The partnership will be especially appreciated in places where the closest Apple store is hours away — like Yuma, Ariz; Sioux City, Iowa; and Twin Falls, Idaho — or the line at the Genius Bar is longer than you’d like. Though, in addition to Apple retail stores there are over 1,800 third-party authorized service providers in the US. That’s three times as many locations as three years ago, and according to the company, eight out of 10 Apple customers will be within 20 minutes of an authorized service provider.
