iPhone users are being urged to come forward and apply for Apple’s privacy lawsuit settlement.

If you owned an iPhone or iPad with Siri on it in the last decade, you might be able to claim a piece of the $95 million settlement.

Potentially eligible members of the lawsuit are receiving emails about a 'Lopez Voice Assistant Class Action Settlement,' explaining that they could be owed money.

Am I eligible for a Siri settlement payout?

According to Apple Insider, the settlement is for anyone in the US who owned a Siri-enabled Apple device between 17 September 2014 and 31 December 2024, and thinks the voice assistant listened to a private conversation.

During this period, users must believe that Siri was accidentally triggered and that Apple may have collected and possibly shared their private or confidential conversations with third parties.

How much could I get from the settlement?

As for compensation, how much you could get depends on how many people apply and how much is left over after deductions. Specifically, court-approved attorneys' fees and expenses, service awards, and the costs associated with notice and settlement administration will all reduce the final amount given.

Class members can submit claims for up to five Siri-enabled devices that they believe to have had an unexpected Siri activation during a private conversation.

Each valid claim could earn up to $20 per device, so as much as $100 total per person. That said, the final amount is likely to be less once legal fees and other costs are taken out and the money gets divided.

How to submit a Siri settlement claim

Claims need to be submitted by 2 July 2025 and can be completed through a dedicated website for the settlement, though it could take a while before you see any settlement cash. If you didn't get a notice but believe you are eligible, you can still go to the official settlement website and select New Claim.

Although Apple agreed to the million-dollar payout to settle the lawsuit, the tech giant is denying any guilt or wrongdoing, the settlement notice states.

The lawsuit dates back to 2019, when it was revealed that Apple had used human contractors to review private Siri recordings, as part of the AI's quality assurance program.

Following reports and backlash, Apple paused the program and later made it opt-in, giving users more control over their data and easier ways to delete their recordings.
