What You Need To Do After Shattered Your Smartphone Screen?

Many people have broken their smartphone screen before. I am sure it is a heartbreaking experience that you want to get rid of. And... Yeah.. I shattered my iPhone screen too not once, but twice in A YEAR!

Here are some tips for you when it comes to dealing with your cracked smartphone screen.



1. Don't Take Anything Off

If you have a screen protector on your smartphone / iPhone already, keep it on! You’re going to end up pulling off some of the glass off the touch screen if you pull it off right away. In certain cases, the smartphone screen is shattered even there is a screen protector on it, due to the huge impact that broken the phone, pieces of glass will stick to the back of the screen protector.

There is no point to remove the screen protector as you won’t be able to put it back on, further more, you might not be able to use your smartphone at all after you pull out the screen protector because you’ll make the cracked screen even worse. So, remember, don’t remove it. However, if you think your smartphone screen is just fine, it's just the screen protector is cracked, then, just spend a few minutes looking closely at the cracks to check is there any real damage to the device's screen. If the screen protector is cracked and the screen is OK, then you are safe to remove it.

* Applying adhesive tape to the screen protector before removal will help to limit glass shards from dropping everywhere.



2. Using Transparent Packing Tape




People are usually pretty lazy when it comes to replace their iPhones screen or smartphone screen this is probably because you might need to without your device for several days and of course.. The repairing cost. Whether or not you decide to replace the smartphone screen or just continue to use it, adding an extra layer of transparent packing tape will help keep glass shards from going everywhere.

It will also keep the cracked screen from cutting your fingers when you try to use your smartphone! This trick will allow you to use your iPhone/smartphone for a couple more weeks until you get it repaired.



3. Adding Screen Protector on The Cracked Screen

Apply the screen protector can help to conceal small cracks on your smartphone screen. But, if the iPhone screen is severely damage, adding the screen protector won’t hide the damage much, However, it will still allow you to use your device’s screen for a much longer period compared to using packing tape.

Using the screen protector is probably a worthy low cost alternative, otherwise, get your smartphone screen replacement / iPhone screen replacement done before the screen becomes worse and affect your daily usage.
