Yesterday morning, one of my new Wayspots was approved. Since the PokéStop sync in our area usually happens between 8 and 9 p.m. local time every day, it appeared on the Pokémon GO map for me and my brother around 8 p.m., and we could use it normally.
I then sent it to my friend to let him know there was a new one nearby (about 300 meters from his house), but he said he couldn’t see it yet, even though I could. Could it be that it takes up to 48 hours to appear for everyone? It just seems strange that I can already see it.
Hello, sorry for the late reply. My friend wasn’t home last night, so I couldn’t check whether they were there at that time. He has now sent me pictures and confirmed that they are there. So I assume that for some players they appeared after 24 hours, and for others only after 48 hours. Thank you all very much for your help
