Additional Information

This issue reproduces as of Field Maps version 25.2.2 on both iOS (Build 2330) and Android (Build 2448). Generally, a point should not be placed if the GPS accuracy of the device exceeds the required accuracy. (The required accuracy distance can be adjusted in the Field Maps settings by navigating to Profile > Collection Settings > Accuracy.) However, in this case, it seems the point is not being placed even when the device GPS accuracy is within the required accuracy threshold.
