Description of problem (please provide a set of steps we can use to replicate the issue, and make as many as you need.):
My most recent observations won’t show up on my map as a pin-point, I usually make obscured observation, but that still shows a circle on the map, this time it won’t show it. It still shows that I’ve done those observations, but it won’t show them on the map.

Step 1:

Step 2:

Step 3:


normally it’s supposed to show up like this

Their accuracy is too low, it shows me 27 km for last observations, I don’t remember at which point exactly, but observations with too wide accuracy circles are not shown as points on map, so try getting it smaller.
