Apple Settles $25 Million Lawsuit Over Misleading Family Sharing Advertising

Eligible users who purchased a non-Apple app subscription while enrolled in a Family Sharing group between 2015 and 2019 can claim compensation.

Apple has agreed to settle a class action lawsuit for $25 million over misleading advertising related to its Family Sharing feature.
Users who were enrolled in a Family Sharing group with at least one other person between June 21, 2015 and Jan. 30, 2019, and purchased a subscription to a non-Apple app, are eligible for compensation.
The lawsuit claimed that Apple misrepresented the ability to share app subscriptions with family members, as third-party developers could opt out of this feature.
Eligible claimants are entitled to at least $30, but the final amount may vary based on the total number of people who file a claim.
Claims can be filed online or by mail, and the deadline is March 1, 2024.
