Introduction[edit]
There are different ways to go when you want to suggest a new zone: Directly in the app, via the forum, or in a layer in Google Maps.
Directly in the app[edit]
You can directly in the app suggest seven zones each round.
- Press the menu button
at the bottom right then the light bulb 
. - Draw the shape of the zone by clicking on the map (if it is wrong, press 'clear').
- Press Suggest and then give the zone an appropriate name.
Via the forum[edit]
Both Android and iPhone users can use the forum to suggest zones, for example to provide more in-depth suggestions with pictures.
In a layer in Google Maps[edit]
You can also add suggestions for new zones in a layer in Google Maps. Some regions have opened up so that turfers in that region can submit proposals directly there, and then propose to argue for their suggestions in the forum. Information on how to do this can be found in the thread "Create a map with your zone proposals" on the forum (link below).
One region that has opened up that possibility is Uppsala (link below). A clear advantage of this is that then you also see existing zones, and where others have submitted their suggestions.

General tips on zone proposals[edit]
In order for there to be a greater chance that your zone will become a reality, the area of the zone should be approximately 25x25 meters. Also keep in mind that there must be at least 200 meters between the zones.
For each proposed and completed zone by zone makers, you will receive a message stating that the zone has been approved, ie that it has become real in the app. Note that such a message is sent even when another zone is completed in the immediate vicinity of your zone suggestion.
Getting their zones approved does not happen every day. It can take days, but it can also take years or never happen. It all depends on activity in the area and whether your region's zone makers like the suggestion.
