Common questions
How do I know if it's the battery or something else?
On iPhones, go to Settings > Battery > Battery Health. Anything below 80% and Apple considers the battery degraded. On Android, the symptoms are less measurable — bring it in and we'll check it for free during diagnosis.
How long does a battery replacement take?
iPhone batteries typically take 30–60 minutes. Android batteries vary by model — some require heat-softening the adhesive, which adds time. We'll give you a firm estimate when you drop off.
Will my phone think it has a genuine Apple battery after the repair?
On iPhone 12 and later, Apple's software shows a 'non-genuine battery' message when a third-party battery is installed. This is a software notification only and does not affect how the battery works. Some premium batteries can suppress this message — ask us.
Is a swollen battery dangerous?
A visibly swollen battery should be treated with urgency. Stop charging the phone, avoid puncturing or bending the battery, and bring it in for replacement as soon as possible. We won't charge a callout if we determine the battery is the only fault.
