What does Apple Care+ cover for accidental?

I plan on getting the extra coverage, what does it cover? When they say it covers accidental coverage for $79 fee, what damage is covered under that?
Note: I plan on buying the coverage for the iPhone 6

From http://www.apple.com/legal/sales-support/applecare/applecareplusnaen.html:
3.2 Accidental Damage from Handling
If during the Plan Term you submit a valid claim notifying Apple that the Covered Device has failed due to accidental damage from handling (“ADH”), Apple will, subject to the service fee described below, either repair the defect using new or refurbished parts that are equivalent to new in performance and reliability, or (ii) exchange the Covered Device with a replacement product that is new or equivalent to new in performance and reliability (both individually known as a “Service Event”). ADH coverage will expire and all of Apple’s obligations to you under this section 3.2 will be fulfilled in its entirety before the end of the Plan Term when Apple, as a result of ADH claims, has provided to you two (2) Service Events. ADH coverage only applies to an operational or mechanical failure caused by an accident from handling that is the result of an unexpected and unintentional external event (e.g. drops and liquid contact) that arises from your normal daily usage of the Covered Device as intended for such Covered Device. ADH coverage does not include (a) protection against normal wear and tear, theft, misplacement, reckless, abusive, willful or intentional conduct associated with handling and use of the Covered Device, (b) protection against any other act or result not covered by the Plan, as described in Section 4.2 below, or (c) any resultant damage to the Covered Device that arises from one or more conditions described in Section 3.2(a) or (b). Apple may ask you to provide an explanation of where and when the accident occurred with a detailed description of the actual event. Apple will deny your claim if you fail to pay the service fee or fail to provide information relating to the accident when asked.

  • What does Apple Care cover?

    I'm going to be making the switch to Apple and getting a Macbook and I'm curious as to what exactly Apple Care covers. If something happens and it accidentally breaks, will it still be covered even if it was my fault?

    Essentially, AppleCare is just an extension to your standard warranty.
    Your standard warranty comes with:
    1) 90 days of phone support (for setup questions, trouble-shooting, OS X issues, Apple software questions, etc.).
    2) Hardware repairs for manufacturer defects, component failure, etc. (not user caused, and no cosmetic repairs).
    AppleCare simply extends both of these warranties to 3 years maximum coverage (counted from the date of the computer's original sale).
    For more information on AppleCare, you can read here:

    Hope this helps.

  • What does Apple Care cover exactly?

    My iPhone 6 Plus has several nicks along the edges, and so does the screen. Would Apple Care (My first free year) cover this, with a set base price I'm assuming?

    No. Cosmetic damage is not covered.

    nope. Maybe your home owner's insurance. Or cellular providers sometimes offer insurance, you'd have been paying a monthly fee for that.

  • Does Apple Care cover battery replacements?

    My battery has been having problems, like not holding charge as long as it used to and the battery percentage sometimes freezes. I asked about it before and I was told the battery in my Macbook Pro only goes up to 1000 cycles and I'm at 937, so my battery is seeing its end soon.  I've had this macbook since January 2013. I have been reading the Apple Care information and I can't find where exactly it addresses this issue. Does Apple Care cover battery replacements for cycle counts like this?
    PS. I'm learning more that Apple Care doesn't really cover anything. The more I read, the more I feel like I wasted my $250 on it to be honest. I don't see anything Apple Care truly covers unless it's a problem when you first get your laptop that manufacturers did. I'll probably will be moving back to Microsoft after this Macbook goes. Half the price and longer lasting without any protection/insurance.

    Since the battery is beyond one year of use, it's doubtful Apple Care will replace the battery for free.

  • What does Apple mean by "For best battery performance, leave your device connected to a power source until the restore is complete."

    I just recently returned an IPad air and exchanged it for another. I first set up this new one as a new IPad but then deleted all content and settings right away (since I wasn't getting the progress I had made in apps and games) in order to restore it from my previous IPad Air. I then checked after on how to backup via icloud and saw this line under the subtitle of how to restore from a backup, "For best battery performance, leave your device connected to a power source until the restore is complete." What does Apple mean by "for best battery performance"? Im just a bit worried of issues.
    p.s. And yes I did have it connected to the power. And the ios is the default ios for new IPad Airs.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    It only means you should restore whilst it is connected to a power supply, so that your battery doesn't go flat during the process.

  • Does Apple Care cover ALL of the hardware on the Macbook?

    I noticed that the motherboard isn't included.  Debating whether or not it's even worth it to purchase Apple Care for my next Mac.

    The logic board is covered by Applecare. I, too, would not buy a laptop without warranty because they're very tricky for an amateur to fix if they go wrong.
    However, it's worth noting that Applecare is a guarantee against defects, not accidents.  If your MacBook is damaged in an accident then usually Applecare won't fix it.  It's worth checking to see if your household insurance has accidental damage cover.
