Note regarding Apple Independent Repair Provider repairs

Repairs performed through the Apple Independent Repair Provider (IRP) program — including eligible iPhone and MacBook repairs using genuine Apple parts and Apple-certified tools — are governed separately by Apple’s own warranty and repair terms. The Instant Phone Repair Limited Lifetime Warranty described on this page applies to all other repairs and services not covered under the Apple IRP program. If you are unsure which warranty applies to your repair, please ask us at the time of service.

Coverage

What our warranty covers.

Our Limited Lifetime Warranty means that for as long as you own the repaired device, if the specific repair we performed fails due to a defect in parts or workmanship, we will repair or replace it at no additional cost to you.

✓ Covered

Parts Defects

If a part we installed fails due to a manufacturing defect — such as a screen that develops dead pixels, a battery that swells, or a charging port that stops working — we will replace it free of charge.

✓ Covered

Labor & Workmanship

If the same issue we repaired returns as a result of our workmanship — such as a loose connection, an improperly seated component, or an installation error — we will fix it at no cost to you.

✓ Covered

Same Issue Recurring

If the exact issue we diagnosed and repaired comes back and is determined to be caused by our parts or workmanship, it is covered under this warranty for the lifetime of your device ownership.

✓ Covered

All Repair Types

The warranty applies to screen replacements, battery replacements, charging port repairs, back glass repairs, HDMI port repairs, and all other services performed by Instant Phone Repair technicians.
