If you clean your smartphone improperly (with things like rubbing alcohol and paper towels), you risk removing the protective layers on your screen. Safer alternatives exist that are effective. Especially for water-resistant phones, we will teach you the best technique for how to clean iPhone 5 screen.
Wipe surfaces off with a disinfectant or the appropriate alcohol-based cleaner
There’s a good chance that your first impulse after touching a dirty public surface (such as a doorknob or shopping cart) would be to go for the rubbing alcohol. Don’t. If you want to get rid of the oleophobic and hydrophobic coatings that protect your phone’s screen and ports from grease and water, then you should use rubbing alcohol.
Some online resources recommend making your own alcohol-and-water mixture, but correcting the proportions is essential. If you mess up, your phone might be destroyed. The most reliable method for cleaning a smartphone screen is using disinfectant wipes with 70% isopropyl alcohol.
Apple claims it’s okay to use Clorox Wipes and similar comparable concentrations on your phone’s screen, despite previous advice to the contrary.
You may also use a UV lamp like PhoneSoap for daily cleaning. The manufacturer of this UV lamp says that it eliminates 99.9% of bacteria and germs. We are unaware of any tests done in conjunction with this particular coronavirus strain.
Fingerprints may be removed with a microfiber cloth
Because your skin continually produces oils, it’s difficult to avoid fingerprint smudges. If you touch your device even once, you will leave marks all over it.
Cleaning your screen with soft microfiber is the best and safest method. Avoid squirting water straight on the screen and wet a microfiber towel with distilled water before wiping off the screen. The sides of your mobile are also accessible using this manner.
Microfiber screen cleaning stickers, which you can attach to your phone’s rear and remove when you need to clean the display, are another option.
Here’s a tape method for getting rid of lint and sand
It’s easy for lint and sand to get caught in the phone’s tiny ports and the cracks where the screen joins the body.
Scotch tape works well for picking off lint and sand. Roll it up carefully and set it in the slots with the wrinkles towards the speaker. The adhesive tape can help you remove any lint or sand that has been lodged in your phone.
Use a pencil (gently) or try vacuuming the particles with a tiny crevice tool if there is debris in the speaker openings that the tape can’t reach. These tools have a wide range of potential applications, including usage on various compact home appliances and access to otherwise inaccessible places of your vehicle.
Removing Makeup
Makeup may be removed with a moist towel, or you can use an app like Whoosh, designed specifically for mobile devices. The manufacturer claims that its solution is completely screen safe since it lacks the alcohol, chlorine, ammonia, and phosphates that are known to deteriorate the different coatings used in screens.
