So during the installation, I must of missed how one small part of the sand cove got messed up and pushed back a bit and one smaller part was flattened out a bit, any worries? the pool is full now and I am a bit concerned about it. about a foot or so is flattened (prob from the walls and I did not notice it) and another foot is about an inch away from the wall, the rest has a nice cove in it. Let me know!
 
Hello and Welcome to TFP!
The flat part of the cove is probably OK. Hard to tell without a picture.
If there is a part of the cove that is 1" away from the wall, that will be an issue. The liner will get trapped down there and possibly tear from the water pressure. Provide a pic if you can. If the liner is down behind the cove, then you will need to fix that before the liner ruptures.
 
I can’t take a picture at the moment but basically everything’s been fine so far haven’t had one issue knock on wood.. I was thinking about when I close the pool for the season to drain it completely fix it and then fill it back up below the skimmer
 
When the water filled it must’ve pushed the liner down in that 1 inch crevice, Doesn’t look like it’s stretched or anything I’m just more worried about the pressure against the bottom track. Maybe that small section won’t allow enough pressure to push that far since some of the water pressure is hitting that cove, If the line or tears I’d rather have that happen and then the wall buckle out either way I think at the end of the season it would be a good idea to just drain it take the liner out push the sand over and then put the liner back on and fill it back up
