    If I use my iPad with my hands which are very dry and cracked and sometimes bleeding a little on the top of my hand in the winter time will it cause liquid damage to the iPad?

There’s no apparent damage but I’m paranoid, so I wonder if...

    AirPods liquid damage

    Hello, I have a quick question: Would Apple repair AirPods unfortunately damaged by a liquid spillage if I didn't buy it through them? I brought the AirPods from John Lewis, but their guarantee doesn't include accidental damage. But if I paid for a repair by Apple, would they do it? Thanks,
