Californians may soon have more options to fix their broken or damaged iPhones and other electronic devices after the so-called “Right to Repair” bill cleared the state legislature.
. In a statement to NBC 7, Apple said they support consumers' right to accessible repairs.
"Apple supports California’s Right to Repair Act so all Californians have even greater access to repairs while also protecting their safety, security, and privacy. We create our products to last and, if they ever need to be repaired, Apple customers have a growing range of safe, high-quality repair options,” Apple said.
Environmental advocates hope the right to repair will give consumers another option besides throwing away their irreparable products. But some say the right-to-repair movement may not reduce waste or save consumers money the way it's intended.
Californians will likely get the chance to see the bill's effects play out. The bipartisan bill passed the state Senate with no dissenting votes and the state Assembly with just one nay vote from Northern California Assemblymember Heath Flora.
