Feeling adventurous to fix and crack open your iPhone on your own? Either replacing the battery or the screen or fix some other internal issues, such as broken speaker or camera?
Good thing is since 2022 – thanks to rights-to-repair groups pushing and movement, Apple has finally gave in to let the owner to do self-service repair by releasing official self-service repair guides for its iPhone.
Unfortunately, Apple has only shared a few models so far and they (the self-service guides) are made newer models only. Well, at least it’s a good start.
Here are list of iPhone official Repair Manual that can be found on Apple website.
These are the compilation of iPhone repair manuals found on Apple website. What strange is, as of when this article is written – March 2023, which is half year after iPhone 14 has been released and sold, I still unable to find iPhone 14 repair guides on the Apple website. Anyway, do find iPhone 13 series, iPhone 12 series as well as iPhone SE 3rd Gen official self-service repair guidelines below.

Bring it all together
Hopefully Apple will remain committed to let its own users – us, the iPhone owners – to do self-service repair on their own iPhone by providing guides for more iPhone models – not only newer models but also older models, because while there are people who keep replacing their iPhone after 2 years, but there are also people who are still holding into their iPhone after 2 years (like myself), and these iPhone are actually the ones needed the repair guide more, since some components on the iPhone after 2 years started aging – such as the battery that require changing.
