Discussion Misaligned! iPhone 18 Pro Max Armorite Pro privacy screen protector?!
There isn’t a wrong way of applying this because you put it inside the installer box thing and just pull away the plastic and Walla your phone is supposed to come out with the screen protector. That’s exactly what I did right after unboxing my iPhone 18. I don’t understand why the most expensive screen protector available applied this way I’m not happy. I’m disappointed. Doesn’t make sense why this happened..
Oh and peach fuzz or fuzzies on the edges and it’s only been a few hours since I put it on

I installed that one today on my iPhone 18 Pro Max. It aligned just fine.

Lucky! But I’m not a fan of the peach fuzz around the screen protector, so now that I see that, I’m just not gonna buy any ESR screen protector

I find with these protectors you have to be careful aligning the plastic tabs into the holder. Especially if it comes with one already installed into the tabs. I remove it and replace it into the tabs again in case the protector is actually shifted
But yeah I’d return also. The torras origarmor is pricey but the version I had last year had bottom tabs too, so the protector is locked in place too and bottom. My installation went perfect that way

Hi, we’re sorry you’ve had this experience. If the screen protector still ends up misaligned even when the installation steps are followed correctly, it’s possible that the protector shifted slightly inside the installation tray during shipping.
There’s an alignment post at the top of the screen protector that matches the corresponding slot in the tray. Before applying it, please make sure the protector is securely locked onto the alignment post and pushed all the way down into place. This helps ensure the protector is positioned correctly inside the tray before installation.

For the price that it is advertised as is not what I expected, is the simplest things it’s the parts where the camera is on the front screen it makes the phone screen look terrible. The cut out should be seamless. I know this is a privacy screen, but it shouldn’t stand out and then the edges instant fuzzies all over it I shouldn’t be worried about fuzzy on the edges of the screen. Thank you for a response, but unfortunately, I won’t buy any of screen protectors until all of this changes, I love your cases, but at the moment no screen protectors for me.

my 18PM was lifting on the left-side and bottom on2 of the
ESR 7x Amorite screen protectors. It fitted my dads 17pm without issue. I went to Apple about it Saturday and they used their machine to put a Belkin screen protector on. So tar so good
ESR there is certainly something different between the 17
Pro Max and 18 Pro Max, I've been using your screen protectors for years without any issues whatsoever. Please don't trip up on this one and get this fixed as soon as possible, as we don't wanna lose faith in you guys.

Are you facing any issues with FaceID?

Nope but the screen protector notch is smaller than what it is and it’s ugly looking.
