Photo copying

I have a review from a fave local bar and I posted a pic with it, seemed fine until last week…

It looks like it’s copied itself almost 100x and each one has different views and likes. I am new to this so any help on why this happened and what I should do would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance!

Hi @drummer4207

This is a glitch reported recently by a few Local Guides.

First of all make sure to have the last version of the App installed, then logout from the App, and clear cookies and cache on your device.

Store your photo in Google Photos, or in a different folder in your device, and delete it from the actual position.

The reason of the multiplication can be a missing feedback of the “uploaded status” of your photo (maybe caused by a low connection, so the App is trying to upload the photo again and again.

After that, go to your profile on Google Maps App (or on Desktop) and delete the duplicated one by one. If you don’t know how to delete a photo, please read Add, remove, or share photos and videos
