incorrect location finding - will allow my check in but no badges.

I attempted to check in a beer today (anderson valley cerveza crema) and tagged my location, which is where I am currently, columbus, oh. The location checker thing thought I was 30 miles away in a suburb. As anderson valley currently grants a badge, it's frustrating to see that happen when I search out my actual location.

maybe untapped should give people checking in the benefit of the doubt if it's somewhat close to the location it thinks they are in and has been checked in multiple times before?

   Blake,

   What did the "distance" say below the location? Anderson Valley badge doesn't require a location - so could always check-in again w/o location to get the badge.

   What is your username? What this an issue with your location not being pulled correctly or did you search for something that was too far away?

   Thanks,
   Greg

   The app said I was 30 mi away from the location I was sitting in, a little
   while later I tried to check in again and it found me right where I was. It
   seemed to be a one time issue so I can't make it happen again unfortunately.

   If those things happen - always hit the refresh button to recycle your location.Sometimes they are cached so it causes issues.

   Thanks for your support!
