i would like to put one of the round stickers in between my phone and case but i dont want to stick it on my phone directly. does anyone know what material is safe for the phone? maybe a thin plastic film?
Put the sticker onto the case itself.
yeah but it would catch dirt over time and start peeling
this is the immediate “the getting of” to 1 year time period of microscopic damage anxiety then after a year you just care less and less about stuff like touching the back of the glass or having anything exposed that could mark it
true. i just dont want the sticker residue to stay on my phone if i decide to remove it
You should take off the camera protectors. Your camera lenses don’t need extra protecting. They’re of the best-protected pieces of glass in your iPhone, covered with sapphire crystal. Camera protectors you can buy are almost always weaker than the glass your phone already comes with to protect the camera. If you’re able to crack your iPhone’s camera glass, something pretty extreme probably happened as your iPhone is more than equipped to handle drops and some scratchy things confronting the camera glass. Not to mention another layer of glass between your camera lens and the world helps degrade photo/video quality. Overall not worth it.
As a watch guy, I’d like to chime in because there are a ton of misconceptions about sapphire glass. It is used in a lot of watch crystals so that’s where my experience is from. Sapphire glass is harder than the other glass which makes it more scratch resistant than the other glass. That does not mean it is tougher and will be the strongest glass on your phone. Sapphire glass actually cracks fairly easily, it just doesn’t scratch unless you really get something deep.
Putting a plastic cover over your phone cameras is dumb but we should also be accurate about sapphire glass. A lot of these things I’ve learned over the years with watches.
To add another example, if you see a watch or another item with “100 meters water resistance” for example, that does not mean it can go 100m under water. It’s really dumb. They actually don’t recommend swimming in a watch if it has anything less than 100m water resistance. All of these buzzwords and stuff Apple throws around doesn’t fool watch guys. We have all learned about sapphire glass and water resistance the hard way.
thank you. i didnt know that.

Lose the camera protector. It introduces light reflection into the photos. The iPhone lens’s already suffer from light reflection in some situations. The cheap “glass” protectors make the problem much worse. You’re taking your “pro” cameras and essentially making them perform like a mid range phone. To me it makes no sense. But to each is own.
thank you. didnt know that.
Guys, I think there’s a coordinated effort to flood this subreddit with the stupidest sh*t ever…
Stop engaging, it’ll only get worse
Just don’t stick it on, put it in a good position then put on your phone case
I had a little picture of my guinea pig and his brother on the other side in my case but the case is literally falling apart and is currently being held with black tape so i moved the picture to my wallet until i get a new case
What the fuck kind of sticker could ruin glass?
Well, there used to be a case of paper breaking macbooks’ screens when closed, people put a piece of paper on their webcams to prevent spying, it’d break the screens. It’s not crazy to expect this from Apple

I’ve put id cards, paper money, memos, and I have an rfid sticker to get into my office on my 11 pro max. 4 years no damage. Don’t worry about it
