My two cents: go ahead, do it anyway and use the competition as inspiration on which features to add, which to leave away and which to improve. I was in a similar situation some time ago. I started working on an app with the main reason to teach myself Android programming. After a while I was quite content with the app and contemplated releasing it on the app store. I then started to become aware that this was a space were over a dozen other apps existed. I decided to go ahead anyway. Now it has grown to become a source of a bit of additional income and I dare to say meanwhile it's the most useful one of its kind on the app store (but still not the most popular one).
