I didn’t know it would come with so much help and assistance and video to show you how to do it if you don’t already know how. I was very impressed with my purchase and if I need another one in the future I will definitely order from them again

My early/mid-life iPad suffered a pretty bad screen break and it got worse over a few weeks of trying to use it. Without Applecare, they charge almost the cost of a replacement to repair it. There are a few local repair places that offered to fix it for about 1/2 of that, but they had pretty mixed reviews, so this was worth a try. Short answer is that it works. If you are patient and comfortable with doing work on tiny, awkward things, its WELL WORTH the money to try this. There is a good YouTube video or two on doing the repair and I recommend watching them a few times and allowing yourself a few hours to do the repair. The worst part for me (and the video guy) was getting the broken screen off and getting it cleaned up. I do own a heat gun, a watch makers loupe and a set of precision tweezers that Im pretty good with (amateur watchmaker). The kit comes with all/most of the tools you need, I did buy a smaller philips head screwdriver from my corner hardware store. It took me a couple of hours and I had a problem getting it to work at first. Its tough to say if the problem was me or the kit, but there is a card in the kit to email them if you have an issue, before initiating a return or leaving a negative review. I did so without much hope mid-day on Saturday and got a reply almost instantly that turned into a series of helpful and almost real time exchanges on how to resolve the issue. So, the person or people selling these are legit and the most service oriented Ive experienced in decades, which is a wonderful surprise. The bottom line is that my iPad is back in action for a fraction of the cost of a replacement. I dont think that I did a perfect job with it. Getting the screen seated perfectly is something that might take me a few more tries to get right, but its back in commission and I needed it to be. If I see an amazing black Friday deal...its possible that I may still replace it, but I dont need to right now, so this kit was 100% worth the expense, time, and effort. Go for it, as long as youre down for going slowly and doing the work.

This was pretty easy to install. First time using it was just like regular. Acts like normal but if you are planning to use an Apple Pencil like I use for my iPad this screen is not for you. It’s only responsive in small lines vertically on the screen. Probably will have to have a shop replacement to work with Apple Pencil. Sometimes it’s also unresponsive to finger touch but not as often as Apple Pencil. The home button did fall off inside the iPad a couple of days into the use of the screen. Could be user error or something but I didn’t expect it. Adhesion isn’t great but I just relied on the pre installed adhesive and not the tape that comes with it. Screen didn’t work but the company is great to work with. Awesome customer service. I got a full refund which is Amazing.

Ok, so I tried two digitizers from this vendor (Goodfixer) and both of them showed key ghosting after installation so I had to return and request a refund on both. Let me review both the vendor and digitizers separately.... Digitizers: For the first digitizer, I proceeded with the installation as described in the Goodfixer video (as well as other videos indicated below), and I did test the digitizer before removing the inside protecting film, and it seemed to be working fine, however after completing the installation (including adhering to the chassis) and started to use it the key ghosting (acting like random keys were pressed) was showing, and it was not responding to any of the touch commands I was trying thru the digitizer. I thought I had done something incorrect during the installation, so I proceeded to contact Goodfixer, proceeded to re-order a 2nd one, and got my refund for the first one. When receiving the 2nd one, I was extra careful thru the installation (reviewed the videos multiple times), but just before proceeding to adhere digitizer I tested again and still saw the key ghosting in the 2nd digitizer, so started to so some research online, and came across an article where other users have noticed similar experience when replacing the digitizer, and have mentioned they needed to tape the border of the new digitizer as some of the replacement ones had some shortage issue when contacting the ipad chassis. So, thinking to give this a try decided to try on the first one, and if everything went well, will do the same on the 2nd one. So, I proceeded to put transparent tape on the bottom side of the first digitizer (to both sides of the home button), and that worked. The first digitizer was responding normally. However, when I proceeded to do the same (this time using recommended Kapton tape) to the 2nd digitizer, it still was showing the defect. I even put tape around the sides, but nothing, I could not get it to work correctly. At this moment I was not happy (given how difficult the installation is) and having to do it multiple times, and by now I had proven myself the digitizers were the problem. So, I showed my evidence to Goodfixer, and requested a refund which was honored. I proceeded to order a 3rd digitizer (from a different vendor: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0857KSMDB ), and it worked as a charm from the first time. So, my son is happy but it was a very stressful time for Dad :( So, if you are going to proceed with this digitizer know beforehand there is a risk associated with it, and given how difficult the installation is you may want to weight that in your final decision. It may have work for some people, but for me it did not. Vendor: Goodfixer was very responsive, answered all my questions, and followed up thru email with the refund process, also they tried their best to be understanding and responsive even though it had turned out to be a bad experience for me given the defective product. Tips for installation: If you are going to try to install the ipad 7 digitizer, you should watch multiple videos, multiple times and follow the process (to the letter) step by step. There a few available in youtube but the two ones that help me the most were: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=clvQI59_r0o and this one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fj86RDBwMjY Try to get a magnetic screwdriver that you can use as a backup to the one provided. Armed yourself with a lot of patience.... Hope this helps!...Good luck!

I bought this to replace my sons ipad screen. The screen is easy to install and came with all the tools you will need the video was very helpful as well.

This was my first iPad that I fixed. I have fixed several things (iPhone, washing machine, dishwasher , vacuum….) in my past but this was tougher than I imagined. The bottom line is “this product works.” But there are couple hiccups that ends up with problems. One is tape, which suppose to hold the screen tight, is loose so there is a gap between screen and iPad itself. I have to tape it from outside to close it. The other one is a home button. This screen came with a home button. I should have kept the old one but I was bother to remove the new one so I decided to remove the old… that was huuuuuuge mistake. As I tried to remove it, the connector broke. The glue that hold down the home button connector was way strong. I don’t recommend to remove it. If I ever do again, I would keep the old one. Now I have a home button assistant on the screen so it works, tho. I just wanted to give a life to my broken IPad so I have no complaint about the purchase but be aware….

I have used this product on two different iPad and both were easy to install and work flawlessly.

I had initially bought my iPad about 3 years ago and had shattered the screen about 2 years ago and was not so confident in replacing it. But with a couple videos and the amazing tools sent with the kit made fixing my iPad a breeze. It honestly looks brand new again. A nice bonus was there was a screen protector included. Definitely put that on as soon as the new screen is in itll save a lot of headaches in the future.

We had a shattered screen, so this was bought to fix it. Once I finally got the little bits of glass off the frame, and all cleaned up, which took 1.5 hours, I started to get into hooking the new home button to the iPad. It looks so simple. I will leave it there. I am mechanically inclined, and plugging the new button is almost impossible if not difficult. The place where it connects is not an easy contact place. It’s a piece of rubber with connectors within it. You cannot force the small connection of the home button at all into this area. It will not allow you to. You can not use tweezers as far as to damage the wiring, so after about 30 minutes for me, I went to Target and bought my wife a new tablet. In Summary, installation failed. Not simple, it’s tougher than it seems on the video. The person had skill and practice. It’s an advanced install. Be prepared to get your own tools involved. Also tools provided were broken within 5 minutes of use. Glass chunks, wiring difficulties, and lack of detail instructions were what I did not extend more stars for. Go buy a new tablet, or get yours insured. It will save you money and time.

My ipad broken by my son tried diy changed screen touch all over the place didn’t worked I gave up and thrower away somewhere frustrated fast forward 6 months I badly need ipad for my son apps buying new vs trying one more screen replacement working like charm.
