Since the carrot market itself is an app for direct transactions in the neighborhood, it is necessary to verify the neighborhood in order to confirm that it is a neighborhood. Not only do you only have to do it once, the local certification also has an expiration period. It takes about a month, but it expires after the period expires, so you need to re-authenticate the town. If it expires, you can’t send chats to other sellers and you can’t create new posts. However, even if the neighborhood authentication has expired, chatting is possible if an existing chat room that has already been created or a person who wants to purchase comes to chat first.

Neighborhood authentication method 좋은뉴스
If you run the app and the GPS function of your phone is turned on, you can automatically verify the neighborhood. Therefore, only if you have a mobile phone in that town, you can verify the town.
As it is the process of verifying that you are a local, you need to verify your neighborhood in the app for the first time.
You can do this in ‘My Carrot’ at the bottom of the Carrot Market app and in the ‘Verify Neighborhood’ menu. Click the icon at the bottom right of the map to get the location, and then touch Done.
▲ Run GPS, touch My Carrot at the bottom of the app screen, and select Local Authenticate on the My Carrot screen.
▲ I’ve been authenticated once in another town before, but the neighborhood authentication is set to that town, so I need to change the neighborhood authentication. So, at the bottom of the map, tap ‘Change neighborhood to your current location’.
▲Then the current location is set to my neighborhood, and you can complete the neighborhood authentication under the map.
▲ After confirming the success of the neighborhood authentication, you can now check the posts and make a transaction in the neighborhood.
If authentication is not
As mentioned above, you must have your phone in your neighborhood and have GPS turned on. It means you have to be in that town.
Also, there are cases where the location information of the mobile phone has not been approved. In the phone settings > Privacy and Safety > App Permissions > Location, find the Carrot Market app and allow the location information.
In other cases, it is necessary to check the location recognition method in the GPS settings. If you look at the GPS settings in the mobile phone app, there is a [Location Recognition Method] menu. Check if it is set to ‘High Accuracy’, and if not, select High Accuracy. (High accuracy: use GPS, wife, mobile network to determine my location)
If you cannot find the location even if you turn on the GPS, you can go out of the building or try authentication again from the window. If that doesn’t work, try running Daum Maps or the Naver Maps app to see if the current GPS location is confirmed.
