3 “Please, Book an Appointment”

While certain emergency situations can rule this out, for the most part, you should try your hardest to book an appointment in advance before heading off to your local Apple Store for repairs or service.

“Please listen to me when I say (to book an appointment), we want to take care of everyone,” one Apple Store employee said in a confession on Reddit. But when you show up out of the blue, it can make that process more difficult for everyone involved. Your “quick fix” might actually take up more time than you think — both yours and theirs.
