Apple plans to add a new feature to iPhone devices with the aim of informing users whether the device was previously repaired and whether spare parts were used.
And with the new version of iOS 15.2, due out next year, a new Parts and Maintenance history section will appear in Settings (Settings > General > About) providing some reassurance to buyers of used or refurbished iPhones hoping to get a trusted, serviced device Using parts from original equipment manufacturers.
The new update includes a previous feature that can tell if the screen or battery is not original or not, and now it is added in one place and even includes the date when the service was performed.
Since the release of the “iPhone 11” device, “Apple” began to include a warning when installing an aftermarket (non-original) screen, and now, older “iPhone” devices, such as the “XR” models, can warn if the battery is not original, while the “iPhone 12” and “iPhone 13” models recall more including cameras.
Critics believe that the technology giant Apple wants, through this feature, to direct its customers to use its official original parts, noting that this feature may also help to discover stores that mislead about the quality of their alternatives.
It is worth noting that buying and selling used iPhones is a huge market all over the world, but it can be worrying not to know whether the device will contain a low-quality battery that may overheat, or whether the screen you will get will have a color Stable and accurate as the original monitors that companies sell.
This may happen if the maintenance is performed by a third party shop that is not in the company’s independent repair program “IRP”.
And with Apple’s self-repair service announced earlier, customers will have a way to obtain original parts and repair iPhone devices at home or through someone who has the experience and technical competence to help him repair the phone, since it is a service supported by “Apple” .
