Never, I think. Apple Maps doesn't import from OSM.
Also you're pretty lucky if your suggestions to Google or Apple are taken into account quickly. Most times they can linger for months or even years, and even get randomly refused or ignored. At least in OSM you can fix the map directly.
- Doctor_Fegg 6y agoApple uses OSM in certain areas. I believe there’s one European country where Apple’s sole datasource is OSM.
- saagarjha 6y agoApple has been fairly quick to run updates in my experience–usually I get a response within a week.
- flother 6y agoApple has an active team editing OpenStreetMap and their maps use OSM data in many countries. I see them making edits in my country regularly (they tag changesets with “#adt” so they’re quite visible).
