On the contrary, the plaintiff believes that IOS 9 has greatly reduced the performance of their iPhone 4S device.

According to the settlement agreement, apple paid $20 million to compensate iPhone 4S owners in New York and New Jersey for poor performance after updating to IOS 9. However, customers who think they are entitled to $15 must submit an affected process statement describing the significant decline in performance after downloading IOS 9 or any version thereof to their iPhone 4S, and are entitled to a payment of $15 per applicable device.
