Overview

• According to iGeneration via MacRumors, Apple is preparing to conduct in-store iPad repairs for the first time.
• Roughly 30 Apple Stores, primarily in the United States, are expected to handle on-site iPad fixes by the end of 2025.
• The new process would replace today’s practice of offering full-device replacements and outsourcing hardware fixes to third-party centers.
• Exact cost estimates for iPad repairs will be introduced in September, mirroring Apple’s existing policy for iPhone and Mac services.
• Apple has not formally confirmed the pilot, which runs alongside its officially expanded Self Service Repair program for iPads.
