Open Google Maps on your iPhone or iPad. It’s a map icon with a “G” and red pin. You’ll typically find it on one of the home screens.
Search for a location to pin. Before you can remove a pin, you’ll need to place one on the map. Drag the map to the place you want to pin, or use the search bar at the top of the screen to find it by name or address.Advertisement
Zoom in closer. Place two fingers close together on the location, then spread them apart on the screen. This zooms in closer so you can place the pin in the right spot.
Tap and hold the location. The pin now appears at that spot.
Tap X. It’s in the box at the top of the screen next to “Dropped Pin.” This removes the pin from the map.
