Flo Class Action Lawsuit
The lawsuit says the Flo app shared users' period and pregnancy entries with Google, Meta and Flurry from Nov. 2016 to Feb. 2019. Flo, Google and Flurry deny it and settled for $59.5M.
What happens next with the Flo settlement
The claim deadline passed on October 15, 2026. New claims for this settlement are no longer being accepted.
The court held its approval hearing on October 29, 2026. That was the final approval hearing, where a judge decides whether to approve the settlement. Nothing is paid out until that approval is final.
Payments come after approval, and after any appeals. Anyone who objected to the settlement can ask a higher court to look at it again — an appeal — and that has to finish first. Eligible payments are sent once approval is final, and the stretch from a claim deadline to money in hand often runs a year or more. It varies from one settlement to the next.

Flo Class Action Lawsuit
People who logged their period or pregnancy in the Flo app between November 2016 and February 2019 were able to claim money from this settlement. This Flo class action case says the thing you typed into a private health app didn't stay private. The lawsuit alleges Flo Health, Inc. built code from Flurry, Meta (formerly Facebook), and Google into its Period & Ovulation Tracker, and that the app sent your menstruation and pregnancy entries to those companies — without asking you first. Flo, Google, and Flurry deny the allegations, and the court has not decided whether they did anything wrong.
Erica Frasco filed first, on January 29, 2021, and six later cases were combined with hers into one consolidated complaint, filed September 2, 2021, in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California before the Hon. James Donato, case number 3:21-cv-00757-JD. That complaint names eight women, including Erica Frasco, Sarah Wellman, Jennifer Chen, Tesha Gamino, and Autumn Meigs. The Flo lawsuit details rest on those software development kits (SDKs) — third-party code that allegedly fired off your health data every time you entered it. The Flo legal claims name five wrongs: violating California's Confidentiality of Medical Information Act, intruding on your privacy, breaking the privacy protection in California's Constitution, breaching a contract, and violating the California Invasion of Privacy Act. The women are represented by Carol Villegas of Labaton Keller Sucharow, Diana Zinser of Spector Roseman & Kodroff, and Christian Levis of Lowey Dannenberg. The filings are public court records under that case number.
Flo Class Action Settlement - $59,500,000
Three companies are paying to close this out: Google put up $48 million, Flo Health $8 million, and Flurry $3.5 million, for a combined Flo lawsuit settlement amount of $59,500,000. The class is everyone who used the Flo app anywhere in the U.S. and entered menstruation or pregnancy information into it between November 1, 2016, and February 28, 2019 — the class period. Lived in California during that window? That is a separate subclass that is allocated a larger share, and the rest of this page explains why.
Flo settlement eligibility comes down to that one thing: you used the app and logged reproductive health data in the class period. There's no purchase to prove, because the claim is about using the app, not buying it. One detail worth knowing — Meta refused to settle and went to trial instead. On August 1, 2025, a jury returned a verdict for the plaintiffs. That Meta money is handled separately and won't touch claims here. Flo, Google, and Flurry admit no wrongdoing and deny that personal or health information was shared; they agreed to settle to end the case. The fund also covers notice, administration, taxes, service awards, and attorneys' fees before anything reaches claimants. The deadline to claim was October 15, 2026, and new claims can no longer be filed. The court held the final approval hearing on October 29, 2026.

Flo App Class Action Payout: About $60–$63 (estimate)
The settlement administrator, A.B. Data, estimates about $60 to $63 per person, and about $120 to $126 for California subclass members. It is only an estimate, because the money is split pro rata. After fees, expenses, taxes, and service awards come out, the remaining "net" fund is divided among everyone with a valid claim — so the more valid claims, the thinner each share. Here's the math behind the estimate: in an October 22, 2026 court filing, A.B. Data said the net fund would be about $34 million if the court approves the full fee request. It counted 461,766 valid claims after screening out more than 21 million claims it found to be fraudulent, with about 78,000 more still under review. California claims count as two shares, which works out to about $63 a share, or about $60 if more of the claims under review are approved. Claimants didn't need a receipt or any proof. They checked a box and swore under penalty of perjury that they used the app and logged their data in the class period.
The biggest factor in the size of a Flo payment is where the claimant lived. Eligible California subclass members who lived in the state during the class period and verified it are allocated twice the pro rata share of claimants anywhere else, because California's data protection laws provide statutory damages. If a claimant's share works out to less than $1.00, no payment is made. As for the Flo settlement payout date: the court held the final approval hearing on October 29, 2026. Payments to eligible claimants are made once the judge signs the final approval order and any appeals wrap up. One class member objected, and an appeal can add a year or more. Payment notices go out by email or text, with digital options such as PayPal, Venmo, Apple Pay, Amazon, or direct deposit, and the choice of a paper check.

Flo App Class Action Eligibility
People were likely eligible as Flo class action claimants if they used the Flo Period & Ovulation Tracker in the U.S. and entered menstruation or pregnancy information into it any time between November 1, 2016, and February 28, 2019. Because the claim was about using the app rather than buying anything, Flo class action eligibility needed no receipt — just a sworn statement. One thing people miss: anyone who lived in California during the class period was in the subclass allocated twice the share, which is why the form asked claimants to confirm residency.
FAQ
California's data protection laws, including the Confidentiality of Medical Information Act, provide statutory damages, which gives residents' claims more legal value. Eligible claimants who lived in California during the class period and verified it are allocated twice the pro rata share of claimants from other states.
No. There was nothing to buy, so there was no receipt to find. Claimants confirmed under penalty of perjury that they logged menstruation or pregnancy data in the class period. The administrator may reach out if it needs to check something.
Meta wouldn't settle and took the case to trial. On August 1, 2025, a jury returned a verdict for the plaintiffs against Meta. Any Meta money is its own separate process and won't affect what was claimed from Google, Flo, or Flurry. California residents who may be eligible for money from that verdict are to be contacted later.
An SDK is third-party code dropped inside an app. Flo allegedly embedded SDKs from Flurry, Meta, and Google that sent your reproductive health entries straight to those companies the moment you typed them.
It is calculated pro rata. The net fund — what's left after fees, expenses, taxes, and service awards — is split proportionally across everyone who filed. The more people claimed, the smaller each share, which is why no fixed dollar amount is promised.
Class counsel will request up to 32.5% of the fund overall — 20% of the Flurry settlement and 33.3% of the Google and Flo settlements — plus up to $3.6 million in litigation expenses. The court decides what's approved.
The named plaintiffs can ask the court for service awards totaling up to $155,000 across all of them, for the time and effort they put into driving the case.
Leftover funds get redistributed to claimants first, if it's economical. Whatever still remains goes to a court-approved nonprofit. None of it goes back to Google, Flo, or Flurry.
Claims were due October 15, 2026, online by 11:59 p.m. Pacific Time or by mail postmarked that day. The court held its final approval hearing on October 29, 2026. Payments to eligible claimants follow final approval and any appeals.
