   I installed the screen saver on my Droid TechSkin Skinomi about 2 weeks, and I must say it is a wonderful addition to my phone. The installation went very smoothly and was not as complicated as other product reviews seem to state. Yes, you need to care about the process and be willing to give your undivided attention for about 4-5 minutes (the time it took me to his installation, clean building).
   
   Setup:
   There are clear instructions on how to install it on your phone, including your phone to be turned off for 12-24 hours. Actually I left my phone during installation and never turned it off, just be careful not to let any liquid spray bottle goes into the hole including the headset speaker. Besides, I was liberal in applying the liquid to the tips of my fingers, which helped immensely in preventing fingerprints. Immediately after installation, I could see a few micro bubbles under the screen saver, but these disappeared within 48 hours, and now can hardly say that there is an additional layer of protection in my Droid.
   
   Use
   TechSkin Before installing, I realized that here was a small ledge or edge between the screen and my Droid is the metal bezel around the display. Occasionally I would be on a phone call with the droid against my ear and I feel this edge digging into my ear, and I found it mildly annoying / painful. The Techskin, after installation, makes this point much less acute as the level of the screen height (only a millimeter, mind you) of the bevel. I think this was an unintended benefit, as my Droid is much more comfortable to hold to my ear now.

   Also, TechSkin screen makes fingerprint Droid much less prone. Before installation, I find myself cleaning droid screen several times a day. Now it seems they do not attract or show fingerprints anywhere near as easily.

   In response to S. Bagherinezhad ‘s review, yes, I did notice the “rubberyness” that was mentioned in his review, but after two weeks of daily use, or I’m not feeling this use, or had the opportunity TechSkin to completely cure and harden to the point that it feels smooth and has zero stiffness or rubberyness her at all. I think that when TechSkin is new and freshly applied, you may feel a bit of rubber, but fades with time. The protection factor, however, does not.

   I recommend this to a friend with a robot? Yes, I certainly would! The ease of application, along with the added layer of protection for one of the best displays there in a touch-based phone is very necessary.

   Tip: When installing, make sure washing hands before spraying it down with the included solution / liquid. In addition, make sure your desk or table is clean and dust free. Take your time and preparation, and TechSkin be very clear in just a day or two. Good luck!

   I’m glad to read the comments of some of the others here.

   Implement the mine, keeping everything wet with spray. My card standards seemed to have sharp edges so using a credit card age to move most of the bubbles. The alignment was not a problem and it fits snugly.

   There are a lot of areas of cloudiness due to micro-bubbles. But three days later, everyone is gone, somehow, obviously, filtering through the film itself. The finish is now 100% perfect and are distinguished from the screen hard by a slight softness of touch.

   To agree with earlier critics, read the instructions, all clean and with a lint-free, much use of spray, do not press too hard with the standards and take your time – no need to rush. Great product.

   This is a great skin. It is well adapted almost hitting all edges perfectly. Like any other screen saver you must have patience and be careful to get a perfect result.

   Not be afraid to spray a lot on the sticky side, and where your fingers wet with the spray applicator (fingers dry and apply the screen saver after a while, so be sure to reapply). Do not force out all the bubbles, just get the biggest and all excess liquid out. The smaller bubbles and micro bubbles will disappear in a week or 2 (I’ve had mine in a week and only a small bubble filled with micro bubbles left).

   Be patient, I think I washed my hands about 5 times while getting everything set up, then continually made sure my fingers were drenched with spray.

   As the protector screen itself, I have received no scratches on it at all, and feels like a high quality protective screen. Very happy with it.

   I bought this skin and was successfully implemented. It worked fine until it ran into a wall and got some paint stains on it. I could not get them out so I thought I would have the advantage of the lifetime warranty. When you go to your website you say the first step is to register the product, but the product registration link is invalid. I emailed and never received a response back. I figured I’d try their return policy and see if that me anywhere. When you click on the return of “link” was a 404 error: URL not found.

   It is clear to me that they have no intention of supporting their products after they are sold. It is a good product, but if the company does not stand behind him, I was in another part of my screen saver. Never do business with them again.

   Let’s get one thing follows: must have patience with this product, both for installation and for it to set.

   If you can handle that, we will continue forward. Almost everything I say reiterates the instructions detailed and optimal results if followed.
   – Read all instructions that come with it before starting the process.
   – Clean the screen. Ideally, wipe with a lens cleaning cloth and then give a quick shot with compressed air
   – Keep your fingers and the skin moist.
   – Use the installation of the card to push the excess air and the solution as you go (more on that later)
   – Yes, the bubbles disappear. However, the more you have, the longer it takes. Wait 2-4 days. Within 24 hours, you will notice that the bubbles have been reduced. They continue to do so until they have completely disappeared. Most of the bubbles that were in the mine only visible when the screen was off, so do not affect the clarity of the screen.

   A team of a few notes: < , br /> – The reason why the instructions tell you to keep the phone turned off for 12-24 hours is due to fluids (ie the solution) and electronics do not mix. Is to allow time to dry in the event that part of the solution gets into any openings in your phone.
   – I thought my install the card was missing. I found it after already installed on the skin when I took the box completely apart. What I did not think at the moment is that a credit card would be a good substitute. That said, I do not use anything to push the excess air and the solution as I went along and still had good results.
   – What the hell is a micro? The best way I can describe them is that they are small areas that do not hinder the feeling of the screen instead of air bags or “blisters” that greatly increase the skin off the screen. You can have a group of bubbles of air that can lift the skin, but they disappear like the others.
   – The skin gives it a bit more “grip” on the screen, not enough for you change the feel of the phone. Actually something like functions for touch, but it feels less smooth in the functions of slides.
   – I did not notice any difference in display quality. Without the skin, the screen has a very smooth, glass surface. With the skin, reminds me of the surface of a glossy notebook screen.

   This is very different from the generic, the seat size, screen savers multi-pack that simply do not work. If you are looking for a product similar to TechSkin Skinomi, check out zagg.
