iPhone 6(S)/Plus Are Clorox Wipes Safe for Cleaning the iPhone 6? How do you clean?

Stop with all this anti-bacteria stuff. You need germs people. It's what makes your immune system worth a darn. Quite thinking sterile is better.

Put it in my pocket and walk around for a minute. The oleophobic coating does it for me.

Just microfiber cloth (or the cloth that usually comes in your glasses box) for the screen and wipe (those used for kids) for the aluminum back of the phone

A micro fibre cloth and some iklear. A bottle of that stuff has lasted me about 10 years so far. Good for glasses and macs too.

You don't need anti bacterial stuff on your phone unless you work in a hospital or somewhere like that.

Windex + the rough back of a sponge. Works every time.

 

[techiebug]

Just use a moist cloth then wipe again with a dry cloth

Steel wool and bleach. Then dry it in the microwave oven.

Horrible advice, that did not work well at all

I use this:

A little pricey but it lasts long and is amazing. I use it for anything glass or plastic. Even some things that are not glass or plastic. For the iphone it makes the surface very slick and helps further resist fingerprints. 100% non-toxic (I use it to clean the outside of my fish tank and outside and inside the hood of the tank. No worries if some accidentally sprays inside).

Did it cause any bending?

Sorry, couldn't resist

I have a screen protector on so I wipe the screen down (with Clorox wipes) throughout the day.

Eventually everyone will learn to ignore TC and his/her subtle yet annoying troll tendencies.

I don't know, this is at least a legitimate question.

I put in front of my face and go "HA" and wipe it on my shirt, LOL.

Get hooked by marketing lures much?

No need for this, special fruit wash spray, etc. Spit and shirt. Clean. Done.

 

[MacGurl111]

I just use my underwear after there's a few dribbles of afterpee making it nice n damp. A quick wipe and good as new!

This is gross!

How do you guys clean your phone? Say if your friend with oily hands eats a snack then touches your phone and hits that touchid button or screen. What is the best way to clean it without damaging anything or being too harsh on it or taking off the oleophobic coating?

I simply use a microfiber cloth (bed bath & beyond) and wet it, wring it out and wipe the phone down. I then dry it off with with a dry cloth. I just use tap water and the cloth is damp, not wet. I usually wipe it off each night like this.

Isopropyl alcohol 70%, lightly wipe with clean microfiber cloth.

Much less expensive than Clorox wipes, and does the same thing: remove grease/oil, kill most bacteria and viruses.

For the most part I agree. Except I stupidly let patients in the hospital use my phone when I need to use google translate. And even if I know a certain bug can't be transmitted on a fomite (e.g. Mycobacterium tuberculosis,) I still get grossed out and soak it with sanitation wipes.
