Pokestop showing different locations in Wayfarer and Go app. Not showing up

General Discussion
1

I submitted a Pokestop and it was approved on 9/23/25. Right before submitting my thumb hit my phone screen, placing it in another s2 cell. The Pokestop name is Kenneth Circle Courtyard.

I contacted support through the chat both while it was in voting and after the Pokestop was approved.

Now I see it’s in 2 different spots on the app vs here on the Wayfarer site.

First one is Wayfarer, second is the Pokemap, I would have liked to have it moved onto the path (circled in red).
Coordinates: 42.04750° N, 88.24594° W

I think the current spot on the app’s map would work. It’s been 2 days and I’m wondering if it’s not showing up because of where it is on the Wayfarer site map? And should I try to have it moved again via chat?

Wayfarer won’t update if the location was corrected/moved by reviewers during review.

Pokémon GO will show its current live location. If it is misplaced and needs moving, you can request this via Help on Wayfarer and the chat bubble there.

If it is in the correct location and you’re moving just for cells, this can be considered abuse.

I think moving it would be considered accurate, but the current Pokemap version would be fine with me. Was mostly worried that the Wayfarer map was where it would be placed as it’s both inaccurate and in conflict with the s2 cell.

Can movements made from chat take more than 48 hours? I’m just anxious because it was approved a week ago.
