Apple has agreed to pay $95 million to settle a class-action lawsuit that alleged its Siri voice assistant was listening in on users without their consent. If you own an Apple device and ever felt like Siri activated when you didn’t summon it, you may be entitled to up to $100.

The lawsuit claimed that Siri sometimes activated unintentionally and recorded audio, which was later reviewed by third parties. Although Apple has denied any wrongdoing, it has chosen to settle the case. That means you may be eligible for compensation even if Apple hasn’t admitted fault.

Who Qualifies for a Payout?

To receive a portion of the settlement, you must meet two main criteria:

1. You owned or purchased a Siri-enabled Apple device between September 17, 2014, and December 31, 2024.Eligible devices include:
   • iPhones
   • iPads
   • Apple Watches
   • MacBooks
   • iMacs
   • HomePods
   • iPod Touches
   • Apple TVs
2. You experienced unintended Siri activations, where Siri listened without you saying “Hey Siri” or pressing the trigger button.

If you meet both conditions, you can submit a claim.

How Much Can You Receive?

The maximum payout is $100 per person, depending on how many Siri-enabled devices you include in your claim.

• You can submit a claim for up to 5 devices.
• Each eligible device could fetch up to $20.

Payouts may be lower depending on how many people file claims.

Deadline to Submit: July 2, 2025

You must file your claim by July 2, 2025.
Payments will begin as early as August 2025, pending the final approval hearing scheduled for August 1, 2025.
