“Apple Store” app that makes it easy to connect in new product reservation competition

At the start of accepting reservations for new Apple products such as the new iPhone, the server will be crowded, so it will be difficult to connect to the official Apple website. The first shipment in time for the release date may not be more than ten minutes from the start of reservation, and the estimated delivery date may be one to two weeks after the release date by about 30 minutes from the start. I have.
 
You may end up accepting the first shipment while opening the Apple official website from your computer or smartphone browser, going to the page of the new product you want, selecting the color and storage capacity, and so on.
 
The “Apple Store” app is said to be easier to connect to than a browser in such “new product reservation competition”. It’s an app that allows you to easily purchase Apple products and is available for free. If you haven’t installed it yet, install it in advance.
 

The fastest way to book a new product

The fastest reservation for the new iPhone is not OK once you have installed the Apple Store app. The most important point is to “favorite” the product you want to purchase before the order acceptance starts.
 
If you register the product you want to purchase as a favorite before starting the reservation, you can display the product purchase screen with one tap from the favorite list screen.
 

Easy step 5 steps about 3 minutes

• STEP1

  Launch the “Apple Store” app

• STEP2

  Tap “For You”

• STEP3

  Tap the purchased product from “Favorites”

• STEP4

  “Add to bag”

• STEP5

  Make a purchase procedure

 

How to bookmark with the “Apple Store” app

First, launch the “Apple Store” app.
 
Select your iPhone from “View by Product” on the “Shopping” tab, or select “Make iPhone Pre-orders Smoother” as shown in the image.

 

First, select either iPhone13 (iPhone13 mini and iPhone13) or iPhone13 Pro (iPhone13 Pro and iPhone13 Pro Max)

 

After selecting the model you want, decide “body color”, “storage capacity”, “whether or not there is a trade-in”, “payment method for purchase price”, “subscribe to AppleCare +, or if you subscribe, type”.

 

We have decided the pre-order details for iPhone 13 Pro, which will start accepting pre-orders from September 17th (Friday) tomorrow.
 
I selected all the items such as body color, storage capacity, trade-in, etc., but only “Prepare for pre-order” is displayed, there is no “Add to bag” button

 

Register as a “favorite” here. When you tap the heart symbol on the upper right of the screen, the white heart becomes a blue heart, indicating that you have registered it as a favorite.
 
This completes favorite registration.

 

How to view favorites registered in the “Apple Store” app

You can check the registered favorites from the “For You” tab. Tap For You, tap “See All” from “Your Favorites”, and then select “Show Details”.
 
You can register multiple combinations in Favorites.If you are uncertain about the storage capacity or body color, register multiple combinations as shown in the image.

 

“Continue” is displayed, so let’s tap it

 

Simply tap the product you have added to your favorites and the “Prepare for pre-order” screen will be displayed.

 

How different is the normal operation from the operation from your favorites?

Before the release of iPhone 12, I compared the normal operation and the operation time from favorites using the Apple Store app on the iPhone, using the products that can be ordered now as an example. Depending on the terminal used and the Internet connection status, it seems that the purchase operation from favorites can shift to the order procedure a few seconds earlier.
 

 
I also tried ordering from a browser on a Mac this time. You can add it to your Favorites just like the Apple Store app, but the page loads extremely slowly before the pre-order start time.
 
In the case of the author, even when the pre-order start time was reached, it remained “Maintenance in progress” and I had to wait for 10 minutes or more until the order screen was displayed.
 

 
The Apple Store and major domestic carriers (SoftBank, NTT DoCoMo, au) will start accepting reservations for the iPhone 13 series and iPhone 13 Pro series from 9 pm on September 17, 2021 (Friday). Be prepared and win the reservation competition!
