IPHONESerial 97731505 · Principal Register
Dead · Refused
Owner: Apple Inc.
Class 016 - Paper Goods & Printed Matter
Filed
The record shows that the mark “IPHONE” is dead and was refused by the USPTO; the application was dismissed because it did not meet minimum filing date requirements, and the serial number was assigned in error. The owner listed is Apple Inc., a corporation organized in California, and the mark was never actually registered. The only goods listed in the record are various paper and cardboard items, such as cardboard boxes, paper bags, and garbage bags, with first use in 2007. Because the mark was never granted, this history does not give Apple control over the word “IPHONE” in any other context. The prosecution history shows only a single entry for a new application on December 28, 2022, with no further examination or amendment. There are no oppositions, cancellations, or other enforcement actions recorded. For someone looking to use a similar name, the closest concern would be in the paper and cardboard goods area, but the record does not suggest a broader claim over the term.

The way I'd use it, honestly, is as the thing you attach when a bank, a marketplace, or a co-founder asks "are we clear on the name". It answers in one page.
