I did the pre-order thing last night - iPhone 15 Pro. Now trying to decide - pickup or delivery??? And only 5 minutes to go!

Does everyone load their apple store apps or do they wait until exactly 5:00 am and load them then? Does it make a difference?

I’m still undecided if I want to do store pickup or delivery. How is it picking up? Is it crazy busy, long lines?
It’s scheduled so as long as you have everything good to go, you walk in, give them your name, wait 1-3 minutes and “checkout” and leave. You can choose to pickup the phone and leave or at the time browse / add more stuff since you have a dedicated person helping you.

No matter how busy the store is, the pick up process is usually smooth / quick. Apples good at handling large influxes during launch days.

So, any bets on when the store will *actually* open? Will it be 5am pacific? 5:30? 6? Few years ago, it didn't open for *hours*.. Don't recall which phone it was, but that wasn't fun.

God willing here we are again ready to go in 5 minutes. I also wish it was midnight and not 5am but it is what is it. Happy preorder day everyone.

My husband is trying to troubleshoot my moms cell phone so he just dialed MY iPhone that I am waiting to use for my order! :mad:

I thought my mom was calling me. You don’t ignore my mom, she would just keep calling back.

I wonder how many people will waste precious seconds swiping up to clear their preorder reminder/alarm and accidentally close the Apple Store App thus missing out on the 1st batch? Hmmmm, to disable or not..

One way to go directly to saved iphone preorder is from the calendar URL if you saved it during getting ready for iPhone step !
