I had an idea around 2 weeks ago , thought about it worked on it, made the initial designs. Then just today i did a web search to see if there was something similar to it . What i found out was that it was already being done in some European countries for the past 12 years . Sure my app was going to be a little different but the basic idea was same , and if they had patented it , they would have sued me if my app ever got big. So it demotivated me and i trashed it .
