Apple Maps has officially renamed Lake Ontario to Lake America in the US, following a similar move by Google and an executive order from President Trump amid a trade dispute with Canada. The Canadian version of Apple Maps still displays 'Lake Ontario,' while international versions show both names.
Background
The renaming follows a US executive order during ongoing trade tensions between the US and Canada, prompting both major tech companies to update their geographic databases to reflect the change.
