*Screen repair for iPhone models 12 and newer (excluding iPhone SE) refers to the front or back glass. If the claim is for both front and back glass breakage repair, the deductible is $58 ($29 per repair) but will still only count as one claim against the limit. If these are separate claims, each repair has a $29 deductible and each repair counts as one claim against the limit.

1Theft and loss coverage requires you to have Find My iPhone enabled on your device at the time it is lost or stolen. Find My iPhone should remain enabled and your iPhone should remain associated with your Apple ID throughout the theft or loss claim process. During the theft or loss claim process, you will be asked to erase your missing device, disable it, and transfer ownership before you can be issued a replacement device. To ensure that you can sign in and access Find My iPhone, it’s important to remember your Apple ID and password and keep your account information up to date. If you use two-factor authentication for Apple ID, it’s recommended that you add an additional trusted phone number to your account so that you can receive the six-digit verification code required to sign in even if your iPhone is missing.
