Apple is launching a new program that will make it easier for its customers to get their iPhones fixed by expanding the number of businesses that can repair them.
The initiative will give iPhone owners added options to fix some of the most common out-of-warranty iPhone issues, by providing more repair businesses with genuine Apple parts, tools, training, repair manuals and diagnostics, according to a release put out Thursday. These materials will be the same as what Apple's authorized service providers now receive, and at the same cost.
The move should ease some of the burden on Apple stores as people hang onto their phones longer, which then need more repairs.Apple also is facing increased pressure from state governments pushing"Right to Repair" legislation, which would require manufacturers to let consumers fix their devices as they choose and force those companies to sell their materials to independent repair businesses.
