Last March, Apple was hit with a class action lawsuit after delaying the launch of the “more personalized Siri” that was first announced at WWDC 2024.
Apple agreed to settle the case in December, and the full settlement terms are now available.
Apple is set to pay $250 million to settle the lawsuit, equating to an estimated $25 per device. That number could reach up to $95 per device, depending on how many users submit claims.

The lawsuit said that Apple “promoted AI capabilities that did not exist at the time, do not exist now, and will not exist for two or more years.” It added that Apple “saturated the internet, television, and other airwaves to cultivate a clear and reasonable consumer expectation that these transformative features would be available upon the iPhone’s release.”
