Apple Maps is now displaying Lake Ontario as “Lake America” for users in the United States following President Donald Trump\u2019s executive order directing the federal government to rename the Great Lake.<\/p>\n
FOX Business confirmed the change Tuesday by reviewing Apple Maps, which showed “Lake America” on the map and in the location details for the body of water.<\/p>\n
Apple confirmed to Reuters that U.S. users will see “Lake America,” while users in Canada will continue to see “Lake Ontario.” Users elsewhere will see both names.<\/p>\n

The change follows Trump\u2019s Aug. 27 executive order directing the Department of the Interior, in coordination with the Board on Geographic Names, to rename Lake Ontario as Lake America and update the federal Geographic Names Information System, or GNIS.<\/p>\n

The order also directs federal agencies to use the new name in maps, contracts, documents and communications. It applies to federal usage and does not require Canada, international organizations or private companies to adopt the designation.<\/p>\n

Apple\u2019s move came after Interior Secretary Doug Burgum said on FOX Business\u2019 “Mornings with Maria” that Trump had reached out to Apple directly regarding the Maps designation.<\/p>\n
Google made a similar change days earlier. The company said its Maps service would show “Lake America” to U.S. users after the GNIS update, while Canadian users would continue to see “Lake Ontario” and users in other countries would see both names.<\/p>\n
The approach mirrors how Apple and Google handled Trump\u2019s 2025 decision to rename the Gulf of Mexico as the Gulf of America for federal purposes.<\/p>\n

Canadian officials have rejected the Lake America designation. Prime Minister Mark Carney and New York Gov. Kathy Hochul said after Trump\u2019s order that they would continue referring to the body of water as Lake Ontario, according to Reuters.<\/p>\n
