Switching devices should not mean losing photos, contacts, messages or the apps you rely on. We move everything from your old phone or tablet to the new one and get it set up while you wait. Bring both devices and have your account passwords handy, and we will take care of the rest.

My daughter’s IPad had a broken charger port. They fixed it within two hours and I was on my way. I would recommend this store for repairs as I’m completely satisfied with the result.

They always get me right and are super fast and efficient. Best prices in Columbus. Literally. Have gotten my screen repaired here multiple times and just got my Xbox a new hdmi port/cleaning. Absolutely perfect!
Photos, videos, contacts, messages, apps and settings, as long as they are on the old device or in a backup. Bring both devices and be ready to type your own account passwords: we never need to keep them.
Can you transfer my data if the old phone is broken?
Sometimes. If the phone still powers on, or its board can be repaired, we can often copy your data over to the new one. After the diagnostic we tell you what is realistic, and we cannot promise it with liquid or board damage.
How long does Phone Setup & Data Transfer take?
Typically about 45 min. Many repairs are finished the same day, depending on the issue and on whether we have the part. We give you an estimate when we quote.
What warranty comes with Phone Setup & Data Transfer?
This repair carries a 30-day warranty on the installed part and the labor. It does not cover new impacts, drops or liquid contact after the repair. If the same fault comes back within that time, we look at it again at no charge.
How much does Phone Setup & Data Transfer cost?
It depends on your device and model. The diagnostic is free and you get an upfront quote before any work begins. If you decide not to go ahead, you pay nothing.
Do I need an appointment?
No. Walk-ins are welcome during business hours. Booking online or calling ahead is optional, but it helps if your model is uncommon and you'd like us to confirm the part first.
Most common phone repairs, like screen replacement, battery replacement, and charging port repair, are often finished the same day, depending on the issue and part availability.
Repairing an iPhone is usually worth it when the phone still gets iOS updates and the repair costs well under half the price of a comparable replacement.
Local phone repair shops in Columbus often provide faster turnaround, more personal service, and clearer pricing than big-box chains, which can involve longer wait times and mail-in processing.
