Nike and Apple have agreed to pay consumers who purchased a Nike+ FuelBand a modest sum to settle a class action lawsuit alleging false claims had been made about the fitness band’s ability to accurately track steps or calories. Neither company admitted any wrongdoing, but offered to pay consumers $15 cash or a $25 gift card to avoid the hassle and expense of an ongoing suit. Those who purchased a Nike+ FuelBand from January 19, 2012, through June 17, 2015, are eligible for the settlement.
