MapQuest应用因拒绝遵守特朗普8月27日的行政令而在美国苹果应用商店排名升至第一1。该行政令要求将安大略湖更名为"美国湖",MapQuest坚持保留原名,这一立场获得了用户的广泛响应,其应用下载量激增至平时的约50倍,成为美国第四大最受欢迎应用(不含游戏)1。MapQuest目前排名超越谷歌地图(排名第二)和苹果地图1。
相比之下,谷歌迅速妥协,已在美国用户界面中显示"美国湖",但其他地区用户仍显示"安大略湖"1。苹果在周二上午仍显示"安大略湖",内政部长Doug Burgum表示"确信"苹果将在总统直接联系后改为"美国湖"1。根据路透社/易普索民调(周二发布),特朗普的更名计划仅获14%美国人支持1。三名民主党众议员Tim Kennedy、Joe Morelle和Debbie Dingell于周一提出《放过五大湖法案》立法1。此前特朗普在2025年已将墨西哥湾改名为"美国湾",谷歌也在美国市场做出了妥协1。
MapQuest has surged to the top position on the US Apple App Store following its refusal to comply with an executive order issued on August 27, 2024, that would rename Lake Ontario to "Lake America." 1 The navigation app's defiant stance has resonated strongly with users, driving downloads to approximately 50 times their normal levels, making MapQuest the fourth most popular application in the United States, excluding games. 1 The app now ranks ahead of both Google Maps, which placed second, and Apple Maps. 1
The Trump administration's renaming initiative has faced significant public resistance, with only 14 percent of Americans supporting the plan according to a Reuters/Ipsos poll released on Tuesday. 1 While Google quickly capitulated and began displaying "Lake America" to US-based users, it continues to show "Lake Ontario" in other regions. 1 Apple was still displaying "Lake Ontario" on Tuesday morning, though Interior Secretary Doug Burgum expressed confidence that the company would change course following direct contact from the president. 1 In 2025, the administration renamed the Gulf of Mexico to "Gulf of America," and Google similarly complied in the US market. 1
The Lake Ontario controversy has also sparked legislative action from Democrats. 1 Three Democratic members of Congress—Tim Kennedy, Joe Morelle, and Debbie Dingell—introduced the "Hands Off Our Great Lakes Act" on Monday to address the renaming efforts. 1
