How to Check If Your device has AppleCare+

Support Article | University PC Care

AppleCare+ provides extended warranty coverage and accidental damage protection for your Apple device — but it’s not always easy to remember if your device is covered.

Whether you're preparing for a repair or just checking your status, this guide will show you how to verify if your iPhone, iPad, Mac, Apple Watch, or other Apple product has active AppleCare+ coverage.

Method 1: Use Apple's Warranty Checker

Find your device’s serial number
- On iPhone/iPad: Go to Settings > General > About
- On Mac: Click the Apple Menu > About This Mac
- On Apple Watch: Open the Watch app > General > About
- On AirPods: Look on the case or go to Bluetooth settings on your iPhone
Visit Apple’s Coverage Check
Enter the serial number and the captcha code
Click Continue

You'll see your AppleCare+ status, including:

Warranty expiration date
Coverage type (Limited Warranty or AppleCare+)
What’s included (hardware, phone support, accidental damage)

Method 2: Check in Your Apple ID Account

If your device is signed into your Apple ID:

Go to https://appleid.apple.com and sign in
Scroll down to Devices
Click your device to view warranty details

This works for all Apple devices linked to your Apple ID — including AirPods, Apple Watch, and accessories.

Method 3: Use the Apple Support App

Download the Apple Support app from the App Store
Open the app and tap on your device
Tap Device Details
Your AppleCare+ status will be listed under Coverage Information
