Approved Wayspot not appearing in Pokémon GO

Hello everyone,

I would like to ask for your advice regarding a Wayspot nomination that was successfully approved in Wayfarer a few days ago.

Although the status shows as accepted, the waypoints still have not
appeared in Pokémon GO. Could anyone help me understand why this might be happening or what could be the reason for the delay in syncing?

Thank you very much for your help!

Welcome to the fourm.

There are secondary inclusion rules in order for an accepted wayspot to be used as a pokestop.

I can try to find the location from your screenshots, but it would help if you would post the title and gps coordinates.

For example, the white circled wayspots here are not eligible to become pokestops or gyms because these L17 S2 cells already have either a pokestop (blue) or gym (red).

(The pin is at the words I searched on to find this place from your first screenshot.)

Oh, I see. Is there something I can do so the pokestops will be there?
Thanks for the explanation. :slight_smile:

Attempting to move the location of a pin for the sole purpose of putting it into an empty cell so it will show up in game is abuse.

IF the wayspots did not land at the actual location of the points of interest subitted, you can request a location correction, but only for purposes of correcting the pin to the real world. If that is the case, you can use help chat to make the request.

It looks like all of your pins are spot on to me.

I did not mention power spot potential. The purple circle around this one indicates that it is far enough away from any pokestop or gym to potentially be used as a power spot. They seem to update the power spot pool of wayspots around the 4 of each month. But other than that, which ones they use appears to be random.
