Dude, you seem to be the only person on the planet who knew this. Well done and thanks. It was slightly different on the iPad but all credit goes to you.
Video quality would be better if you focused! An easier way though of getting rid of the red/purple pins: Tap in the 'Search or Address' bar at the top, this brings up the keyboard. Tap Clear, tap Done. Red/purple Pin Gone, hooray.
Thanks for the post. It was useful in finding an easier solution. It could be that the app has changed with the OS4 update. Now when you select the arrow that opens up the menu for the dropped pin there I an option right there to delete pin. Thanks
This is really helpful, thank you so much for posting this. Interestingly, until I turned off the phone and then back on, the pin still showed up. Even though the item was removed from the bookmark list. I must have done the delete three times, thinking I was nuts. Again, many thanks!
I don't know. That's odd. Do a hard reset by holding the home and on/off button until you see the Apple logo. I have not had this problem with this so far.
ur a lifesaver!! How come nobody else seems to know this? well thanks a ton!! :)

the iPad has an i inside a circle (to the right of the pin, get info)
the blue spot on the bottom is non existent (blurry video)
the way it works on an iPad is...
get directions, back track by tapping each step in the directions, one by one
then delete the name/address from the search bar

@anthonp1 Yeah that aren't any other videos on this. I made this video a long time ago. I'm surprised it's still useful.

This didn't work for me. After the last step shown in the video, when I tap Search, the old pins are still there.
