It really isn't that simple.

How do you know which of the two apps has legal ownership of that name ? Or whether any of them do ?




It's really not that hard.

1. App released first by Appname LLC

2. App released much later by ENTER MOBILE APPS, a company with a lot of other obvious copyright violations like using the Skitch logo in a totally unrelated app.


Easy. I'll just wait for companies to announce their upcoming app, release a shell fake, and make the original developer pay for the privilege of using the name.
