If you just upgraded to the iPhone 17, congrats. You’re basically holding a tiny spaceship. The camera is ridiculous, the battery lasts forever, and the whole thing feels like a flex. Still, even the newest iPhones need some love before the holiday chaos hits.
Every year we see the same thing here at STEM Support in Calgary. People wait until Christmas morning to realize their phone is glitching, lagging, or dying at 20 percent while they try to record family videos. If you want your iPhone 17 running perfectly through Christmas, here is what to take seriously.
Cold Weather Is a Battery Killer
Calgary winter gets aggressive. When the temperature drops, your battery drains faster and your phone can shut off even when it says you have charge left. A quick battery health check at STEM Support can prevent random shutdowns while you are out holiday shopping or building a snowman.
Holiday Season Is Peak Screen Crack Time
Skates in one hand, hot chocolate in the other. You go to take a selfie and your iPhone slips. We see the most cracked screens between mid November and New Year’s Eve. If your screen has even a tiny chip, fix it now before it spreads.
The iPhone 17 Still Has Bugs
Apple is still pushing out early updates. If your apps are crashing or your camera freezes, you are not imagining it. We do full diagnostics to figure out whether it is software or hardware. That way you avoid showing up to Christmas dinner with a phone that refuses to open the camera.
Holiday Photo Cleanup
Storage fills up fast during the holidays. Instead of deleting memories, let us help you clean up your iPhone properly. We optimize storage, clear hidden data, and make sure your phone is ready for non stop pictures.
Leave the Holidays With Zero Tech Stress
Get your iPhone 17 tuned up before December hits. Your future self will thank you.
