Hi! This isn’t necessarily a bug, so apologies if it’s flared incorrectly. I accidently set my hometown as the completely wrong place. I know it’s supposed to be permanent, but I wanted to double check and ask if there is any way at all to change it?

Hey @Crowseye , Welcome to the Wayfarer Community Forum. I have reset your Hometown. You should now be able to set it to a location of your choice. Thanks,

Niantic staff can reset it as one time exception. Please wait until staff come and read this post [image] Hometown mistake Bug Reports & Technical Support Hey @snack1905 , Welcome to Wayfarer.
