Tips

  • Share context that helps other visitors make better decisions.
  • Avoid posting private travel details or information about other people.
  • Use reports when content is unsafe, spammy, misattributed, or misleading.

Troubleshooting

  • If social actions are unavailable, check sign-in state and whether the feature is enabled for your account.
  • If profile content is not visible to others, review privacy settings and blocked-user controls.
  • If content should be corrected, use report or feedback with the place, post, or collection entry attached.

Privacy, accuracy, or availability notes

  • Profile, friend, follow, and community features may expose collection activity or travel context.
  • Use privacy and blocking controls before sharing personal information or public goshuincho links.
  • Report content that exposes private information, misidentifies a place, or conflicts with official guidance.
