Do not substitute the microfiber cloth with soft tissues like Kleenex. These can break during the cleaning process and stick onto the lens or scratch it. The microfiber cloth sold with eyeglass cleaning kits is perfect for cleaning your iPhone’s camera lens.
If your microfiber cloth is not brand new, be sure it’s completely clean. Trapped debris in a microfiber cloth can scratch and damage your device.
Always hold cans of compressed air upright. Do not dispense compressed air upside down or at an angle.
Check your iPhone warranty before you contact Apple. A qualified technician can open your iPhone and clean the screen from the inside. Do not attempt to disassemble your iPhone on your own unless you have extensive experience working with Apple products. Taking your phone apart on your own could damage the device and void the warranty. If you’re still under warranty, Apple technicians may fix this problem at no cost.
Depending on the brand, some cases may be more expensive than others. Consider using eBay or Craigslist to find secondhand cases.
