Great idea. Bad reality. I carefully followed the application instructions but i found it impossible to put on without massive quantities of trapped air bubbles. Trying to fix it only makes it worse. After two failed attempts at readjusting I gave upend threw it away. Goodbye $20. Sad. Still love the iPad. But looks like i will be keeping the screen bare.

Couldn’t wait to get a screen protector for my new iPad, but this one is not going to be it. Have applied many a screen protector in my day, so I know what I am doing. This one seemed to lay down so nicely, but I could not get the bubbles out. Dozens of them, all small, but certainly big enough to show up when the device was on. I knew better than to peel it off an try again, but I finally gave up and did just that. Big mistake. Even more bubbles and then of course the peel backed edge that would not sit back down.
This was actually the second protector I have tried, the ZAGG product was the most difficult thing ever in terms of installation, and once on, was nothing but bubbles. After an hour, crumbled it up and tossed it away.
Is the problem trying to install on such a large surface? Zero for two and still looking.

When removing the paper tabs please make sure they come off without sticking to the screen protector. The paper tabs stuck to one side of the item. I would recommend this item but be careful when removing the paper tabs

Couldn’t wait to protect my new ipad but was hugely unsatisfied with the results of the Belkin protector. It was difficult to line up and once I did, it left bubbles all over. Tried using the smoothing card provided which only left scratches on the shield. Learned that apple now does not endorse these screen protectors, guessing it’s because they don’t feel it’s needed. Think I’ll cut my losses and just be careful with the screen.

I purchased this screen overlay and found it fairly easy to put on. There were only 2 small bubbles where a couple of miniscule particles were trapped between the screen and the overlay film.
I have applied a number these overlays to iPods and digital camera screens and based on past experience, my thought is that those having the ‘major bubble’ issues did not place the adhesive side of the film against the iPad screen.
