Apple trademark

[gagnonca]

I used this library in an app and Apple rejected the app for violating their trademark. Has anyone else had experience with this?

What exactly does your app look like? If it copies the look or some recognizable elements from one of Apple's own apps, they might indeed reject it.

I used this library so it looks similar the activity app but with different colors. I’m looking to see if there are other people who used this library and submitted their apps to Apple. Were they denied and if so, were you ever able to get your app approved while using this library?

I wasn’t even submitting to the App Store yet I was rejected by the TestFlight team for Violating Apple trademarks.

Are you familiar with any apps currently in the App Store who use this library?

My app Social Steps is using this library: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/social-steps/id1217028732

I never had any issues when submitting the app related to the ring. I am only displaying one ring though and it doesn't look at all like the activity rings.

Thanks, here is their trademark: https://www.patentlyapple.com/.a/6a0120a5580826970c01b7c86e49a5970b-pi

They didn't like that I had 3 concentric rings even though my colors were different. Specifically they didn't like that I also used it in the icon. I split the rings up in the app and changed the icon and they approved it. Seems silly since my app also had nothing to do with fitness or activity tracking.
