14 DAY TRIAL // Repairing an iPhone isn’t cheap, let’s be honest about it, and servicing on a device without a warranty is going to cost more than you’d imagine.
Nobody likes bad news, and a screen replacement that costs several hundred dollars certainly falls under this category.
Apple has updated the Apple Support app with a new feature that tells users how much it’s going to cost to repair certain problems of the iPhone.
In other words, when you look for servicing within the app, Apple Support can not only figure out where you can send the device for the repairs, but it can also tell you how much the whole thing is going to cost. The app works as straightforwardly as possible, so after choosing from a list of common problems, you should be able to get a price quote as well.
Just don’t take anything for granted
Of course, don’t expect this information to always be 100 percent accurate.
This is because, first and more, we’re not technicians, so in some cases, we may not accurately determine the problem that needs to be resolved. In the case of a broken display, for example, the whole thing might be pretty simple, but if there’s any damage behind the screen, the price quote would no longer be accurate.
The latest version of the Apple Support app also includes additional enhancements, including an option to let users describe the problem in their own words. This way, the technician reading your message should be able to determine what’s happening more accurately and then suggest the appropriate action.
And last but not least, the update to app version 4.5 also includes support for Ukraine, with the app also available in the country. Last but not least, the new version ships with a series of performance enhancements and bug fixes too.
