I live in Japan. My iPhone uses English as its primary language, and the region is set to the US.
Apple Maps gives a correct address for my residence. However, when I add my address to my Contact card as my home, either through Apple Maps or manually, Apple Maps won’t recognize it. It won’t appear as my home under Favorites, and clicking on it from my Contact card results in no matching location. It appears in the search results on Apple Maps too, but clicking on it there results in no matching location too.
This is problematic because when asking Siri for directions, I’m guided to my general neighborhood and not to my residence. It’s also problematic because location based Reminders don’t work when I’m actually at home.
I get the same results when writing the address in Japanese. I’ve exhausted all my ideas for fixing it. Has anyone run into the same or similar problems? Any advice?
I’d be interested to know if anyone in Japan has the same problem when their iPhone language and region are set to Japanese and Japan.
