So, who qualifies?

A lot has happened since Batterygate was the big scandal, so here’s a quick refresher.
Back in late 2016, Apple found itself embroiled in controversy after it was discovered that the company was secretly slowing down some user’s phones. Some iPhones would even shut down well before hitting zero percent battery life.
At the time, the company said iOS was programmed to do this in order to preserve the battery health on some phones. Apple also said some of the issues were do to a battery manufacturer defect. If you’ll recall, throughout 2018, Apple was offering a reduced-price battery replacement programfor users with these iPhone models.
Critics of Apple’s throttling mechanism hit the company for not informing users that this was happening or allowing consumers to control whether they wanted this setting turned on or off. Apple was even hit with fines in countries like Franceand Italyover Batterygate. Dozensof lawsuitswere filedagainst the company over the controversy as well.
Apple previously offeredan apology over the Batterygate issue. However, at least for me, the best apology comes now in the form of actual cash.
