How To Hide Your Points of Interest on Google Maps
You can temporarily remove your favorite place, travel plans and routes, starred places, and more. Follow the below steps:
- Go to Google Maps on your device. I’ll use a PC for this demonstration.
- Tap on the Saved button.
- If you want to hide your Favorite places, tap on the three dots, then click hide on your map.
- All your favorite places will disappear.
- You can also tap the three dots on your starred places and remove them.
Google Maps allows you to hide your points of interest if you’re overwhelmed by the many icons on your screen. These steps will help you remove your pins, favorite spots, starred places, restaurants, and more.
