Apple won't do the repairs past 5 years in most of the country, up to 7 years in California.

But you can do it yourself. Repair kits for iPads: https://www.ifixit.com/Kits/iPad-Fix-Kits iPhones: https://www.ifixit.com/Kits/iPhone-Fix-Kits/iPhone-Battery-K...

Disclaimer: I sell these.

Are there no third party repair services in the US? In Europe these are basically on every corner.
