Carefully lift the edge of the screen protector that is closest to the bubbles, just enough so that you reach them, then as you let go slowly of the edge, push out the air under the protector with a tool, or if you don't have that, a credit card.

You have to be really careful lifting the edge, since it is not an edge-to-edge 3D screen protector. Do not mess up the adhesive under it with your fingernail or else, it won't stick back on and you will have a permanent bubble there.

I don’t that lift and still those bubbles what else can I try ?
 
Nothing now. Should of cleaned the phone properly first, use the tray version next time.
 
Update at&t store failed with the replacement they gave me one free but it’s still so so

Buy a Belkin Screen Protector in a brick and mortar Apple Store and have them install it with their equipment.
 
Never install a screen protector in the first place. They're dumb.

Same could be said for cases, but with OCD, it's too much of a hassle to carry naked.

You should've just tried to push a little bit harder on the screen when you first had the Spigen Glass. I know people said it can't be fixed but it most probably can. It happens to me too and with a little bit of pressure and holding it like that it goes away.

In rare cases it doesn't which is due to bad glue.
