        "summary": "Apple has agreed to a $250 million settlement in a class-action lawsuit filed by US iPhone users who claimed the company delayed the launch of personalised Siri features announced at WWDC 2024, leading to misleading expectations. Eligible claimants could receive between $25 and $95 per device, depending on the number of claims, though Apple denies any wrongdoing and highlights its ongoing innovations in Apple Intelligence. The settlement, approved preliminarily, applies only to US users and requires proof of purchase for claims.",
        "content": "<p>Apple has finally agreed to pay a settlement to iPhone users. The\ncompany, headquartered in Cupertino, USA, is prepared to pay a total of\n250 million US dollars (approximately Rp 4.3 trillion). Meanwhile, the\namount to be paid for each device is estimated to reach 25 US dollars to\n95 US dollars (approximately Rp 433,000 to Rp 1.6 million). This\ncompensation is being provided after a group of iPhone users filed a\nclass-action lawsuit against the company. The lawsuit was filed last\nMarch. They sued because Apple delayed the launch of the personalised\nvirtual assistant Siri feature. However, this feature had already been\nannounced at the Worldwide Developer Conference (WWDC) 2024. The lawsuit\nalso stated that Apple \u201cflooded the internet, television, and various\nother media to build clear and reasonable expectations that these\nfeatures would be available when the iPhone was released.\u201d Although it\nhas agreed to the settlement money, Apple does not admit any fault.\nApple stated that they \u201cacted in good faith and in a manner believed to\ncomply with all applicable rules, regulations, and laws.\u201d \u201cSince the\nlaunch of Apple Intelligence, we have delivered dozens of features in\nvarious languages integrated across the Apple platform, relevant to\nusers\u2019 daily activities, and built with privacy protections at every\nstage,\u201d said an Apple spokesperson. \u201cThese features include Visual\nIntelligence, Live Translation, Writing Tools, Genmoji, Clean Up, and\nmany more,\u201d the spokesperson added, quoted by KompasTekno from 9to5Mac.\nThe compensation amount is 25 US dollars for each eligible device.\nHowever, this amount may vary depending on the number of claims filed by\neligible users. If the claim submission percentage is very high, the\npayment value could be lower. Meanwhile, the maximum payment limit is 95\nUS dollars per device. To file a claim, users must provide proof of\npurchase of the eligible device, such as the device serial number, Apple\naccount information, and phone number. This settlement has received\npreliminary approval today, and claim filing notifications will be sent\nwithin 45 days. It should be noted that this compensation is only\nprovided for users in the US, where the lawsuit was filed.<\/p>",
