Re: How to change my profile picture in Local Guides

Hi @aaryesdee:

You photo here on Connect and Local Guides is linked to the Google account that you used to sign up for Local Guides.

You can change the photo by going to account.google.com and logging in with the account and then clicking on your current photo that is in the middle of the page at the top.

Please post publicly so others can benefit as well. I do not have private messages. Thanks!

Hi. Thanks for the prompt response and as suggested, changed my picture. But the earlier one appear in Local Guide account. Let's wait for some time to changes as it might be.

Thanks & Regards

Hi @aaryesdee:

It takes some time for all of Google's backend to synchronize. Give it 24 to 48 hours at the very least. If it has been over a week, then let us know.

Hi @aaryesdee:

Can you tell me which profile photo you see on this page for you? 

https://maps.google.com/localguides/home/settings

Is it the old one or the new one?

Hi @aaryesdee,

 

As @Shirley mentioned, it takes some time for things to synchronise across the platforms and applications.

 

Please make sure that your Google Maps app is up-to-date. Also, try logging out from your account on Google Maps and logging in again.

 

@Shirley's reply has been marked as a solution because she's provided the correct answer to your question, and you did manage to change your profile photo by following her advice.

 

Please allow some time for things to sync and let me know if you're still experiencing issues after updating your app and logging out and in again. Thank you!
