Question for those from a couple of weeks ago. This time around, I intend to have my phone sent to the UPS CC closest to me for logistical reasons. Theoretically if everything goes according to plan, I should be able to pick it up the morning of the day that the UPS driver would have delivered it, correct? Also, if I have it sent to the UPS CC, I should still have visibility on it the whole way using MyChoice, correct? TIA for everyone’s help on this thread 😁
You’ll have same visibility, just look into your CC hours of operation. I went at 8am to find out that they are now only open from 4pm to 6pm 😡😡

Ahhhhh....thanks for the heads up! I will definitely give them a call next week to ensure they will be open at their normal times.
 
I plan on ordering the 12 Pro Max from Verizon. Is there any expectation that there will be a long delay to receive the phone?
 
Preapproved for both the Blue and Graphite. Really leaning toward graphite. Hopefully preapproving both don’t screw anything up tomorrow morning.

If you are ordering from Verizon, there’s a different thread, but I just happened on my Verizon app and you can start your order for the Pro Max now. You’ll get in line to check out and will be in a Waiting Room to check out until the pre-order time is official.

Yes, pre-order and Apple store.

Apple store pickup depends on what inventory they receive so it pays to check for the phone availability (color, carrier, storage) at each Apple store location nearest you.

They have a 15 minute window for appointments.

I got lucky with a high in demand iPhone during launch day so I returned the online phone when it finally arrived 3 weeks later.

Quite angry at Apple for not making online pre-orders a priority because they paid in advance of launch day...
Thanks for clarifying. I did the same with the Watch S6 -- didn't order at preorder, but sat back and waited until launch day and picked up the exact Watch I wanted. I've done that twice with the Watch actually.

iPhones have always been a different story. I'm going to work on a preorder and just hope the shipping is quick. I'll use the iPhone app so I can rifle through using three years' worth of gift cards and a giant Apple ID credit to pay for all of it. I've been practicing my speed getting through my favorited iPhone...LOL

Yeah. Ordering the same iPhone!
Tracking is half the fun, right?

Then following it on its journey.
These forums are a respite, to me, From other things in the world.
Here, people are friendly and just can bond over the love of tech and a device.
Wish the rest of the world worked that way sometimes.
but having said that.......
T-11 hours, 6 minutes til I go for the gold!
 
Does anyone know if you keep the Apple Store app open it auto refreshes when the store becomes available? I typically swipe up to close it and open it until I see the store.
