Two major federal programs help eligible Americans receive free smartphones and wireless service.
Established by the FCC in 1985, Lifeline provides a monthly discount on phone or internet service to eligible low-income consumers. Many Lifeline providers now offer free smartphones, including iPhones, as part of their service package.
The ACP provides a discount of up to $30/month toward internet service and a one-time discount of up to $100 toward a connected device like an iPhone. This program has helped millions of families stay connected.
Many states offer additional wireless assistance programs that supplement federal Lifeline benefits. These state programs may provide enhanced benefits including newer iPhone models and more monthly data.
A smartphone is no longer a luxury — it's essential for everyday life. Here's what you'll get.
Access Apple's powerful ecosystem with Face ID, high-quality cameras, App Store, iMessage, FaceTime, and regular security updates.
Most plans include unlimited talk, text, and generous data allowances — often 10GB or more of high-speed data each month.
Search for jobs, submit applications, attend video interviews, and stay connected with potential employers — all from your iPhone.
Schedule medical appointments, access telehealth services, manage prescriptions, and communicate with healthcare providers.
Access online courses, educational apps, school portals, and research resources. Essential for students at every level.
Call 911 in emergencies, receive weather alerts, and stay connected with family during critical situations.
