SAN FRANCISCO — A federal judge on Monday gave the go-ahead to a proposed class action claiming Apple Inc. impeded the delivery of former iPhone users’ text messages after they switched to non-Apple devices.
The order issued by U.S. District Judge Lucy Koh of the Northern District of California is a partial win for plaintiffs who claim they lost messages because Apple’s messaging app failed to recognize they had changed phones. Koh tossed another chunk of the potential class action, ruling plaintiffs lawyers couldn’t prove Apple misled customers about the glitch in violation of consumer protection laws.
