I keep my phone in my pocket when not in use and wipe it on my jeans if
it seems dirty. I guess that's not what the pros would say but I figured
that it's gorilla glass and shouldn't scratch. Plus most jeans are made
from cotton which is pretty soft stuff, at least after they've been
through a bunch of washes. That said, the modern iOS screens have
oleophobic and hydrophobic coatings so don't be using any chemical
cleaners like windex or alcohol as that will start to strip the coating.

Oh, I see. Well, I usually try to get as much dust off of my screen
with a dry microfiber cloth that I mentioned earlier and avoid using
any wet wipes, etc, but again, all of this probably comes down to your
personal preference, but I don’t think any harm will be done either
way if you are aware of the coating that I mentioned.

Hi,
I usually use the iKlear moistened wipes for cleaning screens.
What’s the difference you might ask?
to me it’s not only the amount of moisture as these have less and
what liquid is used dries almost instantly. It’s also tailor made not
to conflict with the coating others have mentioned. I would think
that baby wipes given their original intended purpose would have more
liquid present on them than other sorts of moistened cloths for the
stated purpose.
I also only go to them as a last resort if there’s a speck of dirt or
something I can feel that a dry microfiber cloth doesn’t disperse.
I hope that helps.

*Subject:*Cleaning IPhone screen, perhaps an obvious question
This probably to most of you is gonna seem like a really dumb thing
to do, but I'm curious, not so much if you all think it's a good
idea, as much as how many of you all do this same exact thing. I did
this the other night when my mom was up in my room, and she just
about strangled me, saying how bad of an idea it was. Not sure why
though. I've done this now for so long, and every time, it's never
caused dammage.
So, here's my question. How many of you, when your screen gets
really dirty will actually take a fully moisted babywipe straight
from it's container, and apply it to the bare screen? These I'm using
are Huggy's non scented, non lotion. They don't have powder, nor
allo or anything in them. So, I can't imagine why it would be that
bad. Now, if they did? That would be another story. What do you all
think. Based on the fact they don't have any of that stuff, can you
see any reason why this would be a dumb move?
