iPhone sent in for repair

Hi everyone,

In the wakes of the pandemic I cracked the phone on my screen. I found the way to get it repaired was to ship it to Apple and they would repair it and send it back. I went to UPS on Monday and they shipped it out. UPS states that it arrived at the warehouse in PA on Tuesday but my Apple repair status still says that it is in transit. Does anyone know if these warehouses are even open during this difficult time and if I can expect my phone to get repaired? I'm just worried that it's going to be sitting there until all of this is over.

Thank you very much!

iPhone XR, iOS 13

Yes I understand that. I haven't been able to get a hold of anybody from Apple to answer my question so I figured I'd reach out here to see if anybody has any recommendations, that's all. I don't expect users to have the answers.

We are neither Apple nor UPS representatives, just average end users like you. With the current craziness the possibilities are many, including reduced staffing by either entity. You'll need to keep after Apple and UPS as we cannot hazard a guess as to when anything happens lately.

Hey, I just sent mine last Monday! About how long did it take you to receive your device back? Did they text you during it’s repair process? So far I’ve gotten nothing except the tracking of it arriving at the facility.

I sent mine on a Monday and they ended up having to replace it but I got the replacement on that Friday! It took until Wednesday/Thursday for it to be processed at the facility though even though it arrived on Tuesday. Hope you get your device back soon!
