How To Fix a Cracked iPhone 6 Screen

The iPhone 6 is not damage-proof and the screen can get scratches or cracks due to a fall or mishandling of the phone. When this happens, there are a few things that you should keep in mind while considering cracked iPhone 6 screen repair, in order to return it to its original condition. These are listed below:

Check the warranty status of your iPhone

You can use Apple’s warranty checker to find out about the warranty period of your iPhone 6. It does not matter if you have crossed your warranty period or if you are within the one year warranty period of your iPhone, Apple does not provide replacement if there has been an accidental damage to the phone, and hence you will have to pay the cracked iPhone 6 screen repair cost. However, if you have purchased AppleCare+ along with your iPhone 6, you can obtain a free replacement of your phone for any kind of damage.

Take a backup of all your data

This is a very important step to do as soon as you transfer files into your phone, because anything can go wrong with your phone at any time, and it is important to ensure that you will not lose your important data. Taking a backup is especially important if you are considering going for an iPhone6 screen repair or replacing your phone. You can do it either by using iTunes or iCloud.

Contact an Apple store

If anything ever goes wrong with your iPhone 6 and you need to get external help to solve it, it is always better to contact an Apple store than to take it to any random person who claims he/she can do it for you. The reason is that if an iPhone 6 screen repair cannot be done, an Apple store will replace the device for you at a reasonable cost while maintaining your warranty period. In case you are out of the warranty period that came with your phone, the Apple store will gave you a 90-day warranty period along with your replacement.

Apple takes no responsibility if you get it serviced somewhere else

If you go to any random non-Apple person to get it fixed and if it gets further spoilt beyond repair, Apple washes its hands off all further problems with your iPhone. If this happens, you can only go back and catch the person who spoilt your phone or buy a totally new one. There are many people who complain that they got their screen replaced by a small repair shop and then the phone just wouldn’t turn on, and the people at the Apple store refused to replace it. Even if there is nothing wrong with the phone after getting it fixed from a repair shop, there are some parts of the iPhone which only an Apple store has, and there is always the chance that you are carrying around your phone with some non-original parts in it. Hence, in the end it is always better to contact an Apple store.
