What this record means
The record shows that the mark “IPHONE” is live and registered on the Principal Register, owned by Apple Inc., a corporation organized in California. The registration covers services in class 037, specifically installation, maintenance, repair, and servicing of consumer electronic devices, digital audio and video players, handheld computers, personal digital assistants, electronic organizers, and electronic notepads, as well as related technical support and troubleshooting services. A similar name would raise the closest concern for businesses offering those same kinds of electronic device repair or support services. The record does not give Apple control over every use of the word “IPHONE” in all contexts; it is limited to the listed services. The latest status event is the acceptance of a Sections 8 and 15 combined declaration on June 21, 2022. No opposition, cancellation, or enforcement activity appears in the supplied history. For someone looking to use a similar name in a different field, the risk is lower, but in the same repair or support space the concern is significant.
