Clean Your iPad Screen

How to Clean Your iPad Screen

Apple recommends cleaning your iPad in one particular approach through the iPad User Guide (iPad Only Link) that can be found as a bookmark in Safari on your iPad.
They suggest to clean the iPad:

• unplug all cables and disconnect the iPad from any accessories or docks
• Turn off the iPad by holding the Sleep/Wake button and sliding the onscreen slider off
• Use a soft, slightly damp cloth or a cleaning solution like 2 GO but be sure to not allow moisture in any openings in the iPad
• DO NOT use window cleaners. These can damage the oleophobic coating on the iPad screen and reduce the functionality of the iPad over time
• Wipe the iPad in a circular motion and be sure that no sand, dirt, or dust is on the cloth used to whip the screen

The iPad Screen coating is designed to repel oil. That may be why finger prints show up so quickly on the screen. You can easily wipe them off with the lint-free cloth and have the iPad screen looking new and clean again.
As always, clean the iPad carefully and often so that it continues to look great and so that it retains its value over time.
