I get a completely waterproof case because of the front screen cover and for the most part that helps me with the dust and everything. Because I just have to clean it off once or twice a day and it's pretty good. Although I would suggest probably get a screen cleaner as in the spray and what wiping it off with a microfiber towel when you clean off your screen so that that way. It's less noticeable, at least at the time, and I mean with the waterproof case, it's not very noticeable at all
1. Use a Matte or Anti-Fingerprint Screen Protector: Matte screen protectors are specifically designed to reduce fingerprints and smudges. They also reduce glare and are great at repelling dust and oils from your fingers. Look for high-quality options as cheaper ones may reduce screen clarity.
2. Microfiber Cloth with a Cleaning Solution: Keep a microfiber cloth handy and consider using a cleaning spray made for electronics. A 70% isopropyl alcohol solution mixed with distilled water can work well. Just spray the solution onto the cloth (not the screen directly) and wipe in gentle circles.
3. Anti-Fingerprint Coating: Some products add a hydrophobic and oleophobic coating to your screen, which helps repel oils and dust. Brands like Nano Magic and Invisible First Defense offer such coatings, which can be applied periodically.
4. Wash Your Hands Regularly: Oils and dirt from hands are a major source of screen smudges. Washing your hands or using hand sanitizer before handling your device can help reduce fingerprints.
5. Use a Stylus or Touchless Navigation: To avoid touching the screen directly, you could use a stylus if your device supports it, or try gestures like Air Actions (if you have a compatible device) to reduce screen contact.
6. Avoid Over-Cleaning: Excessive cleaning can remove the oleophobic coating on screens over time, which makes them more prone to fingerprints. Stick to gentle, infrequent cleanings with appropriate products.
It's pretty much unavoidable with fingerprints even with a screen protector because of the oil your prints leave behind. You could just have gloves on when you use your phone.
