You did work together, or more accurately, you did all the work for them. You took the risk of making an app that users like, 9gag saw that the risky work had been done (and that people would use it) and now knows that they don't need you any more.

That said, I am impressed by a person who can get thousands of people to install his/her app. Now that you know how to get people, you can traverse the trademark line more safely in the future.
