APPLE

What this record means

The record shows that the mark “APPLE” is live and registered on the Principal Register, owned by Apple Inc., a corporation organized in California. The registration was filed on February 5, 2008 and issued on May 19, 2009, with the most recent status update on July 1, 2020 confirming renewal. The goods covered are toys, games and playthings, specifically hand‑held units for playing electronic and video games, stand‑alone video game machines, LCD game machines, electronic educational game machines for children, and battery‑powered computer games with display screens that feature animation and sound effects. A similar name used for products in this same category would raise the closest record‑based concern. The record does not give the owner control over every use of the word “APPLE” in all contexts. No opposition, cancellation, or enforcement activity appears in the supplied history. For anyone thinking of using a similar name for electronic gaming toys, the presence of this active registration suggests a meaningful risk of conflict.
