Or put it in a case so it doesn't keep falling apart

If it's shattered, I've heard of people wrapping it in plastics wrap to hold it together.

Make an appointment and then go to the apple store. When I went to Verizon for mine they said they couldn't do anything.

Or if you want there's replacement screens online. If you trust yourself enough to fix it yourself you could. I wouldn't recommend that though

Either do this or see if your local mall has some sort of kiosk that can do it. i know at my mall theres a store that can do it for like $50 or you can bring them a brand new screen and they can fix it on the spot for like $20. I'd say stay away from Apple, they'll most likely overcharge you.

I cracked mine about a month ago, I basically just coated the screen with packing tape and it works good enough. I didin't want to spend the $80 to get it repaired since I'm gunna upgrade to the 6 anyways
