Seit Dienstag, dem 21. Oktober, bis einschließlich heute Morgen sehe ich
Es sieht aus als hätte man uns in der Vergangenheit geparkt.
Das ist nicht das erste Mal @Annaelisa, meist stimmt es Montag früh dann wieder seit jetzt stimmt es auf dem Handy wieder.

Hoffentlich, irgendwas was benötigt wohl so lange Bearbeitungszeit
Ja der Zähler hat sich gerade zurück gemeldet 
Nicht nur das @Annaelisa, vor einigen Minuten ging die Zahl noch mal höher und zeigt jetzt mehr als die Summe aller Fotos heute früh um 7 Uhr 15.

Bei mir machte der Unterschied, der Tage mit Stillstand, fast 600.000 Punkte aus.
Thank you for this post, @MortenCopenhagen .
Yes, me too, I’ve seen that some photo is getting views faster.
My feeling is that Google updated again the way to calculate the amount of views, and this seems to be confirmed also by the weekly trend (I’ve seen it also in screenshots posted by others)
Till last week my weekly average was around 400k, and this week it’s almost doubled (before the previous chance it was around 1.2M per week).
Let’s wait a few weeks to see if this is a real change.
I can’t completely confirm the second chance about grouping photos posted with a week of difference, but for sure I’ve seen it in photos posted in a short time range, e.g. one photo of the place A, then 2 photos of the place B, then another photo of the place A. The 3 photos of the place A were displayed together

Thanks, @ErmesT
I believe the total photo views were just updated.
Prior to the crash last year I was getting ± 1 million views per day. I’m very close to be back.
6.5 million views per 7 days is pretty close to 7 million per 7 days.

I just checked and see that my photos from the last two days, all have views already. Meanwhile there are many from between 3 days ago back to 4 weeks ago which have no views yet.
I haven’t been monitoring my weekly trend, but now you mention it, I can see a sharp upward turn in my graph for the last 7 days.

Jetzt steht der Zähler wieder Still
@Annaelisa und @MortenCopenhagen,
der gestrige Wert auf der mobile App war zu hoch. Heute stimmt es wieder auf dem desktop und auf dem Handy. Der Wert is exakt die Summe, die ich gestern früh ermittelt hatte.

By “calculated,” do you mean you add up all the individual photo views to arrive at your own photo views total?

Exactly, @MortenCopenhagen. I do so every morning and the published total is always at least 6 hours, sometimes several days old.

Very interesting. You have added 7700 photos or so. Don’t tell me that you manually and daily look up and enter all these numbers and punch them into a spreadsheet. It would take days to do. Just downloading all my photos into local storage takes hours and can easily fail. Please describe your method. Are you maybe using Google takeout?
Cheers

No, it is not takeout @MortenCopenhagen.
I scroll My Contributions → Photos By Date to the very end, mean while Gavin’s auto load function of A tool that makes filtering photo/video contributions easier. After reaching the oldest photo, I open the developer tools and copy the underlying HTML to clipboard. A Python script reads the clipboard, extracts the views and a unique ID for each photo, updates my photo database and copies an extract CSV to clipboard. The latter, I paste into a spreadsheet to calculate the daily deltas. The result is this:
These are the totals of the last three days: first line my count, second total published on desktop and third on mobile app. Below that the differences:
The minus 133,959 indicates, the total on the mobile Maps yesterday did show more than I actually counted.

WOW.
Top points for dedication and methodology.

Thank you.
It started with my desire to be able to track what happened to each of my photos (with the link to the place). After Feb 2024, I discovered the methods to make this detailed analysis. The foundation is my photo database, which did exist already more than 10 years.

I think a virtual meetup where you demonstrate this would be very interesting.

I’d be more than happy to do so, @MortenCopenhagen. However, I’m afraid for most, if not all other users, it would be impossible to implement something similar.
I understand and agree with you.
My idea was just to better understand the components in your process with the perspective to maybe use them for similar / other projects.
This would be “nerding” at the highest level
