MASTER-Tavrida robotic telescope  (Global MASTER-Net: http://observ.pereplet.ru, Lipunov et al., 2010, Advances in Astronomy, vol. 2010, 30L)  located in Russia (Lomonosov MSU, SAI Crimea astronomical station) was pointed to the Swift GRB190631. (trigger No 912239, 19h 35m 37.92s , -32d 45m 03.60s, R=0.05) errorbox  50 sec after trigger time at 2019-06-30 23:53:49 UT, with upper limit up to  17.8 mag. Observations started at twilight.  The observations began at zenit distance = 78 deg. The sun  altitude  is -16.8 deg. 

MASTER-OAFA robotic telescope  located in Argentina (OAFA observatory of San Juan National University) was pointed to the Swift GRB190631. errorbox  56 sec after trigger time at 2019-06-30 23:53:55 UT, with upper limit up to  17.6 mag. The observations began at zenit distance = 71 deg. The sun  altitude  is -27.2 deg. 

MASTER-IAC robotic telescope  located in Spain (IAC Teide Observatory) was pointed to the Swift GRB190631. errorbox  83 sec after trigger time at 2019-06-30 23:54:22 UT, with upper limit up to  18.8 mag. The observations began at zenit distance = 68 deg. The sun  altitude  is -36.0 deg. 

The galactic latitude b = -60 deg., longitude l = 98 deg.
