If you are giving your iPhone to service, the first thing you will need to do is backup all your important data. This is because the service center professional may perform formatting or a complete reset of the phone, which will lead to all your files, songs, images, and videos getting deleted. Fortunately, you can save all of them on the iCloud service. Or, you can just transfer all the important data to your computer or laptop.

Next, you will need to remove any passcodes and Touch ID before handing over the phone. Otherwise, the service center professional will not be able to enter your phone and perform their work.

It is best to take out your SIM card and back cover and keep them in a safe place in your home. You will also need to unpair your iPhone with other devices like the iWatch. Make sure to disable the ‘Find My iPhone’ feature in the settings. This is required as per the insurance program and the claim process.

Remove the Google Account information and turn off the ‘Factory Reset Protection’ option. The iPhone service will generally be done within three to four days, and in some cases, within seven to eight days. Click here to know more about PC Repair Steyning.
