iPhone owners could receive up to $95 under a proposed $250 million settlement resolving claims that Apple misled customers about Siri's artificial intelligence features, according to a recent court filing.

The class-action lawsuit, filed in federal court in the Northern District of California on behalf of U.S. consumers, claims that Apple deceived customers by marketing "Enhanced Siri features" that did not yet exist, leading them to buy iPhones based on false advertising.

The plaintiffs are seeking a settlement payment of $250 million, according to a recent court filing. If approved by a judge, it could rank among the largest settlements involving Apple.

"Apple has reached a settlement to resolve claims related to the availability of two additional features," an Apple spokesperson said in an email to CBS News. "We resolved this matter to stay focused on doing what we do best, delivering the most innovative products and services to our users."

Here's what to know about the recent settlement.

Am I eligible?
The settlement covers people who purchased an iPhone 16 model, iPhone 15 Pro or iPhone 15 Pro Max between June 10, 2024, and March 29, 2025.

Approximately 37 million iPhone owners are eligible, according to the court filing.

Customers will be notified by either email or mail if they can file a claim. An online social media campaign will also provide information about the settlement website and who is eligible, according to the court filing.

How much money could I get?
Eligible customers will initially receive $25 per device. Depending on how many claims are submitted and other determining factors, the final payment may increase or decrease, but it will not exceed $95 per device, according to the court filing

How do I file a claim?
Claim filing details are not released yet. Clarkson Law Firm, which filed the original lawsuit against Apple, said on its website that a settlement website with more details will be available in "a few weeks."

According to the court filing, the website "will include all necessary information to learn about the settlement" and a number consumers can call with questions.
