    And Meta will probably sue them.

      They wouldn’t have a case, since this other app can prove they’ve been available under that name for 4 years. However, I bet the low-ball offers to buy the app and domain have already started. I wonder what number they’ll eventually settle on…

        You can wonder all you want. We will never know. But probably “Best I can do is $3.50 and this cute cease and desist letter”.

        Doesn’t matter, they’ve got deeper pockets and can drag it out.

          True. They have a fair bit of leverage, though. Even just renaming the competing product would probably cost Meta a small fortune. I wouldn’t mind being in that situation.
