Flash Mode shows the screenshot only briefly. The timer starts only after the image has fully loaded, so slow connections are never punished.
A three-step scan
- First: kingdom color palette
- Second: the biggest landmark in frame
- Third: which direction the camera faces

Don't panic-click
Once the image is gone you have all the time you need to place the pin. Use it.
