Eircodes

Question

Eircodes

When are Apple going to support Eircodes (Ireland Postcodes)? I don’t understand this, Apple have made a mess twice in their ‘major overhaul’ of maps. I can’t save my home or work address correctly as the location is wrong and I might as well report the problem to my dog! The Eircode system is live since April 2014. Surely this is just a basic requirement and not something we should be highlighting. Apple users like me are forced to use Google because their maps are so accurate and guess what ... use ... Eircode for years!

Apple doesn’t routinely monitor the discussions. These are mostly user to user discussions.

If you want to, you can send Apple feedback. They won't answer, but at least will know there is a problem or a suggestion for change. If enough people send feedback, it may get the problem/suggested change solved sooner. Pick the closest topic you can find.

Seems to be working intermittently now, could be just businesses though. You have to enter the code without the space in your contact’s address for some reason.

It’s random, and bizarre to say the least. You would think the database is the database and just a matter of uploading same (to a point). I checked a few addresses tonight, again - there is a mix of residential and commercial - no theme. It’s very disappointing for Apple customers. Can’t save my home or work location ... 2021
