Apple launches at-home iPhone repair program

Since 2001, it has been possible to buy Macs or other devices of the same brand directly in store in the official stores ofApple. Over time, more and more services have been added to the on-site offering, and you can, for example, have an iPhone repaired there if its screen or battery no longer works.

There is also asite e-commercewhich allows any citizen of thirty-six different countries to control their futureWatchor your AirPods online, without leaving your sofa. The advantage is that even if you live in Creuse, you can receive your new connected object at home.

A problem? A solution!

But as I pointed out whenApple has launched its Smart Battery Case replacement program, go to aStoreto resolve a bug or change a part of your phone can be a real pain when you have to travel several hundred kilometers (there are no Apple Stores everywhere). And even when repair is offered, paying for gas can cancel out the effect of the reduction.

In addition, the stores are not open all the time, andthe need is sometimes immediatewhen the computer is your work tool. Right now, for example, in China,all the brands had to draw the curtain because of an epidemic. And it's not for nothing that consumers are willing to pay a high price to obtain immediate services, as with Amazon Prime.

Apple has therefore decided to offer its expertise to us, in return for a fee.additional fees. Please note, however, that these will not be Tim Cook employees but subcontractors. For the moment, only the cities of San Francisco, Los Angeles, New York, Chicago, Houston and Dallas are eligible for this new feature. However, a launch of this magnitude is a sign that this is not just an experiment: we could therefore see home iPhone repair arriving soon inFrance.
