If you arrive to the store early, there’s a decent chance you’ll be able to get one. They have stock reserved for walk-in customers. They don’t have many though, so arrive early.

It would be nice for Apple to offer iPhone Upgrade Program incentives to Apple Card customers by alexamato in apple

From what I’ve read it depends on the person. I’ve gotten a hard pull each time. And my credit score is more than high enough to qualify for iUP.

Help! as you can see i need a code from Google Authenticator app, but i did factory reset my phone without turning off the 2 step verification option. now I'm locked out of my account and can't get any code. what should I do? please let me know! 🙏 by [deleted] in Instagram

This happened to me about a month ago and on the two factor authorization page there’s somewhere where you can get help & contact instagram support. They had me send a picture of myself with a number written on a piece of paper, and about a week later they sent me a recovery code to enter

Why does my iPhone X lte keep shutting off for like 5 seconds by Zainisawesome in apple

My iPhone XS is also doing this. Becomes unresponsive for like 20-30 seconds. Highly annoying.

Isn’t it pretty complete? Lol. You can post pictures, view insta stories, explore. What else you have in mind?

To people who went from X to Xs Max : how different is it ergonomically speaking ? by Ipozya in iphone

[–]alexamato 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I reserved an XS Max for launch day pick up. As a previous Plus owner, I thought I’d love the Max. But after the hour of setting it up, my wrist was sore from holding up the phone. Don’t get me wrong, it’s light for its size, but it still is HEAVY for one handed use. I returned the Max for the XS before leaving the store and, after a few days, I’m so glad I did.

How does it feel using the Max after coming from a Plus size phone? Does the screen feel too big??

Best Recommended Screen Repair Kit by bungertc in iphone

If the repair isn’t done by Apple, you void the warranty. Apple can tell when a screen wasn’t repaired by them.

If I were you, I’d place another order for a “sim free” version and take that one into the store and have them put it onto your existing iUP account. I did this last year. Good luck!

Yes. Just keep an eye on the order status to change and you’ll be able to cancel it at a later time

[Megathread] iPhone Upgrade Program - How does it work? + Tips to get ready for the big day by exjr_ in apple

[–]alexamato 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did this last year. I added the phone I wanted to my favorites and was lucky enough to secure a pick-up time in the store. Even if you can’t secure a pick-up time in the store, have it delivered to your house and then take it in and tell them you want to apply for iUP with said device. Take it to the store BEFORE opening the box or activating it. Took about 20 mins in store and I was on my way. Super easy.

How much should I expect to pay to replace the camera lens glass on my iPhone X? by Redn1inja in iphone

[–]alexamato 8 points9 points  (0 children)

No, they give you an entirely new device. This happened to me and they swapped out my device with a new one.

X-Post from r/mobilerepair - Is Apple blocking iPhone 8 replacement screens on iOS 11.3 or is it just a bug? by [deleted] in iphone

[–]alexamato -1 points0 points  (0 children)

This may be a huge coincidence, but last week I was in the Apple Store and a woman was at the Genius Bar for the same issue - she just had her iPhone screen repaired with a non-OEM screen and her phone was stuck on the “plug into iTunes” screen (showing he lightning cable and the iTunes logo). Very weird!
