More annoying nags and popups from Google.

Hi

It seems that once I figure out how to get rid of one type of recurring Google popup, another takes its place.

Yesterday, I walked through a shopping centre not too far from my home.

Since then, Google keeps throwing the following task bar icon and lock screen popup at me on my phone (Note 4 - Android 6.0.1) about the shopping centre. I have disabled every notification option I can see in Google Maps, but still this popup persists.

When I click the popup, it takes me to Google "Shopping Centre Directory" :/ Ummmm

I think eventually, I may have to disable every little hidden Google option on my phone.

Anyone any idea how to turn this off?

Many thanks

Mr M
