How do I remove "nearby cocktail bars" on iOS 9? A friend of mine in AA (Alcoholics Anonymous) asked me if I knew of a way to remove "nearby bars" from his iPhone. This appears when you swipe left and the built in Maps feature displays this.
You can open settings -> general -> Spotlight Search, then turn off maps. This is a workaround, but it will not give you gas stations or anything of that type either.
