If there is a group in for example Pinterest or facebook that has the same name as the app I am creating. I reserved the name in my iTunes connect account, is that allowed or do I get in trouble. Thanks, Best wishes, Samira Title Comments Hi, I am sorry if this is not the right place to ask this question, but I thought someone might know.

If Apple accepts your app with it's name, that's the way it is. You won't be able to name your app 'coca cola' or something that obviously pulls from a registered trademark or copyrighted material. But social media 'groups' shouldn't be an issue. Good Luck! Cheers! -- Smug Comments You do not get into trouble. If Apple accepts your app with it's name, that's the way it is.
