Hello, I keep getting this error messages On the apple app every time I try to upload a observation, when I go to delete what I was trying to upload the observation is still showing up and I have to go in and delete it a second time before it clears out I’ve unloaded the app and reloaded it and …

I think this has to do with the fix we’ve attempted that makes it impossible to upload or edit an observation with an observed-on date that is after it’s upload date, and like @jonathan142 says it would be good to change your account’s time zone (which you can do in Account Settings on the website) …

Playing with the observation just now Something odd is happening If I change the date of the observation It wants to upload with no 422 error code That’s crazy

I have experienced a similar issue; googled the error message and found a conversation about an api issue where the dev was getting a confirmation that the observation was created but received the error when the photo file was sent to be added. The discussion between the dev and the iNat support per…

i experienced this too, and emailed Alex Shephard, but i didn’t really understand what was going on so sadly i didn’t give a very good bug report. What i did determine was that the app apparently somehow was erroneously telling the website that the observation was taken in the future, so it was thro…

A buddy of mine said the same-thing he calls it (head space and timing) in fact it’s been bad going from Even to odd number days the most Such as 30h to the 1st The last time was 20th to the 21st And so on it sounds crazy But I have had no issues uploading the observations via the full site …

I hadn’t noticed any patterns as to when it would versus wouldn’t trigger. My only suggestion is making sure you…

my time zone was set to Quito, but that’s the same as eastern standard time. I went ahead and changed it to eastern standard though i doubt it matters.

So it’s definitely a head space and (timing) Issue :grinning: I’ve been in 3 different time zone in the last month I could see that definitely being a issue In November I’m going to be in Costa Rica Then Argentina and a island in the pacific That’s going to be a blast for the timing Issues Lol…

It probably doesn’t help either That my iPhone XR is on a 702 area code We haven’t lived there for 5 years But my better half doesn’t want to change numbers because all of our family and friends live on the west coast and Arizona

[image] ck2az: I’ve been in 3 different time zone in the last month I could see that definitely being a issue One thing I try to do is change my default time zone when I’m on a trip, but I’m only successful at that like 50% of the time. The mobile apps should use your current time zone when y…
