Remove pins on Google Maps

[mba123]

Does anyone know how to remove a pin once it is placed on the Google Maps app without rebooting the app?

I can't seem to find a way and consequently the pin information bar takes up part of my lower screen.

This bugs me too....found a few possible answers here:

If it's a pin from a search, then clearing the search field should also clear the relevant pins.

If it's a pin left on the map after a long press on a location, then tapping another part of the screen should clear it.

Thanks! Can't believe I didn't try this!
