Apple launches AppleCare One, a flexible multi-device protection plan with expanded coverage

Apple is expanding its device protection services with a new subscription option called AppleCare One, designed to simplify coverage for customers who own multiple products.

Starting at 19.99 dollars per month, the plan allows up to three Apple devices to be protected under a single subscription, with additional products added for 5.99 dollars each. The unified model is aimed at making it easier for users to manage their AppleCare benefits without juggling separate plans for each device.

Subscribers can move devices in and out of their plan as needed, making it flexible for those who frequently upgrade or rotate their products. Unlike the traditional AppleCare+ window, AppleCare One also lets users enroll devices up to four years old as long as they are in good working condition. When a covered device is traded in for a new one, Apple automatically updates the plan to include the replacement, eliminating the need for manual adjustments.

Along with the standard perks of AppleCare+, such as unlimited accidental damage repairs, battery service, and priority support, AppleCare One introduces expanded theft and loss coverage that now includes the iPad and Apple Watch. Previously, this level of protection was exclusive to iPhone owners. Apple claims that customers who combine an iPhone, iPad, and Apple Watch under AppleCare One could save roughly 11 dollars per month compared to maintaining separate AppleCare+ plans for each product.

The service will be available to customers in the United States beginning tomorrow through the Apple Store app, on Apple’s website, or by visiting any Apple retail location. The move highlights Apple’s strategy to bundle services in ways that encourage customer loyalty while reducing the hassle of managing multiple support plans.
