Apple Sends MiKandi Cease-and-Desist Over 'App Store' Term

Apple sent adult app supplier MiKandi a cease-and-desist order asking the company to stop using the term ?app store.?

Mikandi had dubbed itself as ?the world?s first app store for adults? but has since replaced any references to ?app store? with ?app market.?

This week, Apple also hit Amazon with a suit over its use of the term ?Appstore,? which Amazon launched this week anyway.

?Our pockets aren?t as deep as Amazon?s, so today, we?re introducing you to MiKandi ? the world?s first app market for adults,? MiKandi said in its blog. ?While it?s not worth it for us to fight Apple?s legal team over this by ourselves, perhaps we can file an amicus brief to Microsoft?s case.?

MiKandi recently released its iBoobs app for Android, which was banned from Apple?s App store and Google?s App market.
