AppleCare One is Apple's bundled coverage plan: $19.99/month covers up to 3 devices, plus $5.99/month for each additional device. This calculator totals up what your devices would cost on individual AppleCare+ plans and compares that to the bundle price, so you can see which one actually saves you money.

- Select devices: browse the catalog, or filter by category and search
- See the math: the calculator totals individual AppleCare+ pricing and compares it to the AppleCare One bundle
- Get the result: it shows which option is cheaper, by how much, and any break-even or annual-prepay notes that apply
- U.S. AppleCare+ prices checked against Apple's published rates as of July 2026 (includes the July 15, 2026 Mac/iPad price increase for new sign-ups)
- AppleCare+ is a single tier that includes Theft & Loss on iPhone, iPad, and Apple Watch
- Annual prepay is roughly 10x the monthly price (about two months free) on devices where Apple publishes an annual rate; legacy devices don't have one, so they stay on monthly billing
