MapQuest also launched a tool that allows people to create their own name for the lake.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>MapQuest said Monday that hundreds of thousands of people have downloaded the app since the company announced it would keep the name Lake Ontario. Usage of the app is also running roughly 50 times its normal rate, the company said.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We took the same approach we did with the Gulf of Mexico: be part of the conversation, and give people an app that keeps the names they&#8217;re familiar with,&#8221; Doug Berger, general manager of MapQuest, said in a statement on Monday. &#8220;Hundreds of thousands of people signaled to us this weekend that we got it right, by downloading our app.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Mr. Trump ordered the name change for Lake Ontario last week as the U.S. and Canada clashed over trade issues. The countries mutually imposed 50% tariffs on some imports after failing to reach a deal.<\/p>\n<p>The White House didn&#8217;t immediately respond to a request for comment on MapQuest&#8217;s decision not to change Lake Ontario&#8217;s name.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Google Maps <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.google\/products-and-platforms\/products\/maps\/gnis-lake-ontario-lake-america-name-change\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">announced<\/a>\u00a0over the weekend that it was <span class=\"link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/lake-america-trump-order-google-maps-lake-ontario\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">updating its maps <\/a><\/span>to reflect Mr. Trump&#8217;s new name for Lake Ontario, which straddles the border between New York and the Canadian province of Ontario. A search for &#8220;Lake Ontario&#8221; on Google now directs people to &#8220;Lake America.&#8221;\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>As of Sept. 1, Apple Maps was still displaying &#8220;Lake Ontario&#8221; as the name for the body of water.<\/p>\n<p>Denver-based MapQuest was launched in 1996 and was one of the first mapping services. It provided step-by-step navigation instructions, which many printed out to take with them on their car rides before GPS became more ubiquitous.\u00a0<\/p>\n<section class=\"content__body--footer\">\n<p class=\"content__meta--editors\">\n      Edited by<\/p>\n<p>                                  <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/team\/alain-sherter\/\" class=\"byline__author__link\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">Alain  Sherter<\/a>\n                      <\/p>\n<\/section>\n<p>  <!-- data-recirc-source=\"queryly\" --><\/p>\n<aside class=\"component list recirculation component--type-recirculation  \">\n<p><h3 class=\"component__title\">More from CBS News<\/h3>\n<\/p>\n<div class=\"component__item-recirc-block\">\n<p><h3 class=\"component__title\">Go deeper with The Free Press<\/h3>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/aside>\n<section class=\"content__body--footer\">\n      <!-- tags --><\/p>\n<section class=\"content__tags\">\n<p class=\"content__tags__label\">In:<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/section><\/div>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-6606220950177433\"\r\n     crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script>\r\n<!-- ItShrt World News -->\r\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\r\n     style=\"display:block\"\r\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-6606220950177433\"\r\n     data-ad-slot=\"1882483372\"\r\n     data-ad-format=\"auto\"\r\n     data-full-width-responsive=\"true\"><\/ins>\r\n<script>\r\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\r\n<\/script>\r\n<br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/mapquest-no-1-app-lake-ontario\/\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Thirty years after launching during the dot-com boom, MapQuest has a new roadmap to success.
