I was minding my own business, using my iPad when the unthinkable happened – I dropped it and the screen shattered into pieces right before my very eyes.<\/p>\n

My mom was there when it happened and suggested I look for iPad screen repair near me<\/a><\/u> to quickly fix the issue.<\/p>\n

I knew that a broken iPad screen would just cause future issues. The screen protects the inner components, so when it\u2019s broken, they’re exposed to harmful elements from the environment. This would lead to more iPad damage, so I realized that I had to get this problem fixed as quickly as I could.<\/p>\n

Stubbornly, I decided that this would be an easy enough problem to solve on my own even though I had no iPad screen repair experience. Turns out mother always knows best.<\/p>\n

My Experience Trying to Fix My Own iPad Screen<\/h3>\n

I made every mistake you could possibly make when I attempted my repair. To start, I ordered the wrong iPad repair kit for my iPad model online. I ended up having to return it after ordering the proper one, which meant more time I had to spend separated from my iPad.<\/p>\n

Next, I didn\u2019t expect the LCD on the iPad to be broken too – but it was. iPad screens are made of three layers, not just a piece of glass like I thought. A glass display is on top of a part called a digitizer, which sits on top of an LCD.<\/p>\n

When I ordered my iPad replacement screen, I only received that glass display and digitizer. After doing some online research, I realized that replacing the screen only wouldn\u2019t fix my problem. Still, I didn\u2019t look for iPad repair near me. I continued to try to fix my device on myself.<\/p>\n

And speaking of online research, the DIY YouTube videos I checked out wasn\u2019t exactly accurate. An example of a repair video I saw included a screwdriver and a hairdryer. After spending hours trying to fix my iPad screen to no avail, I broke down and took it to a repair shop.<\/p>
