Maintenance
- Cleaning: Regularly clean your case and phone screen with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials that could damage the case or screen protector.
- Inspection: Periodically inspect the case for any signs of wear or damage, especially after significant drops. Replace the case if its protective integrity is compromised.
- Port Covers: Ensure the charging port cover is properly sealed when not in use to prevent dust and debris from entering.
Troubleshooting
- Screen Protector Bubbling/Unresponsiveness: If the built-in screen protector causes bubbling or reduces touch sensitivity, ensure your phone screen is perfectly clean and free of any other screen protectors before re-installing the case. If issues persist, some users opt to carefully remove the built-in screen protector and use a separate, high-quality screen protector directly on their phone.
- Wireless Charging Issues: While the case is designed to be compatible with most wireless chargers, ensure proper alignment of your phone on the charging pad. If charging is inconsistent, remove the phone from the case and test wireless charging directly.
- Difficulty Removing Case: The case is designed for a tight, secure fit. To remove, use your thumb and forefinger to gently pry open the disassembly gap at the bottom corner and gradually work your way around the edges.
