Apple say no to screen protectors?

When i bought my new iPhone 5 the guy in apple told me they dont install screen protectors and if i want one installed i have to go to another shop in Bondi Junction. I was amazed that they are told by their managers not to recommend screen protectors as the glass in "scratch proof", which is rediculous as my last 4S screen was scratched VERY BAD. So i went to this shop and they did it perfectly in less than a minute i couldn't believe it. A pretty girl served me and i bought a nice cover off her too. They are in Westfield. I just don't know why Apple are told not to sell screen protectors?!

Do they not sell them or just not install?
I tried a screen protector with my first iPhone 3G, looked like crap after about a month. Peeled it off and have never used one since.

Apple nano tube + zcover screen protector

I just received my nano tube in the mail (purchased from a guy who was selling his extras), and I have to say that I like it better than the zcover case. The click wheel area is thinner and allows manipulation by touch (very useful for me in the car not to have to determine where the clickwheel is), and doesn't seem to be as lint-attracting as the zcover case (mine was grey; others have said that the lighter colors don't attract as much lint).
What worked nicely, though, was taking the plastic screen protector that zcover provided and using it with the apple nano tube. It fits very nicely, and solves the screen protection problem!

I took mine off after I opened and got it going. It probably would have been a better idea to keep it on, but, like you, not a scratch on my nano!

Do Apple Store representatives install screen protectors?

Hi,
I recently purchased a three-pack of screen protectors from Amazon and am disappointed with the bubbles produced from my first four installations (The company sent me a new pack after I messed up completely on the first three). Admittedly, I am not the greatest at screen protector installations, but my fourth protector is bearable. I was wondering, though, if I could walk into an Apple Store (or get a Genius appointment) with an unused protector and have them do a "perfect" installation for me.
Thanks!

You can go to a place on yelp. Just type it in on the website. I got mine replaced for $45 dollars
great idea voids any warranty AND post warranty support from Apple

Will anyone at the Apple store apply my screen protector for me?

I'm not competent or patient enough to figure out how to put the darn thing on. And I'm a perfectionist. Is there any way someone at the apple store will do that for me? That would make my life a whole lot easier.

they probably will but also they probably wont wanna take the same chance of messing it up.

Should Apple Replace Screen Protector on Replaced iPhone??

I'm debating whether or not to make a stink about this, but I have had my iPhone 4 replaced twice since I got it the end of July. Both times it had a screen protector on it. The second time I had literally just gotten the protector in the mail and put it on the phone. I asked them to replace it because it was not my fault the hardware on the phone failed and had to be replaced, but they wouldn't solely because it wasn't an item they carry. First of all, the Apple Store doesn't carry screen protectors?? Really? And second, so if it was an item they carried they'd replace it? I don't understand.
Has anyone had a similar experience or can answer my question whether this is worth pursuing or not? I know it's only like $20 out of my pocket, but it's $20 I didn't have to waste if Apple's hardware hadn't failed, twice.

I believe an Apple store does sell screen protectors, but they may not sell the screen protector you purchased and had installed in the mall. I don't believe an Apple store installs a screen protector when purchased at an Apple store. Regardless, I'm pretty sure this is not covered under the warranty.
And second, so if it was an item they carried they'd replace it? I don't understand.
A good question for this Apple store.

Screen protector or not??

Good day all. I just purchased my iPad and see that Apple is not offering screen protectors anymore. my questions are:
1: Are people using them and if so which one are you using?
2: By using a screen protector against Apple's wishes are we voiding the warranty if there are screen issues?
I look forward to your answers.

*Regarding #1:*
Some people are using them, but NOT to actually protect their screen. For example, the anti-glare protectors are nice not only for their anti-glare feature, but also because they are slightly 'rougher' to the touch, giving a nice tactile feel as you slide your finger across the screen. Also, they make fingerprints less noticeable. So oddly enough, the best feature of anti-glare protectors is neither anti-glare nor protection.
Unlike an iPod or iPhone that lives in your pocket with keys and coins and whatever else, the iPad is more like a laptop. Do you put a screen protector on your laptop?
*Regarding #2:*
No. Absolutely not.
They probably just don't want people to form the impression that screen protectors are necessary so they yanked them from the store. That's my just speculation though.
*Other comments:*
A lot of people claim they don't need screen protectors even for their iphones. They say that their screen has never been scratched. They might be right in most cases... but i personally scratched my last iPhone screen. Besides, like I said above, I like the feel of the rough anti-glare surface.
Also, some people have said that video quality is reduced with these anti-glare protectors. I agree with that. It adds a bit of a shimmer to the video. Personally I don't mind, but that's just me.
Hope that is helpful.

Full Screen protector For iPhone 6

I've noticed a lot of screen protectors only sit on the front and don't cover the whole front face (I'm thinking because of the curve). Anyone know of a protector that covers the full face?

Why don't you check this out it say it has rounded edges for the phone might be the one you are looking for, but I'm not sure check out the review

Has anyone removed the screen protector from Otterbox?

I have the Otterbox on top of Apple's anti-glare screen protector as suggested in this forum. I'm having way too much trouble getting a response out of buttons on the edge of the screen or in the corners. I touch and touch, even press hard but no response. Even getting the phone to snap a picture is near impossible. I have no problems when I remove the Otterbox case, so I know it isn't a screen issue. I love the feel and protection afforded by the Otterbox case and would like to use it. Has anyone removed the screen protector from their case, and if you have, can you comment on the subsequent performance of it? Of note, I use the Otterbox case because I have young kids who use the phone - we don't have a landline. In other words, it's not dust protection I'm looking for, but impact protection. I hate to tear up a $50 case if it won't function anymore.

I removed the screen protector that was part of the Otterbox case and it now works much better. Still have the Power Support anti-glare screen protector on it. Also removed the small cover over the camera lense and now my pictures are more clear. Finally, I removed the covers over the speakers and I can hear the speakerphone again. These mods made the case an A+ for me. A little less protection but much better functionality.

Screen Protector--Essential or Unnecessary?

Doing research online on iPhone screen protectors like the Zagg Invisible Shield, some folks say the iPhone's glass screen is not easily scratched and a screen protector is unnecessary. Others say that a screen protector can inhibit the touch-screen performance. Still, I'm a bit of a klutz and a little anxious to leave my pristine screen naked. (Regardless, I will opt for a body case like the iSkin Solo.)
So what say those of you who have had an iPhone for a while. Screen protector or no screen protector?

From the sounds of it, I've put my iPhone through a year's worth of wear and tear in only 2 months then...
I do look after it, i clean it once a week (it's a white 16gb, and i hate the sight of dirt on it :O) but i have dropped it a few times on concrete and it survived without a single mark (im 6' 1", so its quite a big drop for such a small device...)
I advise precaution for the touch screen, as i know a few people that have quite long and sharp nails. and aslong as you don't put your keys in the same pocket as your phone, the casing should be fine too.
The only reason i see for a case, is basicly as a grease deterrent. after just 3 days of use, the screen is very dirty and there are a few pockets of dirt in the microphone/speaker/sim card slots/holes.but a cotton bud takes care of that.

Does a Iphone 4s come with a screen protector on?

Does a Iphone 4s come with a screen protector on? Also I bought some screen protectors so can the apple store put the screen protector on for me? because it is really difficult to put it on

it does not come with a screen protector. I'm not sure the Apple store will apply the protector but it doesn't hurt to ask.

Each time I connect to my IBM computer it crashes with blue screen error message pops up. Apple say that it's my printer/camera drivers. The problem is with iTunes, it likes to play with all the ports on my comp and conflicts with prnt drivers. How to fix

Does anyone know how to fix this problem without disabling my printer. It's very frustrating. It's either I have my iPad or my printer. iTunes likes to play with the ports on my computer thereby causing a conflict with my printer drivers. Apple should fix this problem, I'm so annoyed.

When this problem first happened, I searched for threads and found a few. See be;ow links:
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1502
Apple say that its a driver problem, but I've never had this problem before so I am not convinced. Another thread, which I can't seem to find, suggests that it is an apple problem - itunes plays with the ports on the company causing conflicts with existing drivers. I isolated the conflict to my new Samsung printer. I uninstalled the Samsung printer driver and then can successfully connect my ipad without the blue screen appearing.
It's not a windows problem. Windows is working fine. Only happens when Ipad is connected. Actually, this first happened after I installed the new version of itunes. I reget installing the new itunes version, but don't know how to reinstall the previous itunes version.

If that does not work... try letting the battery fully drain.
Then Charge for an Hour and try the Reset again.
