Does Apple Care cover unintentional water damage?

Im on vacation in Mexico. I was holding my phone in my hand as most do so and earlier that day it had rained. I was walking near the pool to go back to my hotel room when i slipped and landed in the pool with my phone, My legs are all bruised and scratched and i almost needed stitches. I have apple care but will it cover my water damaged phone?

AppleCare does not cover liquid damage which would mean you get a replacement as an out of warranty service for a fee. If you have AppleCare+ then you can use one of your 2 incidents to get a replacement for $49.

    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.
    The best way to find out for certain is to contact Apple Care >  Apple - Support - AppleCare

    Check warranty coverage here >  selfsolve.apple.com
    You will need the serial number >  How to find the serial number of your Apple hardware product

  • 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.

  • HT1349 Will apple care replace my water damaged iPhone 4s

    I have a iPhone 4s with slight water damage and I would like to know if apple care will replace it for the $49.99 deductible. I do have AppleCare

    If you have Applecare plus, then yes.

  • 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.

  • Iphone 4, back side shattered... does apple care cover this?

    So I am wondering if apple care protection would cover the back side of my Iphone 4 being shattered. The screen and front side are fine so the phone is not hindered at all, but I would still like to get the back side of it fixed as I have this phone on contract for another year and a half. Please let me know!!!

    If you previously bought AppleCare+ for it, accidental damage is covered. Regular AppleCare doesn't cover accidents.
