Here are the official Apple links you need to start a mail-in repair for your iPad (AppleCare included):

🔗 Official Apple iPad repair & mail-in service page

👉 iPad Repair and Service (Apple Support) — Start the process to schedule a repair or send your iPad in by mail. You’ll sign in and choose mail-in as an option. 

🔗 General Apple repair portal

👉 Apple Repair & Service (All Devices) — Same Apple system, just starts repair for any Apple device including iPad. 

🔗 Contact Apple Support if you want help or have issues

👉 Contact Apple Support (chat/phone/repair) — Use this to chat with Apple if the online repair request isn’t working or you need help getting the mail-in box. 

🔗 Express Replacement Service (AppleCare benefit)

👉 iPad Express Replacement Service (Apple Support) — If you want Apple to send you a replacement first (then you return the broken one). 

✅ Quick tips

  • You do NOT just mail it yourself — Apple sends a prepaid box/label after you start the repair request online.  
  • If you don’t get the box or label, you can contact Apple Support and they’ll resend it.  

Here’s exactly how to get that iPad fixed—fast, clean, zero stress.

OPTION 1 — MAIL-IN (YES, YOU CAN 🚀)

You do not need to walk into a store.

How it works:

  1. Go to Apple Support
  2. Choose iPad → Repairs & Physical Damage
  3. Sign in with your Apple ID
  4. Pick Mail-in Repair
  5. Apple sends you a prepaid box
  6. Drop it off → they fix it → ship it back

⏱ Typical turnaround: 3–7 business days

💸 Cost: $0–$49 depending on your AppleCare+ plan and damage

OPTION 2 — APPLE STORE DROP-OFF (FASTEST IRL ⚡)

If you want human contact + speed:

  1. Open the Apple Support app
  2. Book a Genius Bar appointment
  3. Bring:
    • iPad
    • Apple ID login
    • (Charger optional)

Sometimes they swap it same day if it’s bad enough.

Instant dopamine.

OPTION 3 — EXPRESS REPLACEMENT (GOD MODE 🧠💥)

If you have AppleCare+ with Theft & Loss or eligible plan:

  • Apple ships you a replacement iPad FIRST
  • You send the broken one back after

⚠️ Temporary credit-card hold required

🔥 Fastest possible solution

WHAT TO DO RIGHT NOW (NO THINKING)

👉 Open Apple Support app

👉 Tap iPad → Repairs → Mail-in or Store

👉 Done

If you want, tell me:

  • iPad model
  • Screen cracked or body bent?
  • AppleCare+ or standard AppleCare?

I’ll tell you which option dominates for your exact case 🦾📱
