Does installing this shield cause water damage to the iPad Air?

I saw no sign or indication of any damage. I did keep a paper towel close to dab the excess fluid away.

Absolutely not. I spritzed BOTH the Zagg shield itself AND the surface of my iPad Air very liberally. Once the Zagg goes on and is centered properly, you simply squeegee the fluid from the center and push it away from the home button and camera and all is good. Any residual moisture you can't get with the squeegee will evaporate from under the Zagg and leave a perfectly invisible shield. Don't be afraid to get the screen of your iPad wet. I have used this method on 3 different iPads and 4 different iPhones without any issues.

I didn't like the product. It hung over the edges and would not recommend it. I don't think it causes water damage.

Not if you are careful. I keep paper towel nearby and constantly dry the home button and camera area and I also wipe down the sides often.

I did not see a warranty. It was for my husband and so far there has not been a problem. It seems like it will hold up unless it is abused pretty badly. I have an ipad air cover and to me there doesn't seem to be any difference but haven't used the other one. Hope this helps.

You should wait 24 hours from the time you installed the shield until you turn the ipad back on. By then, most of the bubbles should have disappeared. If you see anything other than bubbles than you probably want to remove the film and put it back on again. You shouldn't see much of a difference by having the shield on other than a few minor bubbles that aren't even noticeable. When I applied mine, I boiled water and brought the boiling pot to the table where I was going to apply the shield so the steam would reduce air dust as much as possible. Hope this helps!

No. The Air is smaller than the iPad3 (which I have btw) & since this case snaps into place to function it would be of no use trying to protect an Air.

It does come with a wet spray to clean the screen and then to spray on the shield and iPad so that you can slide it into place. If you clean it well and use the squeegee to seal it, the shield will last a very long time for you.

What I do, Mary, is get the spray and not only dowse the sticky part of the cover but also lightly spray the iPad as well. It will still be a little sticky, but you should be able to slide the shield into place. Once you get it where you want, the rubber piece that comes in the package is used to squeeze out the moisture. Start in the middle of the screen and work your way out getting the big bubbles out. It takes a few days for all of the small bubbles to go away, but they will.Good luck!! Maggie

Hi Nicole George, I apologize for the delay in answering! Yes they do offer some protection from steam such as you describe, but only slightly more than if you had no cover on at all. We cannot guarantee the steam not to have seepage, and therefore some effect on your device. Apple as you know, is very sensitive to water damage altogether. If you have any further questions just ask! Her's my link! : Link:

Well i have a for instance for u. I had a brand new, shiny one installed on my tablet when my frisky kitten bit the corner of my tablet in play and left a bite mark on the shield. Stuff happens. I didn't replace it because it was at the edge of my screen and didn't impact my view, but was good to have the spare in case �

I have tried everything and cannot keep it clean. I love Zagg keyboards and have used them for earlier versions of the iPad. I was tired of the black, and they only offer white as an option for the iPad Air. A friend suggested I paint it with a leather/vinyl paint. So, I ordered the paint on Amazon and should receive it in a couple of days. I will be painting it red, and will repost after I have done so to let you know how it works.

I have the new IPad Air and installed the iSmooth screen protector this evening. It works perfectly. Please make sure you watch the installation video on their web site. They give you great installation tips

Nope. I've had mine a month and it's been great. I have seen the smear lines on iPads with Apple Smart Covers. Hopefully it wipes off.I am using a screen protector too FWIW.

I have to say a resounding NO. The screen protector covers the apps icons you use but leaves the ear receiver uncovered which would leave enough opening for water to saturate your iPhone. There is at least one maker of water resistant iPhone overs but for the life of me, I have forgotten their name. Search Amazon for water resistant iPhone covers and it should come up with the product. All the best.

Works great! I use it on my iPad air (retina display) all the time. The "retina display" is under a glass layer so no need to worry about damage.

I do not know that answer my iPad isn't an iPad Air sorry. Try asking the owner.

No. It is just a 2 pc cover. There is no front shield, so I add a clear screen guard. Water usually isn't an issue for me though. I love how durable they have been for me.

Hasn't happened to mine...it's been on my iPad for 1.5 haven't changed it yet. I was thinking of moving to the anti-glare but as far as function, this cover has done its job.
