Hi @surupa07
I took a look at your account and saw something is not adding up.
When sorting your photos by views you have 17K views.
While there are only 2600 views when they are sorted by date.
This is a bug. My advice would be just to wait a week or two and I think this will self-correct. If not, please give me another shout-out in this thread. Don’t forget to tag me.
Cheers

If you think reaching a certain level will ensure you a physical reward you will be disappointed. Are you asking about a badge?

Thank you for your time to look on view count issue.
Regarding physical reward I just mean - local guide pin badge sent to home address after reaching certain level. Most of fellow contributors and friends already received.
Hence curious is there any other criteria or level to reach . Thank you

Hi @surupa07 as @MortenCopenhagen has asked you to wait for a week or 2, it seems now resolved. I can see your photos views are 31,476 on 94 photos on sorting by date and by views, both are the same. So that bug might have compiled.

Hi again @surupa07
Great that @Rohan10 noticed that your views are back to normal. Thanks.
There is no pattern, and there’s no fairness in who gets rewards. It is just a marketing gimmick. So there are no levels or thresholds to aim for to achieve a physical pin. Sorry.
You can learn more about perks by reading: Questions about Local Guides rewards. Also, Why be a local guide? is worth a read.
And finally, make sure Rewards is selected in your email settings found here. And update the location to show your current location.
Cheers
