The timeline, step by step
| Step | Typical time |
|---|---|
| Arrival, quick diagnosis and confirming the quote | 5–10 min |
| Opening the phone, transferring parts, fitting the new screen | 20–40 min |
| Testing touch, display, Face ID, cameras and charging | 5–10 min |
What can make it take longer
- Extra damage — a bent frame or shattered back glass needs more care.
- A swollen battery — it pushes the screen up and must be handled safely, sometimes replaced at the same time.
- Liquid damage — corrosion under the screen can complicate things.
- Uncommon or brand-new models — parts may need to be sourced, so call ahead.
Mobile repair vs. shop vs. mail-in
A shop repair might take the same 30–60 minutes on the bench, but you also spend time driving, parking and waiting — and sometimes you're told to come back later. Mail-in repairs can take days. With a mobile technician the repair happens at your kitchen table, office or car while you get on with your day.
Four ways to make your repair faster
- Know your model (Settings › General › About) so the right part comes with the technician.
- Back up if the phone still works — see how to back up your iPhone.
- Have your passcode handy so the technician can test everything with you.
- Clear a flat, well-lit spot — a table works perfectly.
