Paperlike Screen Protector V2.1 for iPad Air M2 (2 Pack), Clear, 11"

Even though I carefully followed the online instructions, my first attempt looked awful. So bad that I felt it was not possible to apply the protector to be bubble-free. I am not talking about a small bubble or two but the whole screen being covered in bubbles. How could things be so bad?! I had taken my time. I had followed the instructions.See attached some of my attempts.I contacted the Paperlike Support and although they took a few days to respond, I have to say were excellent and did resolve my problems.A few additional things that I found helped me: a) using steam to take the dust out the air (I boiled a kettle a couple of times, close to where I was applying the protector), b) clean the bottom side of the screen protector before you remove its film ... MoreEven though I carefully followed the online instructions, my first attempt looked awful.

I’m a keen enthusiast of using my iPad Pro for note taking among other things and I do really like handwriting my notes adding sketches as I converse with colleagues. However the glass surface takes some of the feeling when I write notes on a paper notebook.For that reason, I searched online and came across paper like screen protector.I was very reluctant when I placed the order.I’m using it now for over a month, first the installation, although requires someone to watch the YouTube video carefully to better understand the process, it went smoothly with no surprises.The paper like film is completely translucent and I cannot figure out any difference from before installing it.The writing experience is excellent and gives me this nice feeling as if I’m writing on ... MoreI’m a keen enthusiast of using my iPad Pro for note taking among other things and I do really like handwriting my notes adding sketches as I converse with colleagues.

I’ve tried a few different iPad screen covers intending to provide “paper-like” qualities. This one is by far the best I've used.Some "paper-like" screen covers have a rough feel that is intended to provide “toothiness”, or friction, for the Apple Pencil or stylus. That "toothiness" is what simulates the feeling of writing on paper. When that "toothiness" is too much, it can be somewhat jarring when you use your finger on the iPad screen. Paperlike's cover doesn't do that. Instead, it provides a smooth feel when using your finger directly on the screen.That "toothiness" on other covers can also distort the light from pixels on the screen, which can be annoying. It sometimes looks like tiny specs of red, blue, and green on top of the normal screen image. ... MoreI’ve tried a few different iPad screen covers intending to provide “paper-like” qualities.

Paperlike also doesn’t do that.Paperlike has a matte finish that helps block glare but also doesn't overly block the screen you are looking at. Of all the matte covers I’ve used, this one is the best at not hindering my ability to still see the screen and enjoy the iPad's visual clarity.On top of all this, the Apple Pencil writes amazingly well on Paperlike. It really does feel like writing on paper. Just keep in mind you’ll need to replace the Paperlike cover and your Apple Pencil tip on a somewhat regular basis, depending on how much you use it. Artists will need to do so quite a bit. I use the Paperlike and my Apple Pencil to take notes more than anything else, so I probably won't need to replace the cover nearly as often as others.I definitely recommend this cover to anyone looking for a “paper-like” surface for your iPad.
