When I am uploading lots of photos on the map, only a few photos are showing, why is this happening?

Hi @Pravind_Yadav and welcome to Connect!

There might be various reasons why your pictures were not made public. It could be that your pictures were flagged, because of one of these reasons:

• Photos of groups or selfies
• Duplicated photos 
• Photos not related to the place
• Spam

I suggest you check our Community Policy, for better clarification on this matter.

Dear All,

In case of some Reviews made by me, I can post photos and they get uploaded and are visible but in case of some other Reviews I have made The photos don't get uploaded after I Post the Photos.

Any way to overcome above problem.

Uploaded photos have to be approved

@RodneyJS who do the uploaded photos need to be approved by? If they don't go through the initial stage where the Google Maps AI approves the photo and allows the photo to instantly be viewable by the listing, where does it go from there?

@KlaudiyaG, you've mentioned that uploaded photos can take some time to process information. But if the photos are processed and decided not to allow the photo to publicly appear on the listing, how can they be appealed or at least reviewed? I ensure that the photos are related to the place, not a duplicate of any existing photo and definitely not spam.
