The Apple Store app has been updated with the ability to check-in at Apple Stores for reservation pickup and customer assistance, as well as, the ability to reserve products and add engraving and gift wrapping to select purchases.

Tap the Apple Store app on your iPhone or iPod touch, and you can do all things Apple. Buy Apple products and accessories and read customer reviews. Add free laser engraving and choose signature gift wrap on select products to make your items even more special. Find Apple Retail Stores, reserve select Apple products for pickup at your favorite store, and request help when you are at the store. Schedule Genius Bar and One to One reservations and check in for them when you arrive.

The Apple Store app is also the easiest way to buy or reserve your new iPhone — right from your current iPhone. You can do it in just a few taps, without entering your AT&T account information. Order your new iPhone from the Apple Online Store and it's shipped to you free and ready to use. Or reserve your new iPhone, pick it up at an Apple Retail Store, and we'll set it up for you in minutes.
