    i like this thing. i got it to protect the screen while i draw on my ipad. it is kind of expensive, but it also comes with a set of brushes that you can download. that made it more worth the high price point.

    I love this screen protector because it allows my Apple Pen to have better grin to my screen, as if you’re writing with pencil on paper. Comes with easy to follow instructions for application and an extra screen protector. I’ve had mine on for over a year now and it’s still in great condition with one still to spare.

    It’s a nice paper like screen cover, but the application is difficult. I’d recommend spraying a liberal amount of 70% isopropyl on the iPad and then putting the protector on. This will allow you to reposition the protector once it’s on the display. Once it’s centered, you can use a squeegee or credit card to move the bubbles and alcohol out to the edges into a cloth. It could use a better application system, like lips on top and bottom to center it better. The included stickers are not enough.

    The PaperLike iPad screen protector exceeded the positive expectations from online reviews. It not only safeguards the iPad screen but also provides a textured surface for artists and designers like me. The company offers detailed instructions for application, and the accompanying tools are highly efficient. In brief, if you're seeking a top-notch screen protector with paper-like qualities, I highly recommend this product.

    I was skeptical about it because of the many alternatives you can buy on Amazon. But bit the bullet and tried it. I’m not sure about first iterations but this one is noticeably better than other cheaper alternatives I tried before. It really is much smoother when using your finger while still providing a very good paper feel to it. And it doesn’t distort the image at all. Definitely shall buy again when needed

    One of the associates in the store helped us find the last one in stock. Following the directions on the box made for a flawless installation and we are very happy with the product and having a spare one is good piece of mind. Thanks for the directions as it alleviated our worst fears of the installation, there were no air bubbles, yeah!!!

    It was a bit difficult to set up initially, but it does its job exceptionally well. It is a much better writing experience than the raw iPad screen. It is however VERY smudgy so prepare to clean up your fingerprints often.

    Luckily my friend who is also a creative type who uses her iPad for work/design turned me onto this. When I first got my iPad, I didn’t have this or a silicon skin for the Apple Pencil. She literally took my phone, and added these to my cart and said “buy these now” after I shared my woes that I just didn’t think I’d ever use the iPad as much as I hoped due to it feeling so weird and my attempts to write and draw looking like kindergarten scribble. Boom! Omg cue angelic voices and bright dazzling light! How something so minimal could make such a huge difference is insane. I sketch, draw, paint, highlight, take notes, you name it! 10 out of 10 ! Don’t hesitate, just get it! You won’t regret it!

    Putting the Paperlike screen protector on my iPad Pro was a game changer! The handwriting is precise, just like writing on a sheet of paper. This screen protector also eliminates glare so you can see the screen better if you’re outdoors. I highly recommend watching this video as you put it on to make sure it’s done properly. https://youtu.be/aDCzKsr1EFU and suggest splitting the cost with a friend or colleague, since it’s 2 for $39. It’s the best $20 I ever spent!

    Smooth, very similar to writing on paper. Exactly what I was looking for. I had expected a hard (glass or plastic) cover, but this one is flexible. It does not inhibit using the iPad without Apple Pencil at all. Makes taking notes easy.

    I feel like it’s as close to actual paper as you’ll get on an iPad. Works great with my Apple Pencil. It’s a little hard to put on but once it’s on, you won’t go back!

    Does the paper feel job perfectly but it does scratch easily so if it’s not a good protector if that’s what you’re looking for. Application process is also tedious.
