Does it get to looking better? I just put mine one. Back looks *okay* I guess. Front doesn't have anything under there, and the bubbles are out. It just looks kind of patchy for lack of a better word. I've always used screen protectors. I think in the past maybe Griffin ones? Whatever adhered by static that the Apple store sold; A firm plastic piece. I don't mind the stickiness of the plastic, and I don't mind if it looks like there is a screen cover. But I don't like the uneven glare/reflection/patchiness for lack of a good word to describe it. It has only been on a few minutes. Does it take a while to adhere and look better?
I did not like that I had to put something wet onto the phone. That scares me. Unless this dries and looks a lot better, I will be sorry I did this and really hope it will come off without marring the glass.

I believe that is normal and can take up to 48 hours to disappear. I took mine off... it didn't mess up the glass.
I'll be getting the BodyGuardz dry application screen protectors.. They come out Friday.
Zagg IS is terrible. I requested a refund... I'm going to purchase BodyGuardz.
Got a 20% off coupon from Facebook.
Order from Amazon instead (Beach Audio). It was $17.39 for the full body set shipped.
I'm going to send the IS back. I have the IS screen cover for 3g and had no problems. For some reason the protectors for the 4 won't stay on. I've successfully installed IS on 3g so I know I'm installing these correctly, but I can't stand have to clean and reinstall constantly.
I'll look at BodyGuardz dry on friday.

Ya, the screen definitely does not look the same with the invisibleshield on it. I have it on my iphone 4 and it makes the screen look dimmer. I compared my iphone 4 to another one that lacked a screen protector. It was easy to tell that the invisibleshield made the retina display lose some of its luster. I was kinda pissed off at that b/c I paid 35$ for invisibleshield, and apparently it's not invisible.
What are some good cases that will actually fit with the invisibleshield on it? I want to take alotta care of this b/c the Asurion insurance is ridiculously priced. ($12/month + 200$ deductible)
This product is terrible, after settling on my iPhone 4 for a week, the top cover peeled off in my pocket. The corner of the shield has a few wrinkles in it now and it won't lay flat anymore. The orange peel also takes away from the great screen we have. Don't buy! I've requested a refund.
No. The screen still looks fantastic with the IS on my phone. Is it as crystal clear as it would be without it? I would guess not, but I don't have time to worry about such minutiae. I just need it to be protected.
I used water and a dish washing liquid solution to easily install IS. I put the solution in a cup and dipped the pieces in it prior to putting them on my IP4. I found that once on with the soapy solution, it's easy to move it around and attach it precisely. It's a little slippery at first but once you squeegie the bubbles and excess liquid off it sticks right away.
