New diagnostic capabilities
Leading electronics manufacturer Apple has announced the expansion of do-it-yourself diagnostic tools to Europe market. These software tools allow users to complete system configuration after a DIY repair by putting the device into diagnostic mode and following on-screen instructions without having to contact the company directly.
Geographical distribution
Do-it-yourself tools are currently available in 32 European countries, including countries such as Great Britain, France, Germany, the Netherlands and many others.

It's great that Apple is developing a self-service program! This will allow many people to repair their devices themselves and save money. 💰 Of course, this may not be easy for beginners, but there are always instructions.

It’s a pity that Ukraine is not yet included in the list of countries. 😔 But I hope that over time the program will expand, and we will also be able to repair our iPhone, Mac and Studio Display ourselves.

I once tried to disassemble an iPhone for repairs myself - and it didn’t work out. 😂 Modern gadgets are too complex, there are so many small details. It's better to turn to professionals.

Phew, again the apple company screwed something up. 🙄 Why repair old models when you can buy a new iPhone for crazy money? These guys only extract money from people with their updates.

And I think this is a great idea! 👍 Nowadays, many products are difficult to repair due to patented parts. The self-service program will extend the life of gadgets and save resources.

It's great that Apple keeps up with the times and cares about the environment! 🌳 Previously, I often had to throw away equipment due to difficulties with repairs. This way we can use our favorite gadgets longer.

It seems to me that repairing smartphones and computers yourself is a great way to better understand their structure. 💻 I remember when I was taking apart old appliances as a child, it was so exciting!

I have already ordered a set of iPhone repair tools! Last year I changed the battery myself, but to do this I had to watch training videos. And now with the official guides from Apple everything will be much easier. 🤖
