Hello local guides!
When I add a review to Google Maps, I always add one or two photos with my review to provide context. And then add my other photos in the photos section.
Today, I tried to add a photo to a review but the button to post it goes to the bottom of the page and impossible it’s to click on the Post button.
I was able to send my review without any issues but without any photos.
Has anyone else experienced this problem?
I didn’t see it here @christophesubilia
But I face the same problem as you: posting photos in my review or in the photos tab. Mainly because even though you post a good photo on a review, you don’t see the food name option available.
Hello Roger, and thank you for your feedback. I completely agree with you, and I feel that photos in reviews are rarely among the first photos of a place.
I always include one or two photos with my review to give it meaning, but now that’s no longer possible 
Please try restarting your device. If it persists you need to share a screenshot and specify your platform, operating system version and Maps app version.
Thank you @MortenCopenhagen ! I’ve restarted but the issue is always here.
Screen before choose a picture
Screen after uploaded a picture without possibility to Post
Google maps version
Android version
I have a Pixel 7 Pro.
But the strangest thing is that I have a backup phone, a Samsung A16, and I don’t have this problem.
I don’t see the greyed out Post button in your screenshot.
Thanks for the detail about your Samsung phone.
Please share the Maps link to the place where you are trying to add the review.
I think we will need to escalate this issue.
Does it help to add some review text?
Thank you @MortenCopenhagen
If you look closely at the second screenshot compared to the first, the Post button becomes clearer and slides under the Android menu of the phone.
I tried this in five different places and encountered the same issue each time.
Adding text does not change anything. If I add text but do not upload a photo, I can publish. However, as soon as I add a photo (in the Review), I encounter the issue described above.
Thanks.
So is the problem that you can not “get to the Post-button” or that it is grey or both?
@DeniGu would you have time to take a look at this before the weekend?
@christophesubilia Where are you located - just approximately.
Did you try rotating your phone to see if you then will ge able to scroll down?
It’s both: grayed out and unable to post.
I’m on a day off in France near Paray-le-Monial.
I have my Samsung A16 and no issue on the same area
Do a rotating was a good idea @MortenCopenhagen ! I can push Post Button even with a picture on a Review, thank you.
I hope it can be résolve in vertical mode
Hello @christophesubilia ,
Yes, I’ve come across a few others facing a similar issue recently — especially when trying to add photos directly while writing a review. It seems like a glitch in the layout where the “Post” button gets pushed off-screen or becomes unresponsive.
A few possible workarounds you could try:
Thank you so much @NandKK your point 1 is the best alternative I guess
I am glad that you liked the idea @christophesubilia
Much Thankful.
