InvisibleShield Glass Elite VisionGuard+ – Did you know there are 10 times more bacteria on cell phones than toilets seats? YUCK! Check out this product available for iPhone 11/iPhone XR, iPhone 11 Pro/iPhone Xs/iPhone X and iPhone 11 Pro Max/Xs Max.  I call it insurance for your phone but now I consider it a safety step too!

Glass Elite VisionGuard+ – A first-of-its kind screen protector that promotes overall digital wellness by combining true 4-in-1 protection that features: Antimicrobial—a new, bacteria-fighting technology that kills 99.99 percent of harmful germs found on device screens. Eyesafe® technology that protects against the damaging effects of exposure to high-energy visible blue light without changing the screen colors or peak resolution. ClearPrint technology that offers a revolutionary oil-dispersing treatment to break up fingerprint oil, allowing light to pass through, making fingerprints and smudges virtually invisible to the eye. Glass Elite, InvisibleShield’s strongest screen protection technology ever!

The average cell phone user touches their phone 2,617 times per day, which means the potential for exposure to harmful bacteria like E. coli, staph, and C. diff and viruses like the flu and  COVID-19 is massive. Studies have also found that cell phones have 10 times more bacteria than the average toilet seat. That means your smartphone, the thing that is constantly in your hands and next to your mouth, is one of the most prevalent sources of spreading infectious germs. Just think about this! YUCK!

Brands like InvisibleShield and Gear4 have solutions to put these tips into action. InvisibleShield screen protectors are infused with innovative surface antimicrobial technology, proven to eliminate up to 99.99% of harmful germs, into its line-up of screen protectors for tablets and smartphones. InvisibleShield screen protectors kill germs upon contact and the antimicrobial technology doesn’t wear off over time. Gear4 has also pledged to promote digital wellness and its case lineup for the Samsung Galaxy S20 is equipped with antimicrobial technology that kills up to 99.9% of surface germs. Both InvisibleShield and Gear4 antimicrobial solutions can be found here.
