Checking the fact was changed in June 2021, @user_not_found , (An update on “Check the facts” and “Discover missing info” ) and is now triggered only for facts to check near the position where you are. It means that we probably have less fact to check, but more accuracy. Obviously, as the request for checking fact is active for places near you, my tips are:
Keep your geo-location active in your device
Check the contribute tab on your app when you are in a location different from your usual one, to see if there are facts to check in the area.
Regarding gift, I would like to remind you that we are not contributing for gift, but we may receive them because we contribute with great and original contents. Make sure to check your settings, to be sure of being notified for possible perks. For more details please read: Question about a Local Guides reward email? Read this first
