Applecare One allows you to protect three devices under a single subscription

Apple introduced a new level of its Applecare insurance policy called . This allows you to cover up to three of your Apple products in a single plan for $ 20 per month. If you want to add additional devices beyond that, you can do it for an additional $ 6 per month, per product.

Apple presented for the first time in 2011 as a means of ensuring your Against accidental damage, and has since expanded the plan to its entire range of products, adding a coverage for flight and loss. Currently, Applecare + costs $ 10 per month to ensure an individual iPhone, with subscription prices from $ 3.49 per month for a and $ 5 for a Depending on the model you have. You can also ensure your ,, Case manager, AirPods, Apple TV and Homepod either individually or as part of your new Applecare One plan.

Applecare One presents all the same advantages as Applecare +, including unlimited repairs for accidents such as drops and spills, 24 -hour support from Apple experts, maintenance and coverage of batteries. The protection against theft and losses which was previously exclusive to iPhone plans now also covers the iPad and Apple Watch if they are included in your Applecare One plan. You can make up to three complaints per year for theft or loss of an iPhone, an iPad or an Apple watch.

The monthly price of $ 20 is set, whatever the products you include (like the $ 6 you pay to add an additional device), which means that the amount you save will depend on what they would cost to ensure individually, so it is worth examining it before removing the new plan. Apple says that people who cover their iPhone, iPad and Apple Watch could save up to $ 11 per month on Applecare one compared to what they would pay if each device was provided under Applecare +.

Again with Applecare One is the possibility of adding devices that you already have to a protective plan. Previously, you should decide within 60 days of buying an Apple device.

You may need to run a diagnostic verification on the device itself or in an Apple store to have it approved.

Applecare One also simplifies the transaction process. If you exchange a product covered by your plan directly on Apple, it is automatically removed and replaced by the new device. Unlike Applecare +, however, there does not seem to be a way to pay each year for your plan. Instead, it runs monthly as long as you need, and Apple will allow you to move the products inside and when you wish.

Applecare One launches tomorrow in the United States and can be activated either on your iPhone, Mac or iPad, or in an Apple Store.
