Someone created an app that was very similar to an idea I had-- anything I can do?

Hi r/LegalAdviceUK!

Edited to add: I'm in London, England.

So as I was cruising around the London Social Club reddit page, I noticed an event being advertised on an app that, to my surprise, had the same concept I had come up with! For reference, check out these pics: https://imgur.com/a/GY03cmZ

The top image is from the iOS store's app page of an app that has the same name, premise, functionality, and even color scheme of an app idea I presented as part of a UX Design Course I was in back in August 2021; note that the app on the iOS store launched v1.0 in July 2022. The bottom image is a few screenshots of my presentation.

Now I'm just curious, but is there anything I can do here legally? Just wondering because this is waaaay too weird to be a coincidence. There's so much that's similar that there's no way this happened by chance right?

Thanks for your thoughts!
