Trust model

How we keep community reports useful when it matters most.

• Phone or email verification required to post

  We verify everyone who submits or confirms a report — once, the first time you use the platform. Read-only access never asks.

• Reports are timestamped

  Every report shows how long ago it was posted. The age is always visible on the card and on the pin.

• Photos and (soon) videos increase confidence weight

  Reports with media are weighted higher and pinned with a camera icon on the map.

• Reports auto-expire after 2 hours without confirmation

  After two hours with no confirmation, a report drops to grey and is labelled stale until someone updates it.

• Community can confirm or dispute any report

  Tap Still accurate, This is wrong, or Update this report. Disputes outweighing confirmations downgrade the confidence.

• Admin moderation can hide or remove reports

  Flagged content goes to a moderation queue. Repeat abuse leads to suspension.

• No points, no ranks, no leaderboards

  Accuracy matters, not activity. We don't gamify reporting.
