iOS Question Using Brand names within app

[tufanv]

Hello,

For example i am making a car race game . Can I use names of car manufacturers like BMW,Audi,Mercedes in my app or is it forbidden and the app will be rejected by the app review team ?

TY

I'm banned on Google Play (life time ban) for using brand names in my apps. I don't think Apple think any different.

True and false, that can be done, for the name of your App, it's forbidden and that's normal, trend mark is not yours, but your can expose manufacturers in your App, like in other apps providing classified Ads for exemple

You do what you think to do, as I say in first reply
