You have no “right” to a darn cent. And if your phone got slow just replace the battery. Here is the history of why Apple slowed down devices that had weak batteries, to prevent the device from shutting down in the middle of something important that you were doing—>https://www.cnet.com/news/apple-is-slowing-down-older-iphones-batteries-faq/


And here is Apple’s direct explanation—>iPhone Battery and Performance - Apple Support

See specifically the section on “Preventing unexpected shutdowns."


If you are referring to the class action suit that has been in the news here is what you need to know:

Apple Slowdown tentative settlement detai… - Apple Community


If you had an iPhone in 2017-2018 you MIGHT be eligible for a payout after the suit is settled, probably in 2-3 years. The court has a list of users who might be eligible; if you are you will be notified at that time.
