Did you check in the library if the USA Points of interest are maybe deactivated? SU1 deactivated certain POIs for me and I don’t know why…

@BlackCatsRIP As @dxtr suggested, can you check whether you have USA Points of Interest disabled in ‘My Library’?

The linked issue is already feedback-logged so the issue is known to the devs by now.
