Apple is launching its DIY phone repair service<\/a> in the US today, making spare parts available for the iPhone 12, iPhone 13, and third-generation iPhone SE. When the company announced its \u201cSelf Service Repair\u201d initiative last year<\/a>, Apple said it planned to sell over 200 \u201cindividual parts and tools\u201d to customers. They\u2019re only available in the US for now, but Apple plans to expand the program to other countries as well as additional devices, like Macs equipped with M1 chips, later this year. <\/p>\n

Parts are available through Apple\u2019s Self Service Repair Store<\/a>. Tool rental kits will also be available to rent for seven days at a cost of $49 for customers who don\u2019t want to buy tools outright, the company said in its press release.<\/p>\n

The program marks a significant shift for Apple, which has historically placed limits<\/a> on the availability of genuine replacement parts. While alternative, aftermarket parts are sometimes available, Apple\u2019s devices have occasionally shown ominous warning<\/a> signs<\/a> if they\u2019ve been repaired with non-genuine components. However, with the Self Service Repair initiative, anyone in the US is free to buy a replacement part directly from Apple, safe in the knowledge that it should function exactly as intended. <\/p>\n
