Cleaning your iPhone

[barkomatic]

damp towel, wipe all over! works great!

After taking a shower I just use the same towel to wipe down my iphone. Works far better than the microfiber cloth.

iKlear + microfiber cloth = clean iPhone

I use my shirt


geesh some of you are anal... there's no way a clean paper towel can scratch your screen

This stuff is magical. It's great for TVs, laptop screens, desktop monitors, iPhones, iPods, everything pretty much. It's amazing and makes stuff look like it just came out of the box. It's what I use to clean my iPhone, to answer the question.

That's what I use. The cloths are fantastic.

If it's an 'emergency' when I'm out and about, it's my trouser leg or edge of someones tshirt.

Zymol car wax keeps mine pristine! (once a month)

Oh wow, never thought of that. I've got some Carbon Zymol wax in the fridge.

A combination of iClean + Microfiber cloth one a week added to the Knomo case I got which has a fluffy inside that it pretty good at wiping the screen each time you pull the iPhone out

(Although I second the original reply of not putting it in food!)

i use Monster ScreenClean©®™ and a microfibre cloth on the front and thats about it

Anyone know if its possible to buy replacement wipes that came with the iPhones?

There are tons of places to get a small microfiber cloth, as long as you're ok with it not saying "iPhone" on it.

I have a microfiber couch and it cleans the screen in a few swipes. If I'm out I usually use whatever piece of soft clothing is on me.

Just wondering how many of you clean your iphone. I mean surely it gets plenty dirty from being handled so much. I mean with the contact to your hands, face, food, pockets, tables, etc etc. it must be a breeding ground of bacteria, not to mention just whenever the appearance becomes dingy.

So do you ever clean it? And how do you clean it? I mean u clearly can't use water, or at least not much. In the past I have mostly used my breath to wipe the front, and a little bit of my saliva to wash off the back. (probably not the most sanitary options)

So what do you think is the best way to clean your iphone? I'm basically looking for some tips here.

I get it detailed at my local car wash. The hot wax makes it look brand new.

no need to clean the screen if you have a Crystal Film (Anit Glare)... the thing doesn't even show a smudge.

At work I just wipe the white iPhone vigorously against my pants. Now that I think of it, this might look really bad.

When I'm home sitting at my iMac, I use either the cloth that came with the phone or the one that came with the iMac.

After my 5yr old plays games on it in the car (so cute how he dismisses all my texts) I'll use a slighty damp dish towel. I'm sure this is dumb, but it's not like it's really wet, but it does a good job removing the sticky mess left by my son. Now I just want to know what that crap on his hands is...

I usually use a cloth with some Mr sheen on the back to make it nice and shiny . For the front I sometimes use some window cleaning stuff (Just a little bit though!)
