What does the term patent pending mean after you have applied?

The term patent pending informs the public that a person filed a patent application with the United States Patent and Trademark Office for that particular item. The patent pending designation does not give the person any legal rights; it just means that the patent office will review their application. It does not guarantee that a patent will be awarded. It is a warning to potential competitors. Hopefully they won’t put the time and money into developing a product for which you may end up holding the patent.
