For about a month or two, newer photos that I’ve taken no longer showing up in the contribution page.
I was not able to contribute more photos. All photos that I would like to upload were taken recently with my daily phone with Google Account.
Is there an solution?
Thank you,

Hi @stonez56 ,
Welcome to Local Guides Connect!
I would like to suggest you to read the following tips for uploading images on Connect.
Here are also some advises for you to manage your photos and guidelines to upload. Photos that do not adhere to Maps User Contributed Content Policy will be made private and are only visible to you.
I suggest you go through the following resources to get familiar with our program: Why be a Local Guide?, What are the Connect topics? and Tips: Using Local Guides Connect.
Please follow the tips and try to upload them again. If the issue still persists, please attach screenshots to show up your problem.
Hey @stonez56 ,
I just noticed that you have managed to upload new photos on Google Maps. The latest photos that you have added to Google Maps are from January 2019.
Please also note that some of your contributions may be marked private if they do not adhere to our policies (reviews, photos and videos, community). Photos that are low-quality or duplicate in nature may be removed by our internal filters.
Hey @stonez56 I had this sort of matter about a year ago. I noticed that photos I had added had been deleted after a while. I checked back on everything I did afterwards. I recalled deleting some photos from my Google photos album in the bid to recover space.
Now, I realized photos I took on my phone, and afterwards uploaded on maps, are stored on google photos automatically. I also noticed that when I deleted the photos from google photos, they went off on maps. Luckily, they were in the recycle bin so I restored those photos and voila, they were back on google maps. Strange but it happened.
So, please check also if you have deleted photos from your Google Photos app. If so, try and get them restored from the recycle bin and you should be fine. Hope this helps you or anyone else.

No, I’m still have issues seeing new photos in the Google Map. The photos you mentioned were uploaded through POI rating section, not photo gallery. I still can’t see other new photos. All in all, roughly two months of recent photos were not there for me to upload.
I prefer to upload photos through photo gallery.
Thanks for looking into this.

Thanks, but I haven’t delete any photos from my Google account.
Actually, I took way more photos in the phone, but non of them show up there for me to upload.
Thanks,
