Apple is being sued for introducing a feature in its mobile operating system that uses mobile data when wi-fi coverage is weak.<\/p>\n
Wi-fi Assist first appeared in iOS9 and allows devices to automatically switch between wi-fi and mobile data.<\/p>\n
A class-action lawsuit filed in California alleged that some people had run up large mobile data bills as a result of the feature, which was enabled by default.<\/p>\n
Apple declined to comment.<\/p>\n
