The Movie Database atbalsts

Hello everybody. I have been building an app over the past year for a university project and recently uploaded it to Google Play for a small alpha test. When checking this morning to see whether it had been published to the store yet I received a nice letter saying it was removed due to IP infringement.

This is the paragraph in the email which addresses the problem:

REASON FOR REMOVAL: Violation of the intellectual property and impersonation or deceptive behavior provisions of the Content Policy. Please refer to the IP infringement and impersonation policy help article for more information. Your app and/or elements of its listing on Google Play, including title, description, logo(s), or promotional screenshots must not include unauthorized usage of protected works belonging to a third party. Your app icon and promotional screenshots must not contain images that appear confusingly similar to existing products.

I don't know exactly what caused it to be removed as many other apps which use The Movie DB feature similar screenshots and so on.

I uploaded the screenshots I used for the listings, the basic logo and promo image, and the signed Android APK to my OneDrive account. If someone could please take a look at these for me and advice me on where I went wrong that would be great.

Due to security issues I don't expect you to download and install the APK, it is there incase you do feel the need to take a look.

I don't know how I can fix the app/listings or what the problem is.

Thanks in advanced for anyone who helps, Chris.
