Bring it in if

FAQ

Common questions

Do I need to back up my phone before a repair?

It is always a good idea. Most repairs do not touch your data, but a backup protects you if anything goes wrong.

What if my phone will not turn on?

Bring it in. Go Mobile offers data recovery and works to recover photos, contacts and files from phones that will not start.

Do I need to give you my passcode?

Have it ready. Your technician may need it to test the phone after the repair, and you will need it to sign back in.

How long does an iCloud backup take?

It depends on how much data you have and your Wi-Fi speed. Keep the phone on Wi-Fi and plugged in until it finishes.
