is it possible to get rid of automatically assigned by Google (SDK for iOS) points of interest such as: schools, companies etc., on the map? Some of them are marked on the screenshot attached below.
I don't know a way to do that with the google maps API. I'd recommend to use MapKit instead.
There you could use the showsPointsOfInterest
method to set wether the points-of-interest should be visible or not.
When this property is set to true, the map displays icons and labels for restaurants, schools, and other relevant points of interest. The default value of this property is true.
