If you have not registered trademarks and have been using the same combination of symbols and words for an extended period then it is possible sometimes to establish a trademark claim, by having used it for a long time. 

A symbol can be your logo or even a wordmark. It is an image or visual element that you closely associate your business activities with. It could be a bird, a shape or even a specifically designed and drawn visual creation. 

When considering the impact of today’s digital world, having a strong and clear logo for your mobile app is very important. If your mobile application is unique and special then you must also look into protecting your intellectual property.
