Product Reviews

Great product but instructions/labels need clarification
Maybe it's just me, but for a couple hours today I was trying to apply the wrong plastic film to my ipod...
the actual screen protectors are sandwiched between two plastic "protector protectors" - there are 3 total pieces per set, not 2 as I originally thought, and the middle one (the one that doesn't have a small sticker tab attached to it) is the one that should go on your ipod. So I spent my time trying to apply one of the outer plastic sheets - i was surprised at how sticky it was and how hard the air bubbles and dust particles were to get out...i was about to give up when I discovered my error...

Anyway, the actual protector is very easy to apply - got it on the first try with no problems and no visible air bubbles or dust particles, and I quickly retrieved the other 4 from the trash bin. It's not designed to be an anti-glare film - it's just like the ipod touch's own screen, and doesn't affect viewing the screen at all. I know there are cheaper screen protectors out there, but this comes with a microfiber cleaning cloth and is definitely made specifically for the ipod touch. Considering you get 5 in the package, this is a pretty good deal.

I hope this saves at least one person some frustration...

very good overall
These screen covers are slightly small for the new second generation ipod touch but doable if it's in a case that covers the edges anyway.

The quality of the cover is great...forget it's even there - all works perfectly and looks great with it on.

My one gripe has to do with the directions, which were very confusing and the labels referred to in the packaging did not match what I received...I called Griffin and they were very helpful...the bottom line is the screen protector itself is sandwiched between two other layers...a thin, sticky clear film that looks a lot like other screen protectors I've had in the past...but this is not it...you peel this off by pulling on the larger of the two stickers (the one with a triangle on it), turn what you have left face down on your ipod touch (centered and with air bubbles removed) and then peel the other label off (small sticker that says "remove me") and a top clear film comes off leaving the actual screen protector in place. It's actually pretty cool once I understood what I was supposed to do. And I would definitely get these again and will do so when they come out with slightly larger ones for the 2nd generation touch - till then, I'm happy.

Better instructions needed
I agree with the reviwers who said this is a great product but the instructions are awful. Thank you to those who gave the correct instructions! It made what could be a VERY frustrating evening take only 10 minutes.
Griffin needs to have their instructions written more clearly in ENGLISH and have the diagrams on the product match those in the directions.
