Right to repair: all the latest news and updates
Apple’s self-service repair program, designed to allow customers to repair their own iPhones and MacBooks, is launched in Europe. The company announced today that genuine Apple parts, tools and manuals will be available for customers in Belgium, France, Germany, Italy, Poland, Spain, Sweden and the UK to perform their own repairs.
Spare parts are available via Apple’s self-service repair store, which has a drop-down menu at the top right to select the correct country. As for the service launching in the US earlier this yearcustomers will be able to rent tools to complete repairs rather than having to purchase them outright, and receive discounts by sending their replaced parts to Apple for refurbishment or recycling.
