iPad If I use my iPad with my hands which are very dry and cracked and sometimes bleeding a little on the top of my hand in the winter time will it?

If I use my iPad with my hands which are very dry and cracked and sometimes bleeding a little on the top of my hand in the winter time will it cause liquid damage to the iPad?

It shouldn’t. If you are concerned, just wipe the screen off after you are done.

 

[cdcastillo]

I don’t think so. But, how much do you usually bleed?

 

[HDFan]

Since bleeding implies broken skin which can lead to infection have you considered using a skin conditioner to get rid of the dryness and fissures?

If you notice a fissure which might bleed you can always use super glue to seal it up.

No, it shouldn't cause liquid damage whatsoever.

You cannot be serious.

Note, if your hands are that dry, you might have trouble using the touchscreen. During winter, I often need to use cream on my hands otherwise the iPad wouldn't recognize my touch.

Note, if you use too much cream the screen will be too dirty to accurately trace finger or pencil input.

Nah, I'm using a fancy one (same I use for the face) that absorbs very quickly. The packaging is a pump-style jar so it's actually hard to overdo it (I just use 1 pump).

Besides, fingerprint haze has always been an issue for me on iPads with laminated display. I could clean them and within 15 minutes of use, they're dirty again (no lotion/cream, just normal finger oils).

The non-laminated iPads seem to have more effective oleophobic coating.

I feel for you. My job dries out my hands really bad. I use special hand creams to minimize the cracking and bleeding. Cracked hands also hurt. And like most people are, I am allergic to pain. As for harming your iPad it is highly unlikely to be damaged by it.

Yeah I'm serious.

I think your fingers will fall off, and blood will gush all over the place, and spray all over other phones and destroy millions of phones, sending the world economy into total collapse. It will be the end times.

You're not worried about your skin cracking and bleeding, you're worried about liquid damage on your iPad? Just how much do you bleed?

 

[Lsmachado]

OP makes the strangest usage case posts. Most people would never think about these things imho.

Try Lotil. It's a bit pricey, but goes a long way and works marvels for many people.

Also, reconsider what type of soap you are using. Lots of cracks on fingers are due to using harsh or anti-bacterial soaps that dry out the hands excessively.

Also lack of vitamin B

I get paper cuts on my knuckles during the cold months, but your condition must be more severe.

Norwegian Formula Neutrogena is brilliant for dry skin. 👍🏼

If you gush that much blood for liquid damage to be an issue, you don’t need an iPad, you need a doctor.

 

[joeblow7777]

If your hands are bleeding so much that the blood damages your iPad, you have waaaay bigger problems than a damaged iPad.

That is to say, no, unless you are gushing blood, it shouldn't be a problem.
