iPhone screen protectors with maximum privacy
Looking at your iPhone screen can be annoying: others can see your private photos and can even read your passcode. Fortunately, this can be prevented with a privacy screen protector for the iPhone. A privacy screen protector ensures that others cannot view your screen from the side. Only if you look straight at the screen can you read the content without any problems. Such iPhone screen protectors often have some additional functions, such as an antimicrobial coating to inhibit the growth of bacteria or a special coating to prevent fingerprints. We discuss the three most popular brands and a cheaper alternative.

Some screen protectors are available in multiple variants, with and without a privacy filter. For a privacy screen protector you should always have the DARK variant. The name also always says ‘privacy’.
Privacy screen protectors from PanzerGlass
At PanzerGlass you can choose from two product lines: the Classic Fit and the Ultra-Wide Fit, which is a bit wider. You also have special privacy screen protectors. This brand is available at almost all stores and receives high ratings. In addition to the extra privacy, you can expect the same protection as you expect from a tempered glass screen protector. These screen protectors have a 2-way privacy filter, so you can only see the screen if you are sitting directly in front of it. It is easy to use in combination with a case and has a special coating that neutralizes 99.99% of all common surface bacteria and prevents greasy fingerprints. The packaging comes from sustainable forestry and can be easily recycled. You will receive an EasyAligner frame for simple, straight installation.
Privacy screen protectors from Belkin
At Belkin you need the ScreenForce TemperedGlass (in dark version!) if you are looking for a privacy screen protector for your iPhone. Belkin has been making them for years, so you can also go here if you are looking for an older version. The TemperedGlass screen protector for iPhone offers advanced protection against fall and impact damage and prevents unwanted viewing. An antimicrobial coating protects against discoloration, while the touch sensitivity and brightness of the screen remain as usual. You will receive a template with which you can stick the screen protector perfectly. But you can also have this done in the store, including at Apple.
Privacy screen protectors from InvisibleShield
The privacy screen protectors from InvisibleShield (also sold under the brand name ZAGG) are equipped with ClearPrint technology against fingerprints. The Glass Elite Privacy 360 variant has a filter in all four directions, which prevents people from seeing anything on your screen. This works in both portrait and landscape views. You can purchase an extra warranty, which entitles you to one free repair if your screen turns out to be broken.
BlueBuilt privacy screen protectors from Coolblue
Coolblue sells all brands of screen protectors, including PanzerGlass, Belkin and InvisibleShield. But they also have their own brand, which is slightly cheaper. The BlueBuilt Privacy Filter Screen Protector Glass comes with a 5-year warranty. Furthermore, this screen protector has everything you find on the more expensive brands: protection against scratches and bumps, a coating against fingerprints and a design that allows you to continue using your phone case. As an extra, you get a privacy filter. When purchasing this screen protector, you can also opt for a blue light filter.
