I simply love it. There are a lot of places, mostly in small towns, that need a bit of care. Frequently skipped just because don’t give a lot of visualizations, the small business needs some more attention. I’m frequently looking for this kind of places.
I think this is for them who come out from their comfort levels always just for mapping . …because in big or metro cities very hard to get new places which is not in the maps.
Yes, @ErmesT , welcome, it’s a fun challenge. Thanks for joining in. Frequently skipped is a good way to say it. What are your tips for finding these places that need a bit of care? Kind regards from Osaka78
Dear @AkmalB , hope all’s well. Welcome, thanks for joining in. Yes, you’re right. Please, the challenge is meant for fun, each of the five firsts is good by themselves. As you say, finding all five for one place in a big city may be very difficult. What do you suggest? Shall we change the challenge? Thanks, AkmalB. Kind regards from Osaka78
Dear @OSAMA , hope all’s well. Welcome, thank you for joining in. Challenge is good for new badges. Looks like they have lots of firsts there too. Maybe Trailblazer is all about the firsts. Thanks, OSAMA, kind regards from Osaka78
PS It was easy to find places needing some love using the Uncover missing info feature. Challenge was very easy and a lot of fun. Took about an hour to complete. Kind regards from Osaka78
Dear @AkmalB , hope all’s well. Thanks for taking on the challenge as is. All our home towns are probably at different stages on Maps. Does this make the challenge tricky for some cities? In Busselton, our beautiful home town, we never met another Local Guide here yet. Lots of places, needing lots of love. Was the 5 Firsts challenge do-able in your location, AkmalB? Thanks and kind regards from Osaka78
Very funny, @AkmalB . Good duplicate hunting. Ok, challenge accepted. Hunt is on again next weekend 28-29 October: 5 Firsts Round 2 Good luck and kind regards from Osaka78
First photos and reviews are so important! I get thrilled when I upload a photo of a business which has no photos yet. Cool challenge, @Osaka78forTRUMP ! That is what I aim to do all the time too
Dear @AkmalB and @JeslynL , hope all’s well. Yes, it’s nice to read both your comments. AkmalB, that’s awesome. We’re looking forward to round 2 as well. JeslynL, thank you for your kind words. Hope your both having a great week. Kindest regards from Osaka78
PS It was easy to find a place with no photos yet using Explore on Maps for iPhone. Contributing a rating, review and photo was simple. Adding video and asking a question was tricky, as they’re not currently featured on Maps for iOS. Captured video on iPhone, uploaded to Google Photos, added to Android Maps on Chromebook later. Asked a question on Android Maps running on BlueStacks for PC. 5 Firsts Round 2 was a lot of fun. Kind regards from Osaka78
