appgratisOver the weekend, Apple yanked a popular app from its App Store. AppGratis is an app service that offers up app suggestions and teams up with developers in order to provide both discounted apps and free apps for its users. Before being pulled, AppGratis was an immensely popular app and the company behind it recently earned more than $13 million from investors.

A newly published document from the USPTO from last Wednesday reveals that the office withdrew its objections over the iPad mini trademark.
