How to Clean Your Phone Manually

You can clean your cell phone with a microfiber cloth and cotton swabs, compressed air, or a UV light device. It is important to keep your phone clean because recent studies have shown that there are about 25,000 germs per square inch on most cell phones. That means your phone has more germs than a public toilet.

Cleaning Your Phone Manually
1. Turn off your phone and disconnect any power supply. Remove the case and any screen protector. If you have cracks in your screen do not remove the protector.

2. Remove your battery if you are able to do so.[2] This may, however, invalidate your warranty.

3. Clean your keypad, if you have one, with a dry cotton swab. Clean the interior of your phone very carefully with a clean, dry cotton swab.

4. Replace your battery and reassemble your phone. Using a lint free microfiber cloth wipe off the back of your phone. You may need to dampen a portion of the cloth with a solution of 40 % alcohol to 60% distilled water to clean any stubborn spots.

5. Use the microfiber cloth to wipe your screen using long, vertical strokes. You may also use the dampened portion of the cloth on your screen if some smudges remain. Wipe your screen again with a dry microfiber cloth.

6. Clean the case, inside and out, with the dampened microfiber cloth. Use a cotton swab, lightly dampened with the alcohol mixture, for the corners and any crevices. Allow your case to dry completely before returning it to your phone.[3][4] •Use a high quality leather cleaner for a
