iBoard Repair did an excellent job recovering all my files--photos, videos, contacts, messages, and more--from my iPhone that had sunk in a river. I appreciated that the pricing was provided upfront with no vague quotes or estimates. Everything was handled quickly and professionally. I highly recommend this place! read more

I woke up with a dead iPhone and Apple store said there was something wrong with the logic board that needed replacement. However, the phone was not backed up (lesson learnt). As with others here, I went and researched other places that recovers data and came to Aaron's place. His prices were very reasonable and transparent. And he said no cost if data was not recovered which was a huge insurance relief. Many other places will charge you even if data recovery was not successful. I choose the rush option and aaron was able to recover the data and return my device within 3-4 days. The entire process was smooth and he ended up repairing the iPhone which now is working and passed all the apple Genius Bar test! He worked miracles and I would recommend anyone who was in similar situation to give aaron a shot. read more

My phone accidentally got dropped into the washing machine. I thought I misplaced it. I ran find-my-iphone. The phone was very close to me, but no matter how much I pinged it, there was no sound. Also, the location kept moving a bit left and right. Then I remembered something. I ran to the laundry room and there it was, violently whirling along with my blanket and sheets. It desperately held on during the first 20 minutes of the wash cycle, its screen lighting up. Then it was no more. Sudden and definite death!!! A week of quarantine in an air-tight container with silica gel could not resuscitate my phone. Put-it-in-rice was all a lie! I was not sad about my phone's demise. But I was sad at the thought of losing all photos aka memories from the last 4-5 years. As they say, pics or it didn't happen. Then my husband sent me a link to iboard repair. The website had a no-nonsense design aesthetic and plain language explanation of service that only an uber-confident business can afford to display. So off my phone went to Aaron, the mastermind. He writes very succinct emails almost like haiku. But rest assured, he will give you all info you will ever need. The phone has arrived. The phone is being worked on. The data is retrieved. The phone has been sent out. And less than a month later, my phone just showed up at my door. 10k+ photos all intact and transferred to a backup drive. Trust the man, trust the process and you shall get your data recovered. read more

No joke, my baby drooled in my phone and caused water damage. Every apple store told me to say goodbye to every photo ever of my kids, (which is BS btw) then handed me a card for Drive Savers so I could pay a G for recovery. Scoured the internet for a second opinion and found iBoard repair and they were able to recover EVERYTHING!!!! For a reasonable price too. So thankful for them :) read more

iBoard Repair has great service and prices. My iPhone 11 Pro was water-damaged apparently to a severe point where it was fried and would not turn on at all. I had pictures and videos from the past 10 months that weren't backed up. I initially took my phone to Apple where they referred me to a business that quoted me $700-2000 for data recovery, depending on the difficulty of the job. I felt discouraged until I found iBoard. I came here where the flat rate was $550, and they were able to successfully retrieve all of my data in 3 weeks. My phone wasn't miraculously fixed during the process, but since it was so water-damaged and nearly impossible to work with, I'm grateful that Aaron spent the extra time and effort to successfully recover my data even when it seemed hopeless. Highly recommend! read more

Went to Apple for data repair and they recommended me a store that gave me an estimate of a couple thousand dollars. Contacted iBoard Repair and they got it fixed for much lower. They were also communicative, negotiable, and even kept a backup copy of my data when my original was lost during transit. Great services overall! read more

Shipped my iPhone to iBoard Repair after getting ocean water into it. Aaron was able to help me save all of my data and save it on a hard drive. He actually get the phone to work for a bit but unfortunately it still restarts every couple minutes. The important part for me was my pictures which he was able to recover. Will recommend him to anyone looking for data recovery. Thank you!! read more

Aaron is a lifesaver! My iphone stopped working all of a sudden, screen was black, no way of turning it back on. I tried everything in the book to try to boot it back up and nothing worked. I was SUPER stressed out since all my important pictures were on there. The people at Apple said that my data was gone and they had no way to recover it. Luckily Aaron is a PRO at what he does. Not only did he recover all my data he also created a back up that I was able to plug into my itunes account to restore EVERYTHING. I can't thank Aaron enough for restoring a year of my life. read more

I cant thank Aaron enough for fixing my Iphone7+!!! After apple and several phone repair shops told me that it is impossible for me to recover data on my phone Aaron turned impossible to possible! With his brilliance, i was able to recover my kids' precious and treasured photos! :) Aaron is very professional, accommodating and charges reasonable rates! Very, very highly recommended!!! read more

Christmas came early for me and something to be majorly thankful for Thanksgiving. iBoard Repair is a GODSEND!!! I thought I would never see my photos and videos ever again, but this repair shop rescued all of my contents on my old iPhone 6. Long story short, I went to the beach and I got hit by a huge wave. I fell and got submerged into the ocean's water and my iPhone 6 got soaked. After it was soaked, it turned off by itself. I did not have the tools to open it nor to take out the SIM card right away. When it was "off," it was heating up like crazy (due to a short circuit caused by the salt water intrusion). It was heating up, and then it stopped heating up. It was cold after that. A few hours later, I had someone to open my iPhone 6. He said that the motherboard/logic board looked really burned out. A few weeks later I went to a repair shop. The repairman took my phone apart and tried to turn it on. More than a week later he told me he could not save my phone, the screen itself is no good anymore, and I should give up on it. And then I heard about iBoard Repair from someone. That gave me hope. I contacted the repair shop via their website to tell them about my situation. They said they can do it. I dropped my phone there for them to retrieve my data. One week later, not only did they got ALL of my photos and videos back from the dead, but they also retrieved my contacts, notes, bookmarks, text messages and attachments...basically the entire phone contents!!! For just only $250!!! Other places would charge much higher than that. Very affordable!!! I don't know how they did it, but they just made my entire year!!!  I'm so happy that I got to know this shop.  I'm ever so grateful!!  I highly recommend this repair shop!!!. read more

I brought in my daughter's iPhone after we were informed it needed a repair that would ultimately delete all photos and videos. Not only did Aaron recover the photos and videos, he repaired the phone and now it works great. Thank you Aaron!! read more

Aaron's awesome! Needed a new backlight fuse soldered for my MacBook Pro 2011. Sent him a message and he replied within a few hours, ended up heading over to his home office and he finished the job in 15 minutes. He's a nice guy to talk to and from our conversation I learned that he puts the effort in to do good, professional repairs. I definitely recommend him and would drive up from Irvine any day to have him fix something for me! read more

Aaron was able to help me figure out what to do with my broken phone to retrieve data, though I was not able to fully resolve the issue due to me having password issues, Aaron called and talked me through my options, and provided other resources to resolve my problem! read more

I am beyond thrilled with Aaron and his work. My phone shorted out after getting wet, turned off, and I would not turn back on. All the local places told me there was no way to recover the pictures or data. Aaron got everything back, 13,000+ pictures (I should do auto backups, I know!). He doesn't bill until after he recovers the data, and he showed me screenshots of pictures from my phone so I knew he had accessed them. Point being, even though I was somewhat nervous to mail my phone to someone I found online, I couldn't be happier with the results and it was worth every penny. The turnaround time was very quick and Aaron kept me updated throughout the process, so I was quickly reassured that this was a legitimate repair service. I am very grateful to have found this place! read more

When it comes to board level work, Aaron has a success rate I didn't know was possible. From touch IC problems, backlights, and even liquid damage repair on iPhone boards so far as been 70-80%, which is way above what I had been able to achieve. His skills and proficiency have allowed me to offer this extremely valuable service to my clients, while maintaining a reasonable cost. Best of all, when he gives me a time frame, it's always on accurate, with very responsive and honest communication. I am very impressed with his work to date, and happy that he has come along to offer his services in our area. Outstanding. read more

I really want to thank them for their help! All seemed hopeless before I called them. Thanks for taking your time to help me put!

Aaron with iBoard Repair was amazing in repairing my iPhone 11 shattered screen. First time here for me. I walked in today at 4:30 pm by 4:45 I was out the door with my iPhone's screen replaced! . I couldn't be happier. I Highly recommend iBoard Repair! and prices are great! Thank You Aaron! read more

My iPhone XS stopped working. Took it to Apple Store and local phone repair shop - they both said likely motherboard damage and iphone could not be repaired. I sent the phone it iBoard, Aaron let me know that it was not the motherboard, it was the screen (screen had no visible damage). iBoard quickly fixed the iPhone XS at a reasonable price and set it back to me. Highly recommend!! read more

I am sooo amazed at the work Aaron was able to accomplish! I was so devastated when my iPhone 13 Pro Max broke and was bent! I initially sent it to a data recovery place thinking it's a recovery place I'm sure they can get it but they didn't specialize in iPhones and they deemed it unrepairable because the motherboard was cracked. I ended up researching for more places to give it one more shot and I stumbled across his company and what got me was that every review was 5 stars and he specifically specialized in IPHONE repair and recovery. I decided to go with him! He answered my questions and was honest, his prices were great and unbeatable for the data recovery! I was completely saddened I lost all the pictures of my babies from birth and his expertise allowed him to recovery my data which had been deemed a very difficult case! Thank you again ! I would advise ANYONE and everyone needing an iPhone recovery service go to him don't go elsewhere I promise you, you will be very satisfied!!! read more

I was referred to Aaron by a friend because I needed photos off of my iPhone 7. It was stuck on the Apple logo and would not start up. The photos were from a trip I had just gotten back from and the problem was likely from a screen replacement I got in Thailand. Aaron not only got the data, but he fixed the problem with the phone so it was in complete working order. His service is affordable, and fast. If you have problems with a phone or need board level work done this is the guy to take it to! read more

So About 3 weeks ago randomly my iPhone X just froze turned off and when i would turn it on it would keep looping on the Apple logo and phone would not start.None of my data was backed up on iCloud or my computer and my entire data and pictures and everything was there. After searching a bit I found this place and I'm mind blown. Super smooth process I shipped my phone within 8 days I received a email saying that all my data was saved on a flash drive including all my pictures and videos. After contacting multiple places and being told it's impossible to recover the data without powering the phone on. I had given up till I came across this place. Wow amazing service , all my data saved I would recommend this place to everyone. This place does advanced iPhone repairs and data recovery unlike other places that only do screen repair and battery replacement. read more

Okay to start of this guy is a HUGE life saver I literally contacted him at 2am probably or 1am and asked him if he can help me fix my phone (I tried fixing it myself I shorted the backlight blah blah) yes leave it to the professionals whatever! But may I say this guy is a Genius ! He literally responded to me quick and told me to come by in the morning. After hearing from other shops my phone was dead not fixable at all this guy literally fixed it idk what kind of powers he has , I'm sure he can fix anything ! honestly he's the best I didn't care about the drive we had to make out to find him . Definitely recommend him if I ever have any problems with other phones or know people I will have him as my go to ! thanks again Aaron you're the best :) read more

They do great work! My son had his iPhone XS Max Plus tempered glass replaced quickly and for a great price while we waited for it. I've had glass replaced many times at many places in many cities and this is the best in regards to service, price and quality - Life saver being that we can't get into an Apple Store currently to have the same service done for more than twice the amount, with the same results. I just had my iPhone 7 Plus done today. Again perfect service! Thanks for being open during these times and maintaining great service, quality and pricing! read more

This shop helped me recover the data on my broken iphone Xs when other shops couldn't. Being able to save all the memories on my camera roll was such a relief. The technician seemed very knowledgeable and helpful! read more

My phone dropped in the ocean and we were unable to find it until low tide. This phone had all my nieces newborn photos and my vacation to Catalina and all my contacts. I know I should have backed it up but I didn't! I took it to apple but they said that it was impossible to recover the data. I took it to two other repair shops and they both said the same thing, data is gone. I am soooo happy that I found Aaron and iBoard Repair. He explained the process to me and kept me updated and feeling comfortable through the whole process. He saved EVERYTHING! Thank you so much for saving my data I cannot say how happy I am! read more

My MacBook Air suffered water damage (spilled wine to be specific). The screen was flashing and I felt completely helpless. Aaron on the other hand did not. He was quick, efficient, and got my MacBook working like nothing ever happened. I'm so lucky to have been referred to him, I HIGHLY suggest you work with Aaron. read more

Aaron has been fixing mine and my family's phones for years now even though I have insurance with my phone carrier. I still go to him to fix certain problems rather than getting a refurbished phone. I honestly only pay for insurance incase I lose my phone otherwise I would just go to Aaron for all my repairs. He does a good job and his prices are very fair. read more

This company was a lifesaver for me. I sat in a baby pool with my 18 month old son. Inadvertently I left my iPhone 6 in my pocket. Needless to say I had water issues. I neglected to backup my phone and I thought I lost all 10,000 + pictured of my baby boy. I also attempted to charge the phone while it was still wet. I couldn't even turn the phone on. I phone Iboard repair. The service was quick and I was able to get all of my photos back. What a great service!! I am so happy that I found and researched this company. If you find yourself in a similar situation don't hesitate to call this company!!! read more

Aaron is a top notch custom iPhone recovery specialist. My phone was very damaged to the point it wasn't able to turn on. I was sure I'd never get the photos/videos back that weren't synced. He kept me up to date throughout the entire process of what he was doing and the next steps he needed to take. Aaron was able to make a full and total recovery of my data on my phone. He is worth every penny he charges and then some! read more

Wow! I had no hope left for my phone. My iphone 7plus suffered water damage and would not turn on at all. I was already looking for a new phone because I was convinced my phone was a goner. Luckily I stumbled across Aaron, he was up for the challenge and fixed my phone.. Im only a college student and I don't have much money to my name to be spending on a new phone let alone a repair but he worked with me and made it much more affordable. There was so much wrong with my phone and he fixed it ridiculously fast and was very responsive throughout with updates on my phone. My phone has no glitches whatsoever and works just as great as before it broke. I was a bit hesitant to send it to him because I thought it was probably going to be a scam but I was completely wrong. I will forever be a customer. Thank you so much Aaron.. this was a true blessing. read more

Aaron is a miracle worker! My iPhone 6 had an serious issue while doing an update through iTunes and got stuck on one screen. I couldn't update the phone or restore it. I thought I lost over a year's worth of photos. I took it to the Apple store and the genius staff couldn't fix it. Called Apple support and they couldn't help. As a last resort, I took it to iBoard Repair and within a week Aaron had recovered my photos AND got my phone working again for a reasonable price. Highly recommend iBoard Repair. read more

Definitely recommending anyone and everyone who needs to have their phone data recovered to contact Aaron. My wife dropped her phone in the pool and lost everything (at least we thought). I took it to ubreakifix because they initially did a screen repair which we have come to realize was not properly installed properly sealed. They attempted to repair it via their water damage service with no luck. Had another person try with no luck. Contact multiple company of which I was denied service do to previous failed attempts (was told ubreakifix breaks the phones more then repairs). Aaron at iboard repair was my last hope. Sooo glad I found him, not only did he recover the data (all of it) but he did it so quick. I was able to surprise my wife with all her data. On top of that he helped to create a backup of the old phone so we could restore her new phone. The smile on my wife's faced made it worth every penny, which to be honest was actually at a really reasonable price for how quick he was able to recover the data. I have already recommended his services to friends and family. Would definitely work with Aaron again (hopefully not any time soon) but now I know where I can go and where I can send family and friends in the same position. Thanks again for everything! Couldn't be any happier with the results. read more
