Did you buy an iPhone previously and experience performance issues after you installed a software update? Apple has admitted to slowing down older devices with the software, but said it only did so to "prolong the life" of the devices. A class action lawsuit was launched against Apple, and it has now been resolved.
US customers are eligible for a claim for roughly $25 if they purchased one of the following phones before December 21, 2017:
- iPhone 6
- iPhone 6 Plus
- iPhone 6s
- iPhone 6s Plus
- iPhone 7
- iPhone 7 Plus

A website has been set up for individuals who would like to submit a claim:
