Services, Maintenance & Software Upgrades

Every year Apple releases a major software upgrade for all its products, as well as smaller ones throughout the year. It is a very good idea to stay up to date for syncing and security purposes. Appletech can efficiently and safely perform these updates, as well as servicing, malware checks and threat removal. Many people attempt to do the major upgrades themselves and end up in a mess. We take a holistic approach and can service both software and hardware in-house. We perform system health and battery checks and deep clean both hardware and software to keep the devices working in optimal condition.

iCloud & Apple ID

Appletech can set up the iCloud and Apple accounts, make changes to them and reset passwords. Appletech can also resolve issues where people are sharing accounts and as a result contacts, photos, phone calls, and messages are being mixed up. As the need for more secure security measures is increasing due to hacking, ransomware, and malware, people are having trouble remembering more elaborate passwords, as well as understanding things like two-factor authentication. Appletech can handle these things on your behalf.

Audiovisual Integration

Appletech can supply and set up various AV systems which integrate nicely into the Apple ecosystem, such as wireless doorbells with cameras that call your phone anywhere in the world when a visitor rings the bell. Apple TV systems that integrate with surround sound systems, so that music and movies can be wirelessly sent to your TV and sound system from any Apple device. The Apple TV and sound system combination is a great way to create a home cinema experience with just a few clicks of the Apple remote.
