Google map. HTF to get rid of drop pin for ever?
Drive me freaking nuts.
Is there a way to stop of get rid of Latest IN The Area? Every freaking time I open the map. I see people's pics of places they recommend in the local area. Is that a place I can just go to without everyone's BS and pictures. All the local BS from restaurant and dessert shop pops up. I got lost out in the desert today and all I got was this BS. If I left my finger on the screen for just 1/2 second longer, the goddamn drop pin appears then the place covers half the screen. Know of a way to just have a simple map, no need for voice telling me how far and which lane to turn. |

I use Waze for driving.
Lots of map options and you can silence the chatter. The APP also remembers past destination and they are very easy to pull up.

In the DC area I could not live without the driving instructions...especially when we did a lot of travel to Northern Va and Baltimore. It is a mess here and the turn by turns are invaluable. One last little thing: You can change the voice of the Waze verbal prompts. I mix them up, from Top Gear, to a female Australian and beyond
