Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between Renewd® and new?

A Renewd® iPhone has been given a second life and has been checked at more than 80 points by certified specialists, thoroughly cleaned and provided with the latest software. Because it is a used product, a Renewd® device may contain small traces of use. These will never affect the functioning, because every Renewd® device is 100% in technical condition.

What does the Refurbished Certificate mean?

The Refurbished Certificate is a recognised Dutch quality mark in the area of used products, so you can be sure that you are making a good purchase. This Certificate is supported by Techniek Nederland and TüV, among others. So far, the Certificate only applies to iPhone, iPad and MacBook devices, and these Renewd® are covered by it.

My device is not new, but used. How can this be?

Every Renewd® device has been given a second life and may therefore show some signs of use, but this does not affect its ease of use. Each unit is checked by expert specialists on more than 80 points with official software of the manufacturer. The inside functions just like a new one, but the outside may show some signs of use.

The device has some scratches, what should I do?

Every Renewd® device has been given a sustainable second life and may therefore have a few scratches, but this does not affect its ease of use. Each device is checked by certified specialists on more than 80 points with the official software of the manufacturer. The inside functions just like a new one, but the outside may show some signs of use.

The device is not completely clean, what should I do?

Every Renewd® unit is disinfected and cleaned after a thorough quality check, just before it is packed. Because we use durable materials, it is possible that some dust is released during transport and the device is not delivered completely clean. This does not affect its user-friendliness.

The device does not boot up, what should I do?

Did you receive your Renewd® device, but it does not boot up? It is possible that the battery is empty when the Renewd® iPhone is delivered. Put it on the charger for at least 4 hours before using it for the first time. Does the device still not work? Request a repair at https://www.renewd.com/warranty.

The device asks for a password that I did not set myself, what should I do?

A Renewd® iPhone is always reset to factory settings before it comes in the box. It is therefore not possible that it has a password or data of previous users on it. If you forgot your own password, please follow the next steps: https://support.apple.com/nl-nl/HT204306 .

I am not satisfied with the cosmetic quality of the unit, what should I do?

Every Renewd® device has been used before and may have some minor traces of use, but is technically always 100% in order. The guideline for the traces of use is that in a normal (natural) light, at an arm’s length distance, you will not see any obvious scratches or other traces of use. Should the product not meet your expectations, please contact us by e-mail at [email protected] with photos and an explanation.

There are no earphones / headset in the package, what should I do?

Earphones or a headset are never included with a Renewd® smartphone.

There is an accessory (adapter and/or cable) missing in the package, what should I do?

A Renewd® iPhone is shipped with:

  • Adapter
  • Lightning to USB cable
  • SIM pin

A Renewd® Watch is standard delivered with:

  • Magnetic charging cable

If one or more of these accessories are missing, please contact us at [email protected].

I want to return the device but I no longer have the original packaging, what should I do?

I'm not sure if my damage is covered by the guarantee, what should I do?

Our support team will be happy to help you assess whether your damage is covered by the warranty. When in doubt, always contact us via [email protected] .

Can I have my device repaired if the warranty is over?

If the warranty has expired, it is still possible to have your device repaired.

About Renewd® Watch

I do not have an iPhone or an iPad, can I use my Renewd® Watch?

Our advice is to only use a Renewd® Watch if you pair it with an iPhone. If you are pairing your Renewd® Watch with an Android device, the functions are very limited.

The strap of my Renewd® Watch does not fit, what should I do?

With a Renewd® Watch 1 strap is standard delivered. The sizes are indicated in the product information. We do not deviate from this. If it does not fit, we recommend you to buy a matching strap yourself. This way you can still make optimal use of the Renewd® Watch.

How can I sync / backup my Renewd® Watch?

You do not need to manually sync / back up your Renewd® Watch. The Renewd® Watch automatically backs up its content each time you pair it with an iPhone. The content is stored in your iPhone iCloud or iTunes backups, but cannot be viewed from iCloud. It is also backed up when you disconnect the two devices. You can restore your Renewd® Watch from the last backup by choosing “Restore from backup” option when you pair your Renewd® Watch with iPhone again. https://support.apple.com/en-gb/HT204518

How do I restart/reboot my Renewd® Watch?

Just like any computer, the Renewd® Watch will occasionally need a power cycle to fix problems. Resetting the Renewd® Watch with a reboot can be accomplished using a simple process. To reboot the Renewd® Watch, long press the button on the side followed by a swipe across the screen. The same screen can also be used to enter power reserve mode. https://support.apple.com/en-gb/guide/watch/apd521a8a902/watchos
