People using the application will see the new name in U.S., but will see Lake Ontario in Canada. Outside of North America, users will see both names for the lake.
HERE Maps will include the change, I 100% guarantee it. They have Gulf of America pushed to prod servers. (switch to US vpn location and you will see it)
No. I searched for Lake Ontario.
That comes up with the pictures etc, and that has Lake America in backets. Then I zoomed in to it and it was just Lake America. However that was yesterday, today it is back to Ontario.
The day before I also checked it out and it was only Ontario, without even the brackets. So it was only for a day for some reason.
I’m Canadian and I switched to maps.here.com, a European service as it provides good transit info. We need to move away from American hegemony.

As long as they only change it in the US, that’s fine with me. I’d still rather support the EU.
FYI… Changing it in the US only is exactly what Google is doing, just like with the Gulf.
Except I also have it as lake America and I’m in Europe.
Did you search for lake America? I’m also in Europe and replied to your other comment with pics. It defaults to lake Ontario for me.
