(US) After 60 days you need to take it in person. The option to buy in the os is gone after 60. If that doesn’t work, If it’s just the back glass I’d just take it to a repair shop personally. You would save some money vs OOW with Apple

Right, and they can still contact apple support via chat or call to add apple care if they are within 1 year in the US. In this case the phone must be functional and connect to either a WiFi network or a cellular plan so they (apple) can run basic diagnostics. This is an option as there are not apple stores in a handful of US states and territories. My best guess is that they do ask the consumer if there is physical damage & it’s up to the consumer to either be truthful or lie. Im sure lying somehow breaks the TOC for applecare+ if apple were to find out.

Yes, but they need to physically inspect it in a store after 60 days. Not a OTA diagnosis. An actual physical inspection to check for any damage.

I tried asking them once, and they acted like they didn’t know what I was talking about. They said it’s only within the 60 days.
