Recently (past week? since iOS 16.2 update?) I started noticing that my parked car location was being marked, even though the setting of (General > Maps > Show Parked Location) is off. Anyone w/ideas how to troubleshoot?
Hi there GAZ8,
We can help. Try following these steps to remove the marker for your parked car:
Remove the Parked Car marker for your car’s current location: Touch and hold the marker, then tap Remove Car.
Afterwards, make sure you're going to the correct menu in Settings on your iPhone to turn that feature off:
Never show your parked location: Go to Settings> Maps, then turn off Show Parked Location.
You'll find this information here: Get directions to your parked car in Maps on iPhone
Afterwards, try restarting your iPhone: Restart your iPhone
If the issue persists beyond those steps, you can reach out to Apple Support directly for more help. They're best-equipped to take a closer look at the issue and provide some additional guidance. This link will help you get started: Contact - Official Apple Support
Take care.
G'day GAZ8,
Thanks for following up! Since you've verified that setting was off and you're finding that this happens on iOS 16.2 after restarting as well, we recommend using this link to reach us directly: Apple Support
Best wishes.
Update: I think this is actually related to my new Apple Watch and watchOS 9 rather than iOS.
Thanks, but as mentioned, I already have the setting off. iOS is just ignoring the setting. :)
