How long does AppleCare coverage last?

Asked 2 years ago
AppleCare coverage generally lasts for either one or two years, depending on the specific plan purchased. For many devices, like the iPhone or iPad, the standard AppleCare plan provides coverage for one year from the date of purchase. However, there is an option to extend this coverage through AppleCare+. This extended plan can add up to two additional years of service, bringing the total coverage duration to three years for certain products. It is important to note that AppleCare+ may also include features like accidental damage coverage and additional technical support. Customers should consult the specific details relevant to their product on Apple's official website for precise information, as coverage terms may vary by device and region.
