As per our new points system, the following are the points awarded for the Maps Contribution
The desktop version is showing the correct points,
5,166+53+29,320+6,620+1,245+2,820+452 = 45,676
But in the app, it is showing the number of contributions not the points. In app it's showing the results according to our old points system.
863+53+5839+6,623+265+190+452 = 14,285
Actual points calculations:-
Reviews 863 * 5 = 5,178
Ratings 53 * 1 = 53
Photos 5,839 * 5 = 29,195
Answers 6,623 * 1 = 6,623
Edits 265 * 5 = 1,325
Places added 190 * 5 = 2,850
Facts Checked 452 * 1 = 452
-----------------------------------------------
Total Points = 45,676
-----------------------------------------------
So, I request the concerned app officials to update the points.

SolutionHi @FazeelUsmani,
By design, the LG Homepage and the Contribution Details page in Mobile Maps are showing the number of Contributions in each category. While in Desktop Maps, our Contribution Details page are showing POINTS we earned in each category.
That's why you are seeing two sets of number among LG HomePage/Mobile Maps vs Desktop Maps.
As long as the total points are in sync, then there is nothing to worry about.

No, in my case both on App and Desktop are now showing same and correct points. Earlier both were different.

I have a same problem.
The number of contributions on the LG and GMM accounts are not synchronized.

Hi @nvthanh,
Can you be more specific? The best way to tell is to post three different screen captures:
1. Desktop Maps Contributions Details page
2. Mobile Maps Contributions Details page
3. LocalGuides Homepage Contributions Details page

Hello @YK1001,
Here are my contributions of google maps:
It seems the total points is not correct. For ex. the number of edits : 16030, then the points are 16030 x 5 = 80150... while it is only 22161.
Thanks for your response,

it looks like your screenshot is from a laptop. If i understand it right, laptop/desktop shows who many points you have in total each catagori and in the app it shows number of edits. I guess if you take that number from the app and x5. You will get the number you see on your laptop 🙂

@DanT-DK, you're right!!!
The snapshot is of Desktop version, so it displays the points instead the total numbers of each.
In fact, the LG points does not take in to account the previous edits of google mapmaker when I contributed as a Regional Lead with large amount of edits.

There used to be some synchronisation issues recently and I'm not sure whether they are completely solved or not. So far, they all got solved by patiance 😉 Just few days and it should be ok. If you are very eager to see the points, you may try to restart the phone and clear the caches or reinstall the app. Theoreticly it could help, however for most of the guys that reported the issue previously, it was fine within 48 hours...
