They still install them by me. Not sure why anyone stores would not, as they still sell the ones that don’t come with the self installer and can be installed by Apple only with the special machine. I have had two installed on our iPhone 12 Pro’s and getting another installed on a 12 Pro Max tomorrow.
Got a tip for us?

Belkin Glass Screen Protector for iPhone 12 Pro Max

Several days ago Apple did not have any screen protectors in stock for the 12 Pro Max, so I bought this from Amazon:
Spigen Tempered Glass Screen Protector [Glas.tR EZ Fit] designed for iPhone 12 Pro Max (2020) [6.7 inch] [Case Friendly] - 2 Pack
It came with an installation kit. There's also a video showing the installation process. It worked well.

the one they send u has the easiest alignment tool I have ever seen .
I've now bought a couple of Belkin screen protectors (for my 12 pro and 12 Mini) from the Apple online store and can confirm they come with an alignment kit which makes it super easy to install the screen protectors. Sure, they're not cheap (£30 each lol) but they seem to be very high quality.
These Belkin protectors, shop or self installed are hideously overpriced. There are so many better ones out there on the market for a third of the price
I can’t stress how much you are dead on right about this. I had both the Belkin and Spigen on my 12 pro. The Belkin doesn’t come close to matching the Spigen in terms of fit. I couldn’t believe it given the price differential.
Yesterday got my phone delivered and went to the apple store by house in Denver. Waited in line, got my temp taken and told the guy I just wanted to buy a machine screen protector and have them install it. They said they didn’t have any of the machine ones in stock but had the self install belkin ones. “Awesome, I’m terrible at installing them, if i purchase one can someone help me put it on?“ “No, we are not installing screen protectors without appointments.“ mind you, they are not accepting shopping appoitments for a week. He said I can buy one and put it on myself OR come back in a week. What a joke.
