Will bubbles develop months after installation? I've seen some people have had problems with this so should I be concerned? I'm debating between this one and the iLoome screenmate.

I've had mine on for 3 months and no problems. I have it on with the neo hybrid case on my note 3 and I love both of them.

I've had mine for several months and I have not had any bubbles underneath the protector or on the edges. My phone cover (otterbox) covers the edges of the glass protector, so they are not exposed to everyday wear or lifting that may occur. .

I received bubbles 2 weeks after installation. I purchased 2 and it happened both times. It went on perfectly but begin to bubble up and the edges lost adhesion. Great concept if it stayed on.

I dont' think so. I've had mine on for about 6 months now. There was 1 tiny bubble and it disappeared after a couple of days. When I get smudges on it I can clean it with a damp towel. It holds up pretty well!

never had a problem like that. it depends on how you apply or install. i had this screen protector for half a year already and is still very intact. :)

I've had mine so long, (Summer 2013) I need to order a new one. As for issues - NONE. It has no effect on the screen.

C. Brooks, thanks. Your suggestion about tape worked. So obvious I didn't even consider it! I received two replacement units and one had a big bubble that peeled off with tape, but the other had the film perfectly placed again (like it shouldn't come off) and it wouldn't peel off easily even with tape. I hope these players work as well as whoever put the film on the screen.

I've only had it on a few days now, but I haven't had any problem with bubbles yet, the only problem I've had is at work I have to take my driving gloves off before using phone (i'm a truck driver) and before I put it on I didn't the screen would read heat through the gloves

Hasn't been a problem for me. Make sure your screen is spotless before applying though.

I honestly didn't get any air bubbles in mine. Just make sure that its on right and you should have no air bubbles! ^.^

Same here. I just applied it dry. Ended up with some big bubbles. Left it like that didn't want to press on the screen to much.

Did you test the water? Did you run it for a few hours after installation? I thought ours was a bit cloudy too in the beginning but it turns out it was just very small air bubbles. We've had ours 6 months and are thrilled with it!

I have never had any air bubbles and I've been using this product for about 6 months. Maybe it was a defective bottle?

Did you accidently touch the adhesive? Sometimes that ruins that part on most screen protectors. I had one bubble when I installed mine but I pressed down and pushed the bubble to the edge of the screen until it came out. But your saying it isn't flattening out so your piece may be defective because mine was fine and didn't have to flatten out.

Installing - Clean the surface with a fiber cloth. Start from one end and using a credit card or similat start rollling as you press the screen with the credit card right behind. (This was the instructions in another similar product I purchased earlier and works quite well, with almost no air bubbles and dust). Droplets of water seem not to do any harm but have not tried deliberately.

If you do it in the bathroom with the hot water running, you're not going to see any bubble. The steam will make it stick add you lay it, giving no time for air to settle. The more stream the better because it allows you to move the screen protector around until you find the desired position. Once it dries up (about 30 minutes) it won't move. Source? Done it countless times. Good luck!

Bubbles are causedBy dust on the screen even tiny partials .the best bet is to apply the screen protector in a room with high humidity, ie in a bathroom with the shower turned on the water vapor in the air eliminates the dust issue. Just be careful removing the second protective cover,and good luck

No just follow the directions that came with the sheild and you are good to go. It may take a while for all of the little air bubbles to smooth out but they do eventually all go away. Mine has been on since I got mine with no issues.

Mine did not come with a warranty that I noticed. However it has been bubbling away for over a month now with zero issues. Hope that helps.
