @Kadossa ,
This is working as designed. You should be able to upgrade nominations after 24 hours of submitting them.
Best,

This is a nice update but would have expected this to have been announced?

Thanks for adding this! I have been advising people to wait anyway. This is a great update. Will bookmark this for answer to questions about “why can’t I upgrade my nomination” as they come up. An announcement would be a great idea!
