Report Missing PokéStop / Wayspot Removal Error - Nhà văn hoá Tương Mai

Wayspot Appeals
1

Dear Niantic Support Team,

I am writing to report a valid Wayspot / PokéStop that has suddenly disappeared from the game map around August 12, 2026, without any clear reason.

Name of the PokéStop: Nhà văn hoá Tương Mai

Location / Coordinates: 20.992536, 105.845860

Issue Description: This PokéStop was previously active and served as a key community gathering place for local players. On August 12, 2026, it abruptly vanished from Pokémon GO.

This location fully complies with all Niantic Wayfarer eligibility guidelines:

1. It is a official Community Center (Nhà văn hoá) which promotes social gathering and community exploration.

2. It is located on safe public property with 24/7 pedestrian access.

3. It does NOT violate any guidelines regarding Private Single-Family Residential Property (PRP) or K-12 schools/daycare centers.

We suspect this removal might be due to an erroneous automated flag, an incorrect report, or a map synchronization issue. Could you please re-evaluate this location and restore the PokéStop to the game map?

Thank you for your assistance.

Best regards,
jerrybn447

Welcome to the forum :slight_smile:

This wayspot shows as having been approved on 9th August 2026, meaning it was active for three days. I find it difficult to believe it could have been used as a key community gathering place for Pokemon Go players when there are other wayspots nearby which have existed for years.

To get it reinstated, you will probably need to provide evidence that it exists here.

Thanks for the appeal, @jerrybn447! We have taken another look but stand by our decision to retire this Wayspot.
