Frequently Asked Questions
Is AppleCare+ worth it?
It depends on the device and your usage. For expensive devices like iPhone Pro Max or MacBook Pro, a single screen repair without AppleCare+ can cost more than the plan itself, making it a worthwhile investment.
Can I buy AppleCare+ after purchasing my device?
Yes, you can purchase AppleCare+ within 60 days of your device purchase. After that window, you'll need to have Apple run a diagnostic on the device.
Does AppleCare+ cover lost or stolen devices?
Standard AppleCare+ does not cover theft or loss. However, Apple offers an "AppleCare+ with Theft and Loss" upgrade for iPhones at an additional cost.
Are the prices on this tool accurate?
