GadgetGuy Reasonable, reliable, and responsible! I specialize in all areas of device repair, maintenance, and Hello everyone! Eventually repairs will be needed.

My name is Jonathan Clifton and I can't tell you how excited I am to fix your gadgets. From the time I was old enough to hold a screw driver in my hand I was taking things apart to see how they worked. To my siblings whose toys I chose not to always put back together....sorry, I was young, I'm sure I've made up for it in free repairs since then. I'll keep it simple, this is what I ultimately do be

st. We live in a world full of computers, tablets, and all sorts of gadgets. There's only so much you can do to stretch the life of a product. So here I am! My goal is to be able to do what I love most, what I'm best at, and make a living at it. From what I've seen so far my costs are substantially lower than most. I want to make it clear that your not sacrificing quality whatsoever. Everyone has a price on what they feel their time and effort is worth. This is just mine. I look forward to putting that "new toy" smile back on your face.

I met Jacob while fixing a phone for a friend of his. Very impressive young man. Maturity and wisdom far beyond average. Thanks again for everything Jacob!

From humble basement beginnings in 2013—with a soldering iron from Menards and YouTube tutorials—Jon, The Gadget Guy, built his reputation one repair at a time. No flashy launch. No big investor backing. Just quiet repetition, grit, and genuine care that turned precision into trust—and trust into a bustling downtown storefront in Cedar Rapids. 

“You might have to fake it at first. But if you do it enough, it stops being fake. You just become it.” That’s the power of repetition. 

Don’t just drop off your device—trust Jon to treat it like his own. Honest, empathetic, and fast.

Haven’t posted anything in a hot minute, only because I’ve been so gratefully busy I can barely breath, lbs! That being said I put the breaks on for a quick second before I wrap up this last PS5 HDMI to take the opportunity to thank all of you for keeping me so busy and trusting me with all of your Gadgets! I couldn’t have done any of this without all of you! Merry Christmas, Happy New Year and shoot me a text in a couple days after I press this holiday reset button!!! 🎅 🎄

To all the  user’s out there. TURN THIS FEATURE OFF!!! It has great intentions but it’s so new that in its current state it has terrible consequences if you damage your phones facial recognition hardware!!! Imagine not having access to your phone just because it doesn’t “recognize” you?!?! Even after entering the correct Lock Screen PW, if your Face ID hardware is damaged/not functioning or EVEN IF the sun is bouncing off your favorite sunglasses…if you are not in a “safe/home location”….sowweee 🤷🏼‍♂️, iPhone assumes your phone has been stolen and holy headache!!!!

FYI, mine was turned on without my approval or acknowledgment during a recent update. So don’t think this is something you have to opt into.
