When I apply the screen protector it has air pockets in there which distorts the screen. Is there a way to get rid of those?

The air pockets I experienced didn't distort the screen, but they were annoying. If there had been instructions as to which side of the screen to peel the protective film off of first I may have been able to eliminate the air bubbles or at least make them smaller and less noticeable. Maybe if you peel the screen protector off and slowly press it down a little at a time working the air bubbles out as you proceed until the protector is applied to the screen again, the air bubbles may be gone. Good luck!

Make sure you clean the iPad's surface by using the mild alcohol based product or a damp cloth and keep it dry. Make sure there are no specks of dust before applying the protector 'cause this may get stuck when protector is applied also causing air pockets between the iPad's surface and protector. Don't inmediately remove the sticker cover with number 1 label from the protector to avoid exposing it into air or dust. Use a squeegee or a soft cloth in removing air pockets in circular motion before removing the number 2 plastic.

First put on some latex gloves, then wipe down the computer screen with the dusting cloth in the package. Make absolutely sure the screen has NO dust/dirt particles. Try laying it flat on the table and looking across the screen to be sure its clear. With the gloves still on remove the backing on the Screen protector and try to only hold it by the edges. Line up the notch with the windows button on the bottom of the screen and allow the screen protector to adhere from the center of the device to the outside edges. Smooth the air bubbles out with the long side of your credit card wrapped with the cleaning cloth from the center of the screen to the edges. As long as the screen and the protector are clean and free of dust and dirt this should work. If not, I'm pretty sure this is why they come in packs of 2, I guess they give you one to practice with. CLEAN is the key. One tiny speck of dust is all you need to get a bubble that won't go away

That's happened to me too but for some reason not with this case. I've had no air bubbles. But I use a decal and then put the clear case over it. Hope that helps!

NO! One of the things I had issues with. It trashed two screen protectors with scratches and rubs. I threw it out.

What J.C. Says about the 2 plastic sheets, is correct. BUT after installing per the instructions. I found several air bubbles very difficult to get rid of, After reapplying several times. I gave up in frustration.

I would remove the flimsy one that the case comes with. Im using a tempered glass screen protector on mine with no issues.

True Air Bubbles are rubbed out. You will be laying the protector starting at the top and coming down. Watch for bubbles starting now as you cover the screen. Use the lint free cloth. Dust partials have to be removed with the tape if there are any strays. Lay the lint free cloth over the phone. The phone should be super clean before you start. Make sure to rub from the center out..

No, they send you a film to apply over your screen. It left too many bubbles so I removed it.

I found out that the best method to get rid of the dust is using the dust removing stickers. After you wipe the screen with the micro-fiber cloth, use the stickers even if you don't see any dust. Then quickly apply the protector. The more you delay, the bigger the chance some tiny, nasty mote ensconces between the display and the protector ...

You have to clean the screen with the cloth provided. They suggest you install the protector in the bathroom after a steaming shower so that the dust is at a minimum. After applying the protector use the little plastic thing to push out any air bubbles. I followed these instructions I found online and I have one little speck of dust unter the protector that I can't get out but it isn't enough to bother anything.

Send you a clear piece of very thin plastic that you must off and apply to protect the front of phone from getting scratched and you got to put it on without air bubbles under it and if you peal it off so many times, you get a big air bubble under it. I think they're hard to put on just right but then that's just me.

Just clean the screen with a microfiber cloth then apply. If there are air bubbles, you can probably get them out by just using your fingernails or something to push them to the edges. Sometimes it works sometimes it doesn't. There unfortunately isn't a magic method to get rid of bubbles and dust particles. Sometimes you have to go through a few of these things to get one nailed down.

No I do not have that problem.. use some rubbing alcohol and clean both sides of screen protector to remove residues

If you can, insert your phone with a TPU shell on it.This will stretch the bag tighter and also elevate the bag off the screen around the edges.

There are two pieces of plastic that cover the screen protector. Pull #1 (thin plastic film will come off) and apply it to your phone. Then pull #2 (another thin plastic film will come off), and then smooth down to remove air bubbles.

Yes. That is what I have. I had more than a little trouble getting the screen to be lint free before installing .... and the air bubbles drove me crazy. After only a few hours I yanked it off and chalked it up to experience. I should have gotten the anti-glare screen in the first place.
