But Apple hasn\u2019t mentioned the program since late last year, and it\u2019s supposed to launch in \u201cearly 2022.\u201d What\u2019s wrong, Apple?

Instead of buying unofficial parts or visiting expensive \u201cauthorized\u201d repair technicians, customers can just buy parts for the iPhone, Mac, iPad, or Apple Watch on the Apple website. Self Service Repair will also provide official repair guides to customers, plus a recycling and reimbursement service for broken parts you return to the company.<\/p>\n<p>When Apple announced Self Service Repair last November, it claimed that the program would launch in early 2022. But Apple\u2019s gone silent. We\u2019re nearly halfway through the year and haven\u2019t heard any new information on Self Service Repair or its expected launch date.<\/p>\n<p>This lack of transparency is frustrating, to say the least. Self Service Repair isn\u2019t just a popular idea; it\u2019s also something that benefits the environment and has an immediate impact on customers\u2019 wallets. Should we wait for this program to launch, or should we just assume that Apple is giving up on the idea?<\/p>\n<p>Hoping for a bit of insight, we spoke\u00a0with iFixit\u00a0CEO Kyle Wiens. He made the following comment, which is both hilarious and correct:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cApple\u2019s parts program is starting to remind us of AirPower.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Yeah, you can\u2019t argue with that! Just like Self Service Repair, the AirPower charging mat generated a ton of excitement when it was revealed by Apple. But the company failed to release the product in a timely manner or explain the delay to customers.<\/p>\n<p>In the end, AirPower was canceled because it didn\u2019t meet Apple\u2019s \u201cquality standards,\u201d which makes sense, as the technology for such a product doesn\u2019t exist yet. But Self Service Repair is extremely straightforward and shouldn\u2019t be difficult for Apple. It\u2019s just a storefront for stuff that Apple already manufactures.<\/p>\n<p>Even if Apple is dealing with supply shortages, which could impact spare parts availability, that\u2019s not an excuse for a lack of transparency. Also, the company could publish the repair manuals that are already available to its technicians.\u00a0(I should note that Apple is\u00a0<em>supposedly<\/em> running Self Service Repair <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.macrumors.com\/2021\/11\/22\/apple-self-service-repair-program-details\/\">through a third party<\/a>, which may be the source of the trouble.)<\/p>\n<h2 role=\"heading\" aria-level=\"2\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"To_Be_Fair_Self_Service_Repair_Isnt_an_Ideal_Solution\"><\/span><a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" name=\"autotoc_anchor_1\">To Be Fair, Self Service Repair Isn\u2019t an Ideal Solution<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<figure style=\"width: 1920px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-100491\" data-pagespeed-lazy-src=\"https:\/\/www.reviewgeek.com\/p\/uploads\/2021\/10\/1e871425.png\" alt=\"The iPad Mini 6 with iFixit's X-ray wallpaper.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1080\" src=\"\/pagespeed_static\/1.JiBnMqyl6S.gif\" onload=\"pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\" onerror=\"this.onerror=null;pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\"><span class=\"imagecredit\"><a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.ifixit.com\/News\/53086\/ipad-mini-6-teardown-wallpapers\">iFixit<\/a><\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>We\u2019d really like to see Apple launch Self Service Repair, as it will dramatically improve the Apple product experience for some users. But here\u2019s the thing; Self Service Repair is hardly the best solution for customers who want to fix their Apple products at home. This program still gives Apple full control over\u00a0<em>every<\/em> part of the repair process\u2014and I\u2019m not just talking about pricing.<\/p>\n<p>Apple likes to use \u201cserialized\u201d parts in its products. An iPhone can tell if you\u2019ve swapped out its Face ID hardware, for example, and it may reject the replacement part in the name of \u201csecurity.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Authorized repair professionals get around this problem using exclusive Apple software. And while customers in Self Service Repair will also gain access to this software, it\u2019ll only work with parts purchased directly from the company.<\/p>\n<p>Customers can\u2019t use this software with donor parts from old or broken phones\u2014in other words; Apple is intentionally stomping out the cheapest and most environmentally friendly path to device repair. Apple claims that this lockdown improves \u201cdevice security,\u201d but I\u2019ve yet to see a good explanation for what that even means. Plus, competitors like Google offer calibration software for free, and they don\u2019t seem to be having any problems!<\/p>\n<p>The solution here, assuming that Apple actually cares about repairability or the environment, is\u00a0quite simple. Apple should relinquish its control over product repairs. That means providing parts, software, and repair guides to customers through easily-accessible outlets instead of a proprietary repair program. You know, the thing that Google, Samsung, Microsoft, and even Valve are doing with iFixit!<\/p>\n<h2 role=\"heading\" aria-level=\"2\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"If_Apple_Really_Cares_It_Should_Team_Up_with_iFixit\"><\/span><a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" name=\"autotoc_anchor_2\">If Apple Really Cares, It Should Team Up with iFixit<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<figure style=\"width: 1920px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-101921\" data-pagespeed-lazy-src=\"https:\/\/www.reviewgeek.com\/p\/uploads\/2021\/10\/78b500b3.png\" alt=\"An open MacBook Pro 14-inch (2021 model) with the iFixit logo.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1080\" src=\"\/pagespeed_static\/1.JiBnMqyl6S.gif\" onload=\"pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\" onerror=\"this.onerror=null;pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\"><span class=\"imagecredit\"><a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.ifixit.com\/News\/54122\/macbook-pro-2021-teardown\">iFixit<\/a><\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Several companies and foundations specialize in product repair.

What\u2019s more, iFixit is bolstering its selection of repair guides to take advantage of these partnerships.

It\u2019s a bit ironic, for several reasons.

Plus, Apple keeps <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/ifixit\/status\/1326264991192764416?\">hiding iFixit products<\/a> in its launch events! If Apple employees respect iFixit, why don\u2019t they just work with the company?<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019m not going to bother speculating on this subject, but I will mention two things that are on my mind. First, Apple likes to have full control over its products. The brand rarely wavers in this regard, even when it comes under scrutiny from critics or lawmakers.<\/p>\n<p>Second, iFixit regularly publishes \u201crepairability scores\u201d for new products. These scores tell you if a device is easy to fix, and despite iFixit\u2019s partnerships with Samsung and Microsoft, it continues to publish unflattering scores for the companies\u2019 products. Apple tends to score very poorly, by the way.<\/p>\n<h2 role=\"heading\" aria-level=\"2\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Clearly_We_Still_Need_Right_to_Repair_Legislation\"><\/span><a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" name=\"autotoc_anchor_3\">Clearly, We Still Need Right to Repair Legislation<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<figure style=\"width: 1920px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-102502\" data-pagespeed-lazy-src=\"https:\/\/www.reviewgeek.com\/p\/uploads\/2021\/11\/0a15afc4.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1080\" src=\"\/pagespeed_static\/1.JiBnMqyl6S.gif\" onload=\"pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\" onerror=\"this.onerror=null;pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\"><span class=\"imagecredit\"><a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.shutterstock.com\/image-photo\/texture-broken-glass-cracks-abstract-cracked-1490784182\">Apple, Freedom Life\/Shutterstock<\/a><\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>From a legal standpoint, you can crack open a phone or laptop without any consequences. But manufacturers, especially smartphone and vehicle makers, have knowingly made product repairs difficult through software design, engineering, warranties, authorized repair programs, and an unavailability of replacement parts.<\/p>\n<p>Right to Repair legislation aims to solve this problem. Such laws <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.howtogeek.com\/339925\/what-are-\">would force manufacturers<\/a> to offer replacement parts, repair documentation, and tools to consumers. Not necessarily for free, mind you\u2014people just want the option to fix their stuff.<\/p>\n<p>Lawmakers worldwide know that Right to Repair is popular, as a recent <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.farm-equipment.com\/articles\/20002-deere-hit-with-class-action-lawsuit-over-right-to-repair\">lawsuit against John Deere<\/a> pushed the idea into the mainstream.

Notably, the Fair Repair Act appears to have bipartisan support.<\/p>\n<p>While it\u2019s nice to see manufacturers dip their toes into repair programs, it\u2019s clear that they won\u2019t take this subject seriously without legal or economic pressure. If we could boycott cars or phones, the latter option could be a great choice. But Right to Repair legislation seems to be the only realistic path toward universal device repairability, which will benefit the environment and consumers\u2019 bank accounts.\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><script async src=\"\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p><script>\nsetTimeout(function(){\n  !function(f,b,e,v,n,t,s)\n  {if(f.fbq)return;n=f.fbq=function(){n.callMethod?\n  n.callMethod.apply(n,arguments):n.queue.push(arguments)};\n  if(!f._fbq)f._fbq=n;n.push=n;n.loaded=!0;n.version='2.0';\n  n.queue=[];t=b.createElement(e);t.async=!0;\n  t.src=v;s=b.getElementsByTagName(e)[0];\n  s.parentNode.insertBefore(t,s)}(window, document,'script',\n  'https:\/\/connect.facebook.net\/en_US\/fbevents.js');\n  fbq('init', '1137093656460433');\n  fbq('track', 'PageView');\n  },3000);\n<\/script><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
