Resolved iPhone XR - install screen protector - case first or protector first ?

[drsox]

Gave up on my red Torro leather case - it's just too big and heavy. So I've gone with an Apple Clear case with a Belkin protector on the screen. Just reading the Belkin HowTo - doesn't answer this basic newbie (to this) question. Do I put the protector on the naked phone or on the phone while installed in the case ? i.e. protector first or case first ?

Don't want to f@*k it up as there's only one chance here.

Cheers

Naked phone.
A bit like wallpapering but harder.
I managed to do it myself and with only 3 bubbles (v small) - impossible to shift, but I did remove 5 others via the scraper.

PS Don't bother looking for the Belkin HowTo video. The URL on the pack doesn't connect and the website doesn't seem to have it.

If you want the best chance of a good outcome, install the screen protector without the case on

I also recommend having the screen lighted up with a white background to help centre the protector if it does not cover edge-to-edge.

Good idea although the Belkin does provide pretty good tools to do the job.
