Overview
- X Corp and xAI filed the case in the Northern District of Texas, Fort Worth (No. 4:25‑cv‑00914), targeting Apple’s ChatGPT integration and App Store governance.
- The complaint alleges Apple refused Grok’s deep iOS integration, delayed Grok app updates, and depressed visibility for Grok and X through App Store rankings.
- The suit claims ChatGPT’s placement in iOS and Siri grants OpenAI access to potentially billions of iPhone user queries, disadvantaging rival chatbots.
- The plaintiffs seek multi‑billion‑dollar damages and a court order that would bar the Apple–OpenAI collaboration.
- OpenAI called the action consistent with Elon Musk’s pattern of harassment, while Apple has said its App Store is designed to be fair and not favor any developer.
