A class action lawsuit filed against Apple this week in a California federal court accuses the company of false advertising and violating

Apple is embroiled in a class action lawsuit that alleges the company included toxic chemicals known as PFAS in its watch bands.

A new lawsuit has been filed against Apple after a study found that some of its watch bands contain toxic 'forever chemicals.'

Peaslee has previously found PFAS in other consumer products like cosmetics, fast food wrappers, contact lenses, and dental floss, among others. Researchers say chemicals in these products can migrate from the material into humans through “multiple paths of exposure” including “inhalation, ingestion, and dermal absorption.”

Following some recent concerns that smartwatch bands may contain high amounts of harmful “forever chemicals,” Apple has issued a statement confirming that its first-party watch bands are completely safe for users to wear.

Contrary to the stated goal of making you healthier, the watch bands of your wearables could be doing the opposite.

Apple is under legal scrutiny for allegedly selling smartwatch bands containing PFAS, or 'forever chemicals,' which are linked to serious health risks and environmental concerns, according to a new lawsuit filed in California.

A scientific study said fluoroelastomer smartwatch straps "acrossnumerous brands" have unhealthy PFAS compounds. Apple and Google say not to worry.
