Epic app idea.
So, a few of you know that my teacher is making an app making club. Me and another kid came up with the best idea ever...
The only problem is that I don't want someone taking it, but I want feedback 
What should I do? I mean anyone can view these forums...

You can't copyright ideas, unfortunately.

Re: Epic app idea.
Give a hint. Like a topic. Angry birds: What do y'all think about a game about toppling towers?
Remember, in a good app, even if the concept is good, sometimes little ideas make all the difference. Where would Cut the Rope be if somebody thought: hey, why not replace 'level' by 'box' and put a cute green candy-loving Om Nom rather than a target? Incidentally, those are the Ideas I have an overflow of, but no core Idea to add them to.

Re: Epic app idea.
I think that Apple accepts 'it was my idea first's on it's apps if you have some sort of proof. If you give them a link leading here, then they'll be able to see the date, and that should get them to take it down if someone steals your idea.
PS. Apple recently made it's own game on the App Store. Then it got taken down from the App Store because it violated some rules. LOL!!!!!!

actually you can
it's called patents
I don't know too much about patents, but I'm pretty sure you can't patent a book or app idea.
