Pochade

Hello lovers of Swatch,

Today over the next few hours we a preparing to change our application named Swatch to Pochade. Why this name change? Well to be clear and honest we got a Cease and Desist from Swatch AG for using the name Swatch. While we feel that our Swatch application doesn’t fall into the same category as clothing and accessories we have chosen to comply with their request. We just want to make awesome applications that users love to use. We can’t do that if we’re spending all our money on lawyers and fighting legal battles.

So now what? Well to start, we have released an update for Swatch that will help you migrate to Pochade. All your color swatches will remain intact, you will only have to manually update any alias and the Dock item. We’re trying to make this as easy as possible, so if you run into any trouble, please contact us at http://help.fuelcollective.com and we’ll help you out.

Didn’t this happen before with Eon? Yes.

What are you going to do about naming future apps? Well since Eon we’re being extra careful with naming our apps and have been looking at Trademark entries on the official trademark website.
