The company agreed to a preliminary settlement earlier this year for $500 million from a lawsuit in 2017 after Apple admitted it used software updates to deliberately slow down phones.

The iPhone 6, 6s and 6s plus (iOS 10.2.1 or later), iPhone SE (iOS 10.2.1 or later) and iPhone 7 and 7 Plus (iOS 11.2 or later) are covered in the settlement, but only if you owned the phone before Dec. 21, 2017.
