Apple Maps has seemingly taken a half step in addressing the United States Gulf of Mexico renaming, but it isn't clear if this is the permanent solution or a placeholder.

However, Trump's order only applies to the U.S. government's official position. Though headquartered in the U.S., corporations such as Google and Apple aren't beholden to the president's directive to rename the landmarks, raising questions as to whether they'll update their popular map services to reflect the government's stance.

Google plans to change the name of the Gulf of Mexico to Gulf of America and that of the Alaskan mountain Denali to Mount McKinley in Google Maps, the company said Tuesday in a series of tweets. The news follows President Donald Trump's executive order to rename the body of water and mountain on his first day in office.
