AppleCare for the Apple TV just got even better.
What you need to know
- Apple has extended AppleCare coverage for the Apple TV.
- The plan now covers the device for three years instead of two.
If you have AppleCare for the Apple TV, you just got some extra coverage.
As reported by MacRumors, Apple has extended existing AppleCare plans for the Apple TV to three years of coverage. The company announced the change in an email to customers who currently had the protection plan for their Apple TV.
Apple today emailed customers who have purchased a standard AppleCare plan for their Apple TV devices to let them know that coverage has been extended from two years to three years.
Customers who purchased AppleCare for the Apple TV will be now receiving a total of three years of coverage based on the date that they original bought the plan. AppleCare for Apple TV end dates will be automatically adjusted.
The report speculates that Apple extended existing AppleCare plans to match the coverage of its new AppleCare+ plan for the new Apple TV 4K.
In the emails, Apple does not specify why it is extending the Apple TV AppleCare plans, but it is likely because of the transition to AppleCare+ for Apple TV, which Apple made available alongside the launch of the second-generation Apple TV 4K.
Apple announced AppleCare+ for the Apple TV 4K after the company's 'Spring loaded' event in April. Purchasing AppleCare+ for the new Apple TV 4K will extend Apple's warranty coverage to three years as well as add two incidents of accidental damage coverage every 12 months.
Every Apple TV comes with a one-year limited warranty and up to 90 days of complimentary technical support.1 AppleCare+ extends your coverage to three years from your AppleCare+ purchase date and adds up to two incidents of accidental damage protection every 12 months, each subject to a service fee of $15, plus applicable tax.1 In addition, you'll get 24/7 priority access to Apple experts via chat or phone
