Amidst a significant increase in localized heavy rainfall events, such as torrential downpours and linear rainbands, the demand for effective responses to smartphone water damage incidents during commutes and outdoor activities is growing. Statistics from the Japan Meteorological Agency indicate a 1.5-fold increase in short-duration heavy rainfall (over 50mm/hour) between 1976 and 2024, and a more than twofold increase in overall heavy rainfall frequency over the past 45 years. In contrast, Apple Store's repair policy for water-damaged iPhones is limited to device replacement, resulting in data loss if no prior backup exists. Many independent repair providers outsource logic board repairs, leading to turnaround times of several weeks to months. Recognizing the critical importance of repair speed for data recovery, Smart Doctor Pro Osaka Shinsaibashi Main Store, a Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications registered repair provider with 17 years of experience, announced on June 1, 2026, ahead of the rainy season, its enhanced three-channel service system (in-store, mail-in, and corporate reception) that completes logic board repairs in-house for same-day service.
