After weeks of closures, Apple's all 42 stores in China are now open, the iPhone maker's Chinese website showed on Friday.

According to its website, Apple has listed the opening time for all stores, which vary from 10:00 am to 11:00 am local time. The website had previously carried an advisory saying not all stores were open.

Apple had announced the shuttering of its stores in early February due to fears over the coronavirus outbreak. 

According to the data from China Academy of Information and Communications Technology, only 494,000 iPhone were sold in China during February. The tech giant sold 1.27 million units in February 2019.

China placed curbs on travel and asked residents to avoid public places in late January, just ahead of the Lunar New Year festival, a major gift-giving holiday. Those restrictions stayed largely in place through most of February.
