Apple now says you can use alcohol wipes to clean your phone, after a decade of insisting it will damage the touchscreen if you use anything other than “a soft, lint-free cloth”.
In an update to its support pages, published on Monday, the company has added a specific box-out to answer the question: “Is it OK to use a disinfectant on my Apple product?” While the update is not specifically linked to coronavirus, it comes as experts around the world highlight the need for sanitation to prevent further spread of the virus.
“Using a 70% isopropyl alcohol wipe or clorox disinfecting wipes, you may gently wipe the hard, non-porous surfaces of your Apple product, such as the display, keyboard, or other exterior surfaces,” the company says. “Don’t use bleach. Avoid getting moisture in any opening, and don’t submerge your Apple product in any cleaning agents.”
Users had previously been warned that disinfectant wipes may damage the oleophobic coating on the screen, which helps keep them free of fingerprint smudges.
