It can if used regularly but if used just a very few times to install a glass screen you are OK. The better screen protectors have their own oleophobic coating. Apple suggests a 70% solution the reason for this is the water content slows down the evaporated and improves its disinfectant qualities. With the 99% solution I want rapid evaporation so I have a absolutely dry surface to put the screen protector on.

Just got my cellular iPad (finally) and put on the JETech Glass screen protectors, they didn’t go on with too much issue, but I noticed the edges dont quite adhere how they are supposed to. I tried to put several on and they all had the same adhesion issues at the edges. I know over time this is gonna drive me crazy. Anyone else have this issue with ones from amazon? I have had luck previously with them but now probably will go looking for a different brand. I just worry that all the “cheap“ brands on amazon are the same product under different names. I’d love it if there was a brand with a reliable auto-install tool.
i haven’t had any issues with the esr screen protectors i got on amazon. although i did have several air bubbles after installing. but i was calm and worked them out. it took maybe 20 minutes to slide out and press them in till disappeared. it looks and feels great.
You don't want to use the 99% solution all of the time. On My 14 Pro Max it has the original Spigen screen protector I installed a year and a half ago. for regular cleaning I use something like this.
Question for everyone. For those who have screen protectors installed (ESR/Spigen) how has the fit been with the Magic Keyboard? Does it close properly?
esr here and no issues closing. i’m guessing spigen doesn’t have any issues either.
Decided to order a matte screen protector, just got on for my 15 pro max and I love it. Looks so clean. Just order a motcha or motta from Amazon. Should be here tomorrow
this is what i went with. my 1st one had a small defect in the protector but they sent me a new one no problem
I posted this in another thread.
The Spigen is nice except for the horrible glare. The difference is very noticeable when you look at the glass in the cutout and how low-glare it is vs the rest of the screen.
I ordered another anti-reflective protector that doesn't claim to be matte; it's like the Flolab for iPhones. I have a Flolab on my phone and the glare reduction is noticeable when compared to other protectors.
I have the original Zagg protector for the m4 iPad Pro 13” (without camera:microphone cutout). I bought it from Best Buy when the iPad Pro was released.
Apparently they are prepping a version with the redesign with cutouts. The image is live on Best Buy’s site but the stores I checked didn’t have the one with the cutout and zagg hasn’t issued a stop sale on the ones without.
I like Zagg’s products but this is annoying. Even their own store didn’t have the new ones in stock and didn’t know when they would get them.

I imagine they are both horrible for glare based on my experience with Spigen. ESR is cheaper though.
I heard the ESR is not that good
It is soo hard to find a good screen protector for the iPad.
Which one do you use?
Is it true using glass makes it harder to draw straight lines or something and causes lag with the pencil?
I have my iPad Pro 13" in an Otterbox Defender case. I come with a plastic screen shield. I past years you could peel this plastic screen off but I the the one for the Pro 13" model the frame is so thin that I don't think I can get it off without breaking it.
