Key Points:
- Apple has agreed to pay $250 million to settle a U.S. class action lawsuit over delayed personalized Siri features, with eligible iPhone users potentially receiving up to $95 each.
- The lawsuit arose after Apple previewed advanced Siri capabilities in June 2024 but delayed their launch in March 2025, leading to allegations of false advertising.
- Eligibility for the settlement includes U.S. residents who purchased specific iPhone 15 Pro or iPhone 16 models between June 10, 2024, and March 29, 2025, with claims expected to require proof of purchase or device information.
- Payments will start at $25 per eligible device but could increase to $95 depending on the total number of claims submitted, with a settlement website and claims form launching in the coming months.
- Apple plans to release the personalized Siri features later in 2025 as part of the iOS 27, iPadOS 27, and macOS 27 updates, according to CEO Tim Cook.
