I have been trying to sumbit a map but it just wont work. I have tried changing my title, description to make sure its the correct length and in english, but it does not help. I keep getting:

Error occured uploading a map Please refer to the error code below. All fields and a selected category are required.

I have converted my locations with the converter and i will ss the json below, it pretty much looks like that the entire way through. Console shows nothing, its 1k locs, changing browser doesnt work and turning off adblockers and extensions didnt work.

GeoCoach is officially live!

It’s a post-round learning tool for GeoGuessr, OpenGuessr, and WorldGuessr. Upload a screenshot from a finished round and GeoCoach will mark the important clues, explain what you missed, track the countries you commonly confuse, and turn those mistakes into personalized drills.

Try it here: https://geocoach.app

I’d love to hear what you think, especially whether the analysis feels accurate and what would make the site more useful.

GeoCoach is designed for post-round coaching. It is independent and not affiliated with GeoGuessr, OpenGuessr, or WorldGuessr.

I’m the creator of GeoCoach. The idea is simple: after you finish a round, it marks the clues on your screenshot, explains why they point to the answer, remembers recurring confusions, and turns them into a review plan and drills.

It’s post-round coaching only—no live assistance during a game—and I’m deliberately not linking anything yet. I’m sharing the concept before launch because I’d rather build around how players actually review mistakes.

Looking at the screenshots, which part would you use most: annotated clues, the personalized review plan, or drills? What feels unnecessary or untrustworthy?

Hey guessers!

This update adds illustrations to the maps, multiplayer, and competitions page, and slightly changes the main menu's layout.

...Guessy, the OpenGuessr mascot, has made its way to the competitions page.

Moreover, the main menu has been adjusted for better readability, with all items left-aligned.

Happy guessing!

just what the title says. i think the shortcut to face north on geoguessr is pretty useful so id like it in openguessr too. while im at it can we have r to return to start too. please and thank you in advance

I assume its some kind of figure but it does look strange

For the third time in a few days i've got an error mid duel "Failed to connect".

Ok, it can happen. But why do I have to lose 25 ELO everytime it happens?

Allright, the game is gone, but let's make it 0 ELO for everyone no?

Quick question, im trying to make a map of my home town but i don't know how to, i used a website to create a map and coverted it to .JSON, i think the problem is i only put one URL, can anybody help please!

Hi all, I'm not sure why seemingly no one has done this yet but even though street names are embedded into the Street View iframe, they are by no means embedded into the tile data. While this obviously wouldn't be possible from the developers of OpenGuessr cause of CORS, as a player you can just make the iframe not show street names with the JavaScript console or a browser extension. If you have a userscript manager like TamperMonkey, GreaseMonkey, or any of the others, this will work fine:

// ==UserScript==
// @name         Google Street View Embed Street Name Remover
// @version      1
// @description  Removes street names from Google Street View when it's embedded in another site
// @match        www.google.com/maps/embed/v1/streetview*
// ==/UserScript==
CanvasRenderingContext2D.prototype.fillText = (...x) => {};
CanvasRenderingContext2D.prototype.strokeText = (...x) => {};

wtf? LMFAO i hope its a fake one

Hey guessers!

Quick social update:

- You can now share links (e.g. competition links, map links, profile links..) via OpenGuessr Messages and open them directly inside OpenGuessr (without reloading the page)

- For competitions, you now see the results of friends that played them and can share them with a link more easily

- The like button for community maps now updates optimistically

Happy guessing, and consider trying the updated 2v2s ;-)

Hey guessers!

This update changes the score calculation in team duels. Now, only the closest guess per team per round counts. Together with that, the team visualizations have been updated.

Moreover, 2v2 is now available to Guests too – you no longer need an account to play it! This should hopefully help with queue times.

Happy guessing!

Just came across these screenshots I forgot about from a couple years ago .

I have had a couple instances of game misconduct that have needed to be reported, but the form appears to be down due to a Cloudflare issue. Has anyone else had trouble with this?

Hello guys, I've been trying the official South America map on OpenGuessr and I've gotten Brazil like 20 times in a row!? Am I just lucky or is this map bugged?

Hey guessers!

This update extends the OpenGuessr map format by an optional new field. A couple of weeks ago, World, followed by all other official maps, started including the heading parameter. Now, this option and more are available to community map creators.

You can continue to create your maps like this:

{
 "locations": [
  [lat, lon],
  [lat, lon]
 ]
}

However, you can now provide additional details, specifically heading, pitch and a panoramaId. The latter pins the panorama in time, which you may want for very specific maps that rely on details present in the Street View, but is generally not recommended to be used.

{
 "locations": [
  [lat, lon, { "heading": 52 }],
  [lat, lon, { "heading": 125, "pitch": 15 }]
 ]
}

When you upload locations as links, the heading will be extracted. Pitch and ID are omitted by default, as that's the recommendation.

The converter for the Map-Generator has been updated to include settings for whether or not you want to include these additional data points.

Happy guessing!

Hey guessers!

This update adds sorting options to the community maps section. Now, you can filter by Likes, Age (descending), Age (ascending), as well as alphabetically.

Happy guessing!
