iPhone X Pre-Order Tips & Tricks

Use the Apple Store App

Websites, including Apple's, often crumble when pre-orders go live. They're typically slow and they might even crash on you.

The Apple Store application is an excellent alternative to these websites. The app is free and it lets you buy Apple hardware the same way you would through Apple’s website.

In the past, we’ve had great success with the Apple Store application. When sites started buckling under the pressure, we were able to stroll into the Apple Store app and purchase a new iPhone without any problems.

There's no guarantee it will be stable on Friday, but it has a great track record and it’s worth a shot for those that either can’t get to a computer, want to order from bed, or simply don’t trust websites to function normally once pre-orders start.
