Apple and the US Justice Department are reportedly in early discussions over the potential for an early settlement of a 2024 iPhone antitrust suit brought about by the Biden administration.

While discussions are reportedly underway, it’s unclear whether an agreement will be reached. However, the Trump administration has been working to settle lawsuits brought by the previous administration for some time. It’s clear there is a willingness to do a deal from their side.
Apple is also keen. Bloomberg reports that Apple has already made multiple offers to the Justice Department in 2026 alone. The company previously lost a bid to dismiss the antitrust lawsuit in 2025.
