Crack Your Phone? This Service Can Help

Even though iPhones have come a long way, many of us are still all too aware of the inevitable clumsiness of dropping our phones, however that inevitable clumsiness sometimes reaches a point of no return when we not only hear the dropping of our precious device, but see (and feel!) the cracks it has obtained. But, don’t fear because there’s a brand new service dedicated to the repair of not only cracked iPhones, but all phones in general, called iCracked.

Seventeen reports that the service was created by AJ Forsythe and Anthony Martin in 2010 during their undergraduate years at California Polytechnic State University. Tired of having to go to the repair shop every time he cracked his phone, Forsythe decided to buy the equipment and learn to fix the phone on his own. The iCracked team consists not only of just Forsythe and Martin, but a whole slew of workers called iTechs, who venture out to fix phone problems, from water damage to faulty batteries. But, if you believe that your phone is beyond salvaging, iCracked allows you to sell your phone (no matter its condition) for money!

So, the next time your phone has an accident, remember iCracked is only a call (or click) away! But, you may want to use a different phone.
