Apple follows Google Maps, renames Lake Ontario to Lake America

After Google Maps, Apple Maps has now renamed Lake Ontario as “Lake America” for users in the US after a presidential executive order. The update means Apple users in the United States will see ‘Lake America’ when viewing the Great Lake that sits between New York and Canada’s Ontario province. Users outside the US will continue to see the lake as Lake Ontario. Sharing a post on X (formerly Twitter), US President Donald Trump called the name change 'complete, ratified, and binding'.“Apple Maps has just announced that it has changed the name of Lake Ontario to Lake America, so now that very important change of names, between Google Maps and Apple Maps, is complete, ratified, and binding. Thank you for your attention to this matter! President DONALD J.
