Canadians who were affected by Apple's iPhone 'batterygate' slowdown, can now submit claims as part of a class action lawsuit settlement approved by approved by the British Columbia Supreme Court on March 4, 2024. This follows a similar settlement Apple paid out to users in the United States.

If you want to participate in the class action and benefit from this Settlement, you will need to submit a valid claim by no later than September 2, 2024. Apple has agreed to pay between $11,137,500 CAD and $14,427,500 CAD in consideration of the full and final settlement of the claims of Class Members. The settlement could pay out up to $150 CAD per device.


As the Settlement has been approved, Apple will provide a cash payment to each Class Member who submits an Approved Claim. To receive a cash payment, Class Members must submit a valid Claim Form for each iPhone device by no later than September 2, 2024. The Claim Form requires each Class Member to provide, among other things, the Class Member's name, mailing address, iPhone serial number and a declaration under oath by the Class Member stating that (i) their iPhone 6, 6 Plus, 6s, 6s Plus, or SE iPhone ran iOS version 10.2.1 or later (for iPhone 6, 6 Plus, 6s, 6s Plus, and SE) or iOS version 11.2 or later (for iPhone 7 and 7 Plus) before December 21, 2017, and (ii) they experienced diminished performance on that device after the relevant iOS version was installed or downloaded.
