AppleCare+ with Theft and Loss for iPhone 17 Pro Max is Apple’s highest level of protection plan, designed for maximum security of your premium device against both damage and serious risks like theft or loss.

It includes unlimited accidental damage coverage, such as screen or back glass repairs using genuine Apple parts. You also get battery service if battery health drops below Apple standards and 24/7 priority Apple support for technical help anytime.

The key feature is theft and loss protection, which allows up to two incidents per year. If your iPhone 17 Pro Max is lost or stolen, Apple provides a replacement device after claim approval, but a service fee (deductible) applies per incident.

To use this coverage, Find My must remain enabled at the time of loss or theft and throughout the claim process; otherwise the claim can be rejected.

Apple has also introduced flexible monthly and yearly subscription options (starting around ₹799 in India for iPhone coverage), making it easier to maintain protection instead of paying a large upfront cost.

You can purchase AppleCare+ within 60 days of buying your iPhone 17 Pro Max, directly from Settings or Apple Store.

Simple summary

For iPhone 17 Pro Max, this plan is the most complete protection Apple offers—covering damage + theft + loss. It’s expensive, but it’s mainly for users who want maximum safety for a top-tier device.
