Users in these countries will be allowed by Apple to repair their own iPhones and Macs.
Apple’s self-service repair program is now available in 24 more countries, including Croatia, Denmark, Greece and Switzerland. In addition, the program expands to include the latest iPhone 15 collection and M2-powered Macs, such as the 15-inch MacBook Air, 14-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pro, Mac Pro and Mac Studio. Cumulatively, this means that Apple Self-Service Repair is now available in 33 countries, supports 35 products and is available in 24 languages.
Apple’s self-service repair program was launched in April 2022. It allows people with experience in repairing electronic devices to access Apple repair manuals, genuine Apple parts and tools to repair Apple products. These tools are the same as those used by Apple authorized service providers and Apple Stores.
This initiative is Apple’s way of giving users more control over how they use and maintain their devices—eliminating the need to visit an Apple store.
In addition to expanding to more countries and more devices, the program also includes Apple Diagnostics for self-repair. This allows people to diagnose and troubleshoot Apple devices for optimal performance – identifying which part of the device may need repair or replacement.
However, users are not recommended to do repairs themselves if they do not have experience in repairing electronics. In this case, Apple notes that “visiting a professional Apple-authorized service provider with certified technicians using genuine Apple parts—designed and tested to internationally recognized standards—is the safest and most reliable way to get a repair.”
