I have an embarrassing navigation (may those without sin cast the first stone) location in my history. Deleting it (long press, X) only temporarily removes it and it comes right back. It even taunts me by being in the suggested locations.

I haven’t found anything other than a full reset of the computer. Anyone have any ideas?

Update: swiping right to delete a location works. I checked later and it’s still gone, and so far not showing up as a recommendation.

    Future Pro Tip: Just enter an address of across the street or the next block.

      Carplay would be perfect

      1. DaDivineLatte

        Carplay and Android Auto are intentionally left out. Which is a shame because I don't like adapting to an entirely different map system. You'd think for how expensive these cars are, you'd get support for those widely-used applications.

    OP, please tell us where you went

    This is fantastic. Thank you for the entertainment OP.

    Did you possibly save it as a favorite? Unfavoriting it might help.

    You can also try right-swiping it away, but that's provided people mixed results.

    But truth be told, there have been a good number of reports of people having this problem over the last 6-8 months.

    If nothing works for you, maybe consider adding a shitload of new destinations in an effort to get that offending location further down the list.

      No it’s not a favorite

        Sure, there are better ones on the city

    Meanwhile my issue was I was buying my now wife's engagement ring and was caught that way. LOL

    Tell us where first

    1. sfbay_throwaway1

      Ask Elon since he knows

    Swipe it away but carefully. It is possible to delete.

    Swiping to delete works, the long press and X has always never worked for me.

    1. sfbay_throwaway1

      I’ll give it a try again, but previously could never get swipe to do anything

      1. CalvinDuBois

        Which way are you swiping op?

        1. samebutanon

          Always front to back.

          1. Exciting-Giraffe-908

            Damn. I've been doing it wrong all these years. 😁

        2. sfbay_throwaway1

          Got delete to work swiping to right, though it’s not very responsive and can take a couple attempts. I’ll check back later if they stayed deleted.

          An unencouraging sign was that a deleted location still showed up in the recommendations. I don’t think you can delete the recommendations, only the history.

          1. CalvinDuBois

            Time to navigate to a bunch of random places to confuse the recommendation algorithm 🤣

    2. sfbay_throwaway1

      This is the correct answer. Thanks! Swiping right to delete was permanent. I updated the post.

    This great! But we need to know where you went!

    1. sfbay_throwaway1

      It will be one of history’s great mysteries lost to time/swipe right.

      1. reddit_user_5179

        Who knows, swipe right might’ve gotten you into this predicament!

  11. maxwe11

    My vote is for some sort of Roman spa / bath house thing.

    1. motech

      Or Asian. Or a strip club.

      1. Exciting-Giraffe-908

        Hope OP got a happy ending.

  12. Ok-Till-8905

    Oh lawd.

    Just wanted to comment to save a spot. I’ll be right back after I grab some popcorn

  13. LeagueOfMinions

    let me know if you find a solution

  14. Freybugthedog

    Strip club?

    1. Dull_Distribution844

      If it has a charger, no shame in that

      1. pobody

        Depends which socket he used
