Does AppleCare cover water damage to the iPhone?

I want to find out if AppleCare covers water damage?

No, it does not.  If you have AppleCare Plus, you can get a replacement for a small fee.  Otherwise, you will need an out of warranty replacement.

    Does the extended apple care cover water damage to the iphone?

    If you have AppleCare+, Apple will replace the iPhone for the "deductable", which in the US is $49. If you have the standard AppleCare plan, then accidental damage is not covered and you will have to pay Apple's out-of-warranty price for replacement. See:

  • Does applecare  cover water damage for iphone 4s?

    does applecare+  cover water damage for iphone 4s?

    Yes it seems so as the description says for up to 2 "incidents." Each incident is $49. More info here:
    http://store.apple.com/us/product/S4575?mco=MjU5MTk4MjQ
    Im still sorta thinking about it myself. You'd be basically spending $150 for incident #1 and $50 for incident #2, but during the next 2 years only.

  • Does AppleCare+ cover water damage?

    I have AppleCare+ and I was wondering if it covers water damage. And if that is under the "Accidental Damage" and it will only cost $79 if it is water damaged.

    You would have to take it into the Apple Store and have them evaluate the damage to determine if it's eligible for a replacement under AppleCare+. If it is, you're right, the replacement would be $79.

  • Does AppleCare cover accidental damage?

    Does AppleCare include accidental damage?

    Apple's Limited Warranty http://www.apple.com/legal/warranty/ for iPad excludes coverage for damage resulting from accident, disassembly, unauthorized service and unauthorized modifications.
    Out-of-Warranty Service
         If you own an iPad that is ineligible for warranty service but is eligible for Out-of-Warranty (OOW) Service, Apple will replace your iPad with an iPad that is new or equivalent to new in both performance and reliability for the Out-of-Warranty Service fee listed below.    
    iPad model
    Out-of-Warranty Service Fee
    iPad mini
    $219
    iPad 3rd, 4th generation
    $299
    iPad 2, iPad
    $249
    A $6.95 shipping fee will be added if service is arranged through Apple and requires shipping. All fees are in US dollars and are subject to local tax.
    Certain damage is ineligible for out-of-warranty service, including catastrophic damage, such as the device separating into multiple pieces, and inoperability caused by unauthorized modifications. However, an iPad that has failed due to contact with liquid may be eligible for out-of-warranty service. See http://support.apple.com/kb/index?page=servicefaq&geo=United_States&product=ipad

    You may can get the iPad repaired at 3rd party repair sources for less $, however, any remaining Apple warranty will be voided.

  • Does warranty cover water damage

    does warranty cover iphone 5 water damage?

    Costs are:
    iPhone 5s, iPhone 5c, iPhone 5: $269
    iPhone 4s: $199
    iPhone 4, iPhone 3GS, iPhone 3G, Original iPhone: $149
    These are for out-of-warranty replacements and I'm not 100% sure they'll apply in this situation. I believe they will, though.

  • HT1863 Does AppleCare cover screen damage?

    Hi does anyone know if AppleCare covers screen damage?

    ONLY Apple Care Plus covers accidental damage, which is how a broken/cracked screen is defined.
    If you have apple care plus then you can take yours in, pay the service fee (I've seen $49 as the fee) and walk out with a replacement device (may or may not be refurbished). You are allowed 2 instances of accidental damage replacement.
    If you don't have apple care plus then what you get is the out of wrranty replacement, the fee for that starts at 219 for a mini and 299+ for the newer ipads

  • Does warranty cover water damage on iPhone 5?

    I drop my iPhone in a lake still have warranty but I'm wonder if apple would be able to fix it or I have to go truth insurance ?

    Apple is a manufactor, not an insurance or carrier. Apple's one year limited warranty covers hardware, not accidental damage. Look at it like this... say you purchase a new mustang car... you don't purchase insurance and you wreck the car into water... do you expect Ford, the maker of the car, to either fix your car or replace it? No, that would be silly... but people expect Apple to... not you... in general people do expect this and get angry when apple dont cover this. Apple is not insurance... insurance is bought through the carrier and that is where accidental damage is covered.

  • I dropped my phone in water does apple cover water damage?

    Do some places like apple stores do the swap and trade and give you a new device?

    Nobody's warranty covers user damage. Apple will replace your drowned phone with an "out of warranty replacement", but will require money, happily only a fraction of the full retail price.

  • My iphone got wet? does rice work? does the warranty cover water damage?

    i spilled a bit of water on it, and the screen is not responding.

    Power it off and put in a sealed plastic bag with uncooked rice and do not touch for at least 3 days.  There's a very small chance it will work again, but even if it does, it's likely to have new problems develop
    The standard iPhone warranty does not cover water damage, and in fact is completely voided by water exposure.  Unless you purchased AppleCare+ or other hazard insurance, the best you can hope for is an out-of-warranty replacement, price varying with country.

  • Does the apple care  for iphone 3gs cover water damage?

    does the apple care + for iphone 3gs cover water damage?

    No.  Terms of the warranty call that "abuse".
    You can hope, and try:
    Turn it off, leave it off
    Put it in a pile of "dessicant packs" (shipping packs found in hard disk boxes), possibly in a plastic bag (NOT rice -- that has rice-dust which gets into the unit)
    Maybe try turning it on again in about 4-5 days
    But this is really a desperation move, and I would not do it myself (although others say they have tried it).
    Most likely you are paying for either a repair or a new unit.

  • I have a Iphone 4s and a ipad mini. the ipad mini recently got water damage, tried the rice trick...nothing. I have apple care plus on my iPhone, does that work on my ipad too? if so that would be great bc  defintally can't afford a new one ,lol

    Welcome to the boards.
    First, what kind of liquid was it, and was it fully submersed?  For how long?  Do you see water droplets or moisture behind the screen?  How long did you leave it in rice for?  Etc.  More data please.
    And the short answer is no, apple care does not extend from your iPhone to your iPad mini.  Both items require separate Apple Care plans to be covered.  Furthermore, I don't think water damage is covered under Apple Care.  Only manufacturing defects.
    If you bought it on a Credit Card, you may be lucky enough to call them and ask them if they have a replacement program as a benefit for being a card holder.  I believe AMEX has one on their Platinum cards, and worse case scenario, you can always try to file a claim with your home insurance or renters insurance  (check your policy).  Just beware, if you go the Insurance route in filing a claim, you might have your premium go up in the next cycle. 
    It's a double edged sword, I'm sorry.

  • Does it bring any harm or damage to the iphone 4s if let say there is a drop of water drop onto the iphone 4s RECEIVER??

    does it bring any harm or damage to the iphone 4s if let say there is a drop of water drop onto the iphone 4s RECEIVER??

    Water and electronics are a bad combination. I've seen phones get a few drops of water on them and never work right again. Mind you, I've also seen phones (old flip phones) go through both washer and dryer and continue to work for years.
    Does your phone still work? Are you experiencing any problems? If the answer to both of those questions is no, you should be okay.

  • Does the warrantu cover water damage

    Does the care plan cover water damage?

    warrenty covers all issues with a device which was something it had when you bought it or something which was caused by the production of the device
    anything after that like dropping and watering and drilling a big hole in it is not a warrenty thing
    could be an insurance thing though
    these are general warrenty things not just apple ones
