Double uploads of photos 🚵🚵

[Anonymous]

This is common issue, whenever I upload more than 50 photos to Maps there are sometimes doubled:

 

This is the most recent example

What could be the cause of this?  

Maybe this happenes when internet breaks or something like that, I don't see other reason...

Does somebody have a clue ?

Hello @Anonymous,

This may occasionally be a product of your ISP and the strength of the internet connection at the time you are doing your upload.

Hi @BruceDM, thanks for answering. So as I assumed it's a matter of occasionally bad internet connection when uploading...

I had thought they fixed this, because it hasn't happened to me for a while. But I did notice when it was happening to me a lot that it happened when I had slow internet. Slow internet causing duplicates seems like an issue that Google programmers should be able to fix.

@BruceDM , can you report this as a bug?

This does seem rather oddly that happens so often @JosephDewey, but it's probably not from crutial point that needs resolving...

hi @Anonymous
Exactly, when you have a bad Internet, this problem happens

Thanks @Rezgar, it does make sense...

How could  the strength of the internet cause duplicate  pictures?

What do you mean by product of ISP. Doesn't make sense. Happens on occasion to me as well. Can happen when just posting a few photos.  I don't see the duplicates attached to the review, but see them when I choose to look at "photos'. I don't see that I get points for the duplicates. Think it's more like a bug in the reviews software.

@Koby This is a great point.

I can't think of how, either. I can think of how bad internet might result in 0 pictures, but I can't think of how bad internet ends up resulting in 2 pictures. And for me, it's always been two pictures. Why not 3 or 4 when the internet is especially bad? Very good point.
