"In its filing, Apple argues the lawsuit should be thrown out because it rests on "complaints about the timing" of just two Siri-related features: Siri Personal Context Awareness and Siri In-App Actions. The company emphasizes that the features were delayed to "meet Apple's high quality standards" and that the delay of two features cannot support the "sweeping claims" made in the lawsuit."
"Apple also wants credit for the Apple Intelligence features that have shipped. It points to more than 20 features that have rolled out since last fall, including Writing Tools, Smart Replies, Genmoji, and Image Playground. Apple calls those updates "groundbreaking and transformative," arguing they show steady delivery on what was promised. Finally, Apple's rebuttal says it made it clear Apple Intelligence features would be "delivered over time and continue to involve" as the phased rollout progressed."
In March, Apple delayed the launch of its more personalized Siri first teased at WWDC 2024. Two weeks later consumers filed a class-action lawsuit alleging false advertising of unreleased Apple Intelligence features. Apple filed a motion to dismiss, arguing the complaint rests on timing concerns about two Siri features, Siri Personal Context Awareness and Siri In-App Actions, which were delayed to meet Apple's quality standards. Apple states plaintiffs do not allege iPhone 16 models are defective, continue using their devices, and will receive remaining features at no additional cost via software updates next year. Apple highlights more than 20 Apple Intelligence features already shipped and requests full dismissal to avoid discovery and trial.
