I noticed the air bubbles but have also observed that the bubbles have dissipated over time. ??? Why??? V. Jones

had no problem with bubbles. Lined up one side on the long side of the phone and let it drop. After that I took a credit card and ran along the entire surface.

I didn't get any bubble when i used the screen protector. Actually, took some pain... I cleaned the glass with spray available for cleaning computer screen and then put on the screen protector starting from one side and observing that no bubbles are formed. Once it is there, in case any bubble is there, smoothen it till one of the nearest edges. The bubble will go away.

Still safer with the screen protector. Worth it. Eliminate air bubbles with a flat plastic (e.g. credit card) by pushing them to the edges of the protector before removing outer cover.

My application of the screen protector is clear without distortion. Your case sounds like an air bubble. Recommend carefully lifting the corner nearest the distortion and reset the shield where there distortion is located. Make sure ther are no air bubbles.

I have a regular screen protector on mine and don't have any issues. BUT - if the screen protector is markedly thicker that a standard protector, you might have issues with it. I guess I would try and see what happens. Sorry that sounds like bad advice. The whole tempered glass thing sounds thick. Make sure you can return it if it doesn't work. Good Luck!

I've only had it on a few days now, but I haven't had any problem with bubbles yet, the only problem I've had is at work I have to take my driving gloves off before using phone (i'm a truck driver) and before I put it on I didn't the screen would read heat through the gloves

I had no issues with air bubbles when I applied mine; seems like you're making it more complicated than it need be...

Hello Marilyn, Please try to use a case that barely reaches the edges of the phone to prevent the bubbles from appearing. If you have any further questions, please feel free to contact us. iTech

There's a tinted green layer on the screen protector which yois removed the bubbles. but I found it was still uneven. So I took off the screen protector that comes which the case altogether. It's much better now...I figure as long as u have an actual screen protector on ur phones screen u should be good. Maybe I will write a review and post some pics.

Hello David,I have no clue what went wrong! I would suggest using a hair drier to slightly warm the screen protector and gently work the bubbles out. My screen went on perfectly the very first time, Good luck.DB

I had no trouble installing the screen protector. I studied the video on the manufacturer's website and followed their instructions. I was able to install the screen protector easily on the first try and with no bubbles. I can't tell I have a screen protector on my device unless I look carefully at the area where the camera lens cut-out is. (I'm not sure I answered your question b/c I don't understand "2nd he's too.")

When putting on screen protectors Use The squeegee tool that comes in the package. Squeegee out as many bubbles and imperfections as you can. Then make sure you follow the arrows (if any) on the screen protector and pull of the top film from the corner they direct you to pull from. There will still be some imperfections, don't worry they will go away in about 2-3 days. /////The body glove has no air bubbles

Not very hard if you have similar experience, perhaps did the same thing for iPhone, all the stuff you need is in the pack. Find a clear and tidy place, make sure your screen is "uncontaminated" at all before you put it on, or you have to use another protector, it is OK if you have air bubble, all you have to do is push it to the any edges.

Hey I had the same thing happen to me, I had just taken off the rubber protective backing to clean it, and it slipped out of my wet hands (cleaner) and onto hard (practically stone) floor! It shattered mostly at the top.. but it still works perfectly , the camera, mic etc.. all good,! I only bought it 3 months ago, for over 200 bucks, and an apple rep said it would cost over 100 dollars to replace screen~ ! Insane!! I am looking and hopefully have found a clip on set with a hard rubberized clear front, and backing, that will protect it, and hopefully keep it from getting worse! The regular screen protectors will not go on do to "bumpy texture" .... Your post did not say if yours is still working or not, but if it is,, I will let you know if it works.. and you let me know if you get anything out of your warranty. Deal? I hope so! Thanks Kimmy

I did not, I simply just stuck it on my screen and used a bubble remover to remove any excess air bubbles. Hope this helps

I will need a wet cloth to lubricate the screen after you've cleaned it well. Then carefully place the screen protected on while it's still moist. Once you've put in in they way you desire, push all the air bubbles out :)

I havent used a screen protector on my iphone since I had a 3s. 4s, 5s, both have never had an issue. Screen protectors are useless on newer phones, they are made with gorilla glass. They are more of nuisance than help.

Nothing you can do. I removed my screen protector and no more bubbles or trapped dirt.

I just got one, and there is not a screen protector built in, Buddy of mine got one too and they just put a cheap PET Film (dollar store quality) screen protector in the package with it. I tried to apply it for him since he didn't know how and even though the screen was perfectly clean, it would not apply without air bubbles. Direct quote from customer service: "The screen protector that comes with the case is no longer a built in one, but a separate screen protector made from PET. Reason for this change is that the old screen protector forms a chamber between the phone and the phone case, thus causing echo issue. We try to solve the problem by using a separate screen protector."
