Apple has announced a “self-service repair” programme so “customers who are comfortable” can fix their own devices.
At launch, in early 2022 in the US, it will cover replacing the batteries, screens and cameras of recent iPhones.
But Apple’s new repair store will sell more than 200 parts and tools.
It comes after months of increasing pressure on Apple from the grassroots right-to-repair movement, which wants individuals and independent repair shops to be able to fix electronics.
