Apple does not have a good track record in terms of letting customers repair their hardware. The last decade-plus has seen Apples computers become essentially impossible for users to service or upgrade, and the iPhone has always been a locked box. Adventurous owners might follow guides from iFixit to try and do repairs themselves, but its a dangerous proposition. Remember, it was just earlier this year, when we discovered that replacing the display on an iPhone 13 would disable Face ID (something Apple eventually made an about face on). So Apples announcement earlier this week that it would start selling parts and tools directly to consumers and offer repair guides was a huge surprise, and a move immediately hailed as a victory for right-to-repair activists. One of the most visible opponents to repair access is reversing course, said Nathan Proctor , a senior Right to Repair campaign director at Public Interest Research Groups (PIRG). Apples move shows that what repair advocates have been asking for was always possible. iFixit was similarly pleased, saying that the move is exactly the right thing for Apple to be doing. Both groups caveated their statements by noting a few catches; PIRG says that Apples plans werent as comprehensive as the right-to-repair legislation being discussed in more than two dozen states, while iFixit wants to analyze the legal terms and test the program before it can say just how much credit Apple deserves.
