4 Use the Apple Store App
Looking back at past iPhone launches, customers who used the Apple Store iOS app had better luck actually pre-ordering a new device. It’s probably the fastest way to select a device, add it to your card and check-out. The app isn’t natively included with iOS, so you’ll have to download it from the App Store. Similarly, if you don’t have an iOS device, you’re out of luck.
For those who do have an iPhone or iPad, even Apple itself acknowledges that the Apple Store app is the fastest way to preorder. So if you’re planning on preordering the iPhone X, now’s a good time to download the app from the App Store, login with your Apple ID, and set up your Apple Pay with a working credit or debit card. You can install the app with this link.
Lastly, you can use the following trick on your Apple Store app to make the process a snap.
- Open the App and tap on the iPhone X banner.
- Tap the iPhone X, and choose your color and storage capacity.
- Add the iPhone X to your Favorites for quick access at launch.
