Great…. Mapquest it is….?
OpenStreetMap is a non corpo option

I've liked Organic Maps as a companion app

Edit: it's come to my attention OSM has Gulf of America labeled as a regional title for en-US users. Organic Maps database is an older snapshot and does not reflect the edit yet, but eventually will.

Awesome! Thanks!
Given that it's the official name even the open source options will follow suit as well eventually.
‘Official’ vomit. Maybe they will, but I can still stop using corporate trash
Yeah, definitely better to use open source alternatives. You could potentially change the language to UK English or Australian English and still see the internationally accepted name regardless of which app you use.
