Photos not uploading on google maps

@chinyama

En español

Tu puedes saber que fotos están duplicadas en tu cuenta de google maps. Ve a tus contribuciones- fotos en tu cuenta de maps y apareceran ahi con el nombre del lugar donde publicaste las fotos y las verás repetidas. Si publicaste las fotos en lugares con distinto nombre o nombres similares, entonces sera más difícil. Sólo hay que buscar. Por mi experiencia puedo ver más de mis fotos en la computadora que en el celular. Aún así no puedes ver la totalidad de tus fotos en tu cuenta. Me han comunicado que se llegan a ver hasta mil quinientas fotos. Yo nunca he podido ver tantas fotos mías para revisarlas. Me ha sucedido que hay fotos en mi cuenta que aún no aparece el nombre del lugar donde las subi, en ese caso espero unos días hasta que aparezca el nombre, si no aparecen yo las elimino porque veo que ya están publicadas todas juntas en un lugar con nombre y tienen visitas. Si yo ya las envie a publicar desde Google fotos que es el lugar más seguro, cuando escribo las review y solicitan en forma automática fotos, No las publiques, pues ya las publicaste, con los días las veras debajo de tus review en forma automática. Es otra forma de evitar duplicados Lo que yo te comento es mi experiencia, yo no he encontrado nada escrito al respecto. Inténtalo tu hasta donde llegues a ver la mayor cantidad de fotos posibles. Mucha suerte.

@LuaPL thank you so much for such valuable tips. They are very useful as trying to guard against duplicate photos is very difficult. As you said we always try our best to look out for them and your experience is first hand information which is tried and tested which means if it worked for you it will work for me. I have already tried a number of your suggestions and they really worked. Thank you once again for taking the time to help out. Highly appreciated.

@salonisethia tThank once again for bringing the topic subject up. I also raised a similar problem though different in another post and there were some great and useful answers from fellow community members. If you can check out that post answers very useful as someone mentioned something I did not know that sometimes we can not see all of our photos but they would have uploaded and if you you reload them like what I did latter you will see them being duplicates. Which again becomes another problem as you hope you will see them first so as to delete them. So advisable not to reload those pictures if you are so sure you uploaded them.

Was this issue ever solved? My uploaded photos do not appear even though I see the confirmation messages. I’ve tried on both mobile and two different web browsers on desktop and tested on several different locations. Still nothing. Is this something unique to my profile or a global issue? Appreciate the help.

Hi @user_not_found ,

Thanks for reaching out.

Please note that sometimes it may take some time your photos to be visible on Google Maps. Further more, since you have allowed in Connect settings your profile to be viewed, I noticed that there are recent photos uploaded.

Could you please confirm whether these are the photos you mentioned in your post?

Since your post was not relevant to the thread you posted it in, I merged it to a relevant one where you may benefit from the discussion on this topic.

Thanks

Hi @user_not_found ,

Sorry for the late reply.

Please keep in mind that it may take some time the data to get synchronized.

Do your newly added places appear on Google Maps now?

“Need Help with Photo Upload Error on Google Maps”

Hey Local Guides community,

I’ve been encountering a frustrating issue with uploading photos on Google Maps, and I’m hoping someone here might have some insight or solutions. Every time I try to upload a photo, I keep getting an error message that’s preventing me from sharing images of my favorite spots with the community.

The error message typically says something like “Photo upload failed. Or Looking Like In screenshot or many other like Please try again later.” I’ve tried multiple times, on internet connections, but the problem persists. It’s really disappointing because I love contributing to Google Maps and helping others discover great places, but this issue is holding me back.

Check out this review on Google Maps which is showing same

Has anyone else experienced this problem? If so, were you able to find a solution? Any advice or troubleshooting tips would be greatly appreciated. Let’s work together to solve this issue and continue making Google Maps a valuable resource for everyone.

Thanks in advance for your help!

Hey, guys. I couldn’t upload pictures from the last two places I reviewed.

The text review uploaded correctly, but when I go to see it, there are no pictures in my review.

I tried to upload the pictures again, and I get an error message that says “We can’t publish your review/opinion. Try again later”.

Is this an app problem? Is it because I’ve been reviewing a lot of places this year?
