How do I edit Apple Maps?

Hi, I'd like to edit the Apple Maps, because we have lot of errors.

For Example Budapest, Hungary, District name is "Majorszegidűlő", who and why gave this name? How to edit? My All pictures, posts from "Majorszegidűlő" which are not exist in the whole Budapest, because "Majorszegidűlő" part of Csömör.

Others and me reported as MAP ERROR without any answer.

My question again. Can I fix the map or edit by myself?

Anybody make this modification for the Budapest's District XVI. users?

Thanks from Budapest, Mátyásföld instead of Majorszegidűlő.

You miss understand me. I opened this thread to solve this burning map error. Not for closing so fast. If you can’t help me why try to answer always? Please... let this thread clean.

I’d like to ask everyone, please don’t answer because of  or because of tomtom or because of google or find alternatives because I don’t want.

I looking for a solution not for a problems!

Do you have any apple product? I'm sorry but... You probably doesn't know, almost all application which is location based use apple map to identifying the location, including PHOTOS, WEATHER, INSTA, etc...
I left some map problems directly on TOM-TOM (as 3 years ago, as 2 years ago, and 1 year ago... and now in Septembre.
It's terrible.... Nobody read me @ Apple? NOBODY?

And nobody check my reports @ TOM-TOM????
NOBODY??? From 2014? Really? Burning....

Two iPhones, three iPads, a MacBook Pro, two Apple Watches and an Apple TV. But what I own changes nothing. The suggestions are still the same: report it to Apple, use a different app, live with it.

Yes... I see you have  devices. Yes... Like mine collection. Now I sending this message from Majorszegidűlő instead of Budapest. If I use any app like meteo, instaweather, weather, web page, almost all program on my devices reports wrong location. Weather as well... Yes... I've to use google weather... If I want to know what is real forecasts.

There is no solution that anyone here can give you. Only Apple can fix this issues. That has already been explained.

Currently, the only thing you can do is keep reporting and encourage people to do likewise.

Sounds good, thanks!

I'll try to report to TomTom... My favorit Maps application the Waze. Powerful, good, quick, almost immediately changes on the livemap!

Anyway, I'll report the bugs to TomTom too! 🙂 Maybe have to wait to the next map generation in 2015 Q1 😟

deggie, thank you for the info, i left my reports to the TomTom guys on the map... Couple of turn-restrictions, missing roundabouts and the missing neighborhood city names.

Now I'm waiting for a miracle!

Okay... My map comments disappeared from TomTom. It's roasting...
Part of capital city of Hungary, still WRONG in the district XVI of Budapest... Still Majorszegidűlő instead of Sashalom...

😟
