Hi Peter,

You are right (when it comes to full maps).

On full maps the "internal POIs" are always displayed, like supermarkets
(purple), hospitals (red cross), restaurants (brown) and others. I had not
realised that, but indeed: they are always displayed!
In the past that was not the case. Each of them belongs to a certain POI
category and could be displayed, or not. Now they are always displayed,
even if I completely switch off POIs (hide them).

If I only have in my custom filter to show "danger of avalanche" (from
Danger) and "BMX" (from Sports), then only these 2 POIs should be displayed
on the Map. (note that I never used these, but I now created that filter)

In my car on my 10.1" Android head unit (not a phone), I only use
roads-only maps. There it works like I explained. If I switch off POIs, I
don't see POIs.
If I select a certain category, I do see that category.
If I select one of my filters, I only see those POIs.
There is one exception (bug?) on roads-only maps as well: I always see bus
stations (when zoomed in enough). Actually I don't want these either in my
car on my roads-only maps. I don't need those in my car (except when my car
breaks down :( )
But maybe this is a design decision. Something like: Roads-only maps are
used for driving and transportation.

But it does not work like that on the full maps. I always see a certain
amount of "internal POIs" (like you call them).
(I use the full map of the Netherlands on my phone for walking and cycling.)

I think we have to file this as a bug. Maybe the DEV team decides
differently, but we will see.
