What this record means

The record shows that the application for “MINDFUL MEDIA LLC. WILL DEVELOP AN APPLICATION THAT CAN BE DOWNLOADED ONTO A MOBILE DEVICE SUCH AS IOS IPHONE, ANDROID OR ANY OTHER CLASSIFIABLE DEVICE. THE PURPOSE OF THIS APPLICATION IS TO PROVIDE THE USER WITH A PLATFORM THAT MONITORS THEIR MEDIA EXPOSURE AND OFFERS SELF-CARE RECOMMENDATIONS (MENTAL HEALTH RESOURCES, PHYSICAL ACTIVITY TIPS, ETC.)” is dead; it was refused and dismissed on June 7, 2021 because the USPTO determined the serial number was assigned in error and the filing did not meet minimum date requirements. The owner listed is Amber Lois Thornton, a Missouri limited liability company, and the only goods covered are “downloadable application programming interface (API) software for mobile devices” in International Class 009. Because the filing never became a live registration, the record does not give the owner control over every use of the words “Mindful Media” or similar phrasing, but it does indicate a concern for software that runs on phones or tablets. The prosecution history contains only the entry of a new application on March 8, 2021 and no further actions, and the supplied history shows no enforcement activity such as oppositions or cancellations. I'd treat this as a modest concern if you plan to launch a mobile‑app software product under a name that closely resembles “Mindful Media,” since the closest area of overlap is the same class of downloadable API software.
