Hi @user_not_found

I looked at your profile, and I can confirm that all of your 1192 photos and 559 videos are hidden. Considering that 91 of your 95 reviews are still public this is unusual. Since I’m unable to see your photos and you have clarified that your profile is not set to restricted, I can not help you identify what guideline violations might have caused your issue.

Please see https://www.localguidesconnect.com/t5/General-Discussion/Common-Photo-Violations/td-p/2901636

and consider with an open mind if the examples mentioned there could be causing the problem.

Since I can see your reviews, I can share a few tips, that potentially could have an effect on your profile.

Starting all your reviews by stating the date of your visit is not really necessary since each review is stamped automatically with the date you wrote the review. Repetitive text across reviews has caused problems for others.

You posted the exact same review to both Merlion Park and Merlion. This is a clear violation of the guidelines.

The review: “Date of visit: 12 May 2023. A conveniently located coffeeshop should you need to fuel up along the way.” Could be created by someone just looking at Google Maps. Explaining the location on Google Maps is not necessary since Google Maps has the location pinned more precisely. And you forgot to explain what you bought and how you liked it.

Please check out one of my latest posts called 4 Tips on writing better reviews to quickly check if your reviews are following the guidelines.

After fixing your reviews and removing photos that could be in violation of the guidelines, please use the form called Account investigation for contributions not visible on Google Maps. Keep in mind, it takes several weeks for the check to be done, and you will not be notified about the result, so I suggest you check the status of your reviews once a week or so.

Best of luck
Morten

Have you tried using a laptop to upload the photos?
