I currently have a webapp which draws points of interest using the maps api, however I have noticed a small annoyance which I would like to turn off if possible.
Right now when the google map is loaded, it will show points of interest and local business (city hall, pizza hut, etc...). I don't mind the wording showing up labelling them, but I do not want these points clickable, as if often happens that people using touchscreens hit these points accidentally
Is there a way to turn this feature off?
You can turn them off using map Styling. The specific style would be
[
{
featureType: "poi",
stylers: [
{ visibility: "off" }
]
}
]
