Privacy screen protectors are dark shields, usually made of glass that you can use on your iPhone. You may have seen one on someone else’s iPhone and wondered what a use case would be. Let’s explore what a privacy screen protector does and the best options if you’re looking to purchase one.

Why would you need a privacy screen protector?

A privacy screen protector is perfect for keeping prying eyes from seeing at what you’re doing on your iPhone. It will not only help prevent damage to your iPhone’s screen but will also protect your privacy from those around you. Great for people on the go, the dark screen makes it near impossible for someone to see your iPhone’s screen while looking over your shoulder. For anyone concerned about privacy who also visits busy public areas, it’s a simple solution to bring added protection to your device.

Know your iPhone’s model before purchasing

Keep in mind, you need to find a privacy screen protector that matches the model of the iPhone you have. How to find your iPhone model:

  • Go to Settings > General > About

Under Name and Software Version you’ll find your Model Name.
