I have apple care+ for my iPhone 13 and I have some scratches on the screen. Some of them are pretty deep but I don’t think any of the would be considered cracks. Does apple care+ cover screen repair for scratches like this? And if so is there an extra charge to getting it fixed?
iPhone 13, iOS 15
If the scratches are deep enough….fine, drop the screen on the ground…screen now cracked = covered by AppleCare+………..its just so silly.

Hello,
AppleCare+ for iPhone does not protect against normal wear and tear or cosmetic damage that does not affect the functionality of the iPhone, including scratches.
However, it does provide unlimited incidents of accidental damage protection from unexpected and unintentional events such as drops, spills, or cracked screens.
You can get the latest information about AppleCare+ for iPhone here: AppleCare Products - iPhone - Apple
Note that each incident is subject to a service fee or excess fee. The resource linked above provides an overview of those fees.
Take care!
I can tell you for sure that Care + does NOT cover scratches. I have similar scratches with yours, it is pretty noticeable. I contacted and get appointment with them. I went to store with that, they checked my iPhone and the staff told me for sure, that it is just scratches and they won’t cover it. The staff even showed me her iPhone which the scratches is much worse than mine, but still they don’t cover that. SAD.
Apple Care+ covers 2 incidents of accidental damage every 12 months for a reduced fee. There is no specification of how bad the damage must be.
You can take the iPhone in to an Apple Store for a screen replacement for the Apple Care+ reduced price if you want to.
Should be fine but you'll have to pay what's essentially a deductible.
Does Apple Care+ Cover Screen Scratches?
