### 1/5 — Broken code

*2021-12-30, version 1.93*

Is this a joke? Website tells me to download the app, the app will not let me select input boxes to register data, clearly bad coding.

Please fix within 20 days so I may register my screen protector.

### 1/5 — YOU GOT SCAMMED

*2021-12-05, version 1.93*

Well. Let this be a lesson that I learned the hard way too. This product is both garbage and a scam. Luckily i’m not learning this before my screen was broken so now I know to buy REAL protection. My product won’t even let me register it says it’s an invalid pin but the pin km entering is from the package.

### 1/5 — Poor experience

*2021-08-30, version 1.91*

App didn’t let me set the date of purchase. Who knows if it will work. Can’t fathom why installing an app is required to make a warranty valid. For all of you in California, pretty sure they aren’t allowed to require registration for warranty validity

### 1/5 — 24hr wait that won’t countdown if you don’t have another screen

*2021-08-28, version 1.91*

1st) it’s a great screen protector 
2nd) the 24hr wait for registration that won’t continue if the screen is not on that page. 
3rd) i’m going to get in contact with the consumer rights association then file a suit.

### 1/5 — not worth the money.

*2021-06-19, version 1.89*

not worth it at all, I spent $70 on it just for it to break within a week.

### 1/5 — Terrible app!!

*2021-05-22, version 1.89*

For the money you spend and the warranty they offer you’d think they could create an app that actually functions! It constantly locks me out because you can’t enter the correct date which leads to me not being able to register my warranty. Please get rid of the app and create a functional link on your website!

### 1/5 — App is horrible

*2021-05-06, version 1.89*

This app is horrible for registration.  I let me enter my pin code and take a picture of my receipt then it said my pin would be activated in 24 hours.  It goes into a counter at this point.  When that’s finished in 24 hours you have no way of knowing if your registered, since I never even had a chance to enter any personal information.

### 1/5 — Garbage app

*2021-04-06, version 1.89*

The product seems to work well enough although nothing crazy has happened to the screen yet.  However, the app is worthless and the company is just trying to pretend they care enough to offer a warranty.  Save the time and trouble, buy a life proof case

### 1/5 — Misleading

*2021-03-29, version 1.89*

Complete rip off. They market this as protection and don’t tell you it is only good for 12 months. Wife teaches and a student dropped her phone cracking the screen 16 months after we purchased it with Cell Helmet. They denied the claim and said coverage only good for 12 months. Don’t waste your money, get an Otterbox Defender instead

### 1/5 — Terrible App

*2021-02-05, version 1.89*

Very glitchy, made me redo things again. I WOULD NOT SUGGEST DOWNLOADING THIS APP IF YOU DONT HAVE TO

### 1/5 — ITS A SCAM DONT BUY

*2021-01-22, version 1.88*

THEY MAKE YOU WAIT 24 HOURS TO EVEN REGISTER THE PIN WHICH I THOUGHT WAS A LITTLE SHADY BUT THEN THEY JUST LOCK YOU OUT RIGHT AWAY

### 4/5 — No hiccups!

*2020-12-30, version 1.88*

I was skeptical at first because of the reviews. I was surprised! I didn’t have any problems. It did freeze or lock for me.

### 1/5 — Scam and horrible

*2020-12-14, version 1.88*

After 94 days of application which was done in store by sales associate, my screen has shattered and has exposed glass. They are denying claim.

### 1/5 — Lock out

*2020-12-11, version 1.88*

I have had the same issue as Nate. Being locked out before I can take the photo. Very frustrating considering a person had already broke their phone, paid a grip to get it back, and now trying to protect it becomes an issue.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2020-11-22, version 1.88*

Straight up will not work. Would give it zero stars if I could.

### 1/5 — They take forever to reimburse

*2020-11-11, version 1.88*

You would think in the middle of a pandemic they would be a bit quicker to respond. I got mine fixed because it was pretty cracked, but it was still useable if I was very careful. I was told to wait up to 10 days. Here I am 10 days later and now support is telling me it could take up to FOUR WEEKS. They have garbage service

### 1/5 — Garbage

*2020-11-01, version 1.88*

This app is garbage. Every time I do the “screen test” is freezes and I have to start all over again. This is a scam!!

### 1/5 — Registration not working

*2020-09-27, version 1.88*

App won’t let me upload picture needed for registration. Have to call support and see what happens next.

### 1/5 — Impossible

*2020-09-26, version 1.88*

From having to enter a long uppercase PIN with a lowercase keyboard, to a 24 hour countdown timer that only counts down when you have the app open, and a non-responsive random screen dot pressing exercise, every step in this app is designed to thwart your efforts to register your product!
I’ve been trying for the last week, and after 3 times having to start over completely in this onerous process, thought I’d gotten to the end - only to have it inform me that it can’t (won’t?) upload my information, despite retrying that step dozens of times.
I’m not sure I’ll be able to get it registered within their 30 day time limit. I can’t decide if this app was designed by an idiot or a genius.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Worst app ever

*2025-04-19, version 2.00*

Complete scam and waste of money makes it impossible to register your device. The app does not function and neither does the website or any way to contact them

### 1/5 — Unnecessary

*2025-03-18, version 2.00*

Why do I have to download an app just to register? That’s ridiculous.

### 1/5 — Worthless

*2024-09-12, version 2.00*

Stay away

### 1/5 — Very difficult to make a claim

*2024-07-15, version 2.00*

When you register after purchase, you have to submit all of the information including a copy of the receipt where it was purchased. You would think after having done all this and having to download their completely useless app, you would not need all this info a second time. I have no clue where my receipt is. Additionally, it’s $10 to replace this crappy $50 protector. I’m better off to buy the cheap ones from Amazon since the quality is clearly no better. 

I will never buy a one of these pieces of expensive junk from this company again.

### 1/5 — Worthless

*2023-03-20, version 1.95*

Tried to enter the PIN multiple times.   Worthless

### 1/5 — Very Problematic, there is NO reason to install an app for a warranty registration.

*2023-03-10, version 1.95*

Nope!

### 1/5 — This app should be reported

*2022-10-08, version 1.93*

You have to set the date and take a picture of the receipt to complete the warranty registration,. The app won’t allow you to set the correct date and take the picture so you can’t register and the company is off the hook for providing their warranty. I can’t believe a company such as this does not know that their app is glitchy. I almost feel this is intentional. They should be reported to consumer affairs.

### 1/5 — App is Terrible and will not let you complete for the warranty

*2022-04-07, version 1.93*

The reason the company can offer a great warranty is the app doesn’t allow you to complete registration.  I got to the picture and date of purchase screen.  The picture was easy but I could not enter the date!  Therefore I did not finish the registration.

### 1/5 — Garbage app

*2022-04-03, version 1.93*

Having the same issues as ppl as 2 years ago? Can’t put in the date.

### 1/5 — Can’t enter purchase date

*2022-01-31, version 1.93*

This app is designed to NOT let you register your iPad.  It has a 24 hour wait time that resets to start over if the iPad goes to sleep or you set it to run in the background.  If I had known this I would never have bought it.

### 5/5 — Best

*2020-09-10, version 1.88*

Best product save my phone

### 5/5 — It works

*2020-05-28, version 1.87*

It works perfect my Altitude pro series

### 5/5 — Perfect

*2020-05-27, version 1.87*

I went in the shop, they installed for me as well and work perfect. I drop many time but the screen not cracked.

### 5/5 — It works just fine

*2020-05-12, version 1.87*

Despite all of the low reviews, I had no trouble at all registering. It took me only about 5 minutes at most.

### 5/5 — Fake news

*2020-05-06, version 1.87*

After reading the reviews I had anxiety about this process but i got it done in 5 minutes (if that) some reviews are probably fake or competitors so just get the app (the only way to register) and just make sure you wait 24 hours. I didnt have this problem but some people are just impatient. Process was a breeze thanks

### 5/5 — I disagree

*2020-03-18, version 1.84*

At first, I didn’t download the app because of the terrible ratings and comments. I went online via my laptop and live chatted w customer support. Ashley noted that the only way to register was through the app. I told her my concern and she noted that sometimes people give a poor rating rather than seek help or resolution. 
She told me to contact her if I had issues. I went back & downloaded the app. It worked perfectly!

### 5/5 — Great app

*2019-11-21, version 1.81*

I love how easy this app made the registration process for me.

### 5/5 — Great Product - Easy Registration

*2019-11-12*

I registered both Liquid Glass and my AltitudeX Case. The process was super easy in the app.

I made sure I waited the 24 hours (as required) - then had my pin card ready for both products, my receipts, and I took the in app photos of my screen. The process was easy and now I’m covered!

### 5/5 — 👌🏽👌🏽

*2019-01-04, version 1.6*

Dropped my phone about 6 times on NYE & my screen doesn’t have a mark 💪🏽

### 5/5 — Love this product

*2018-12-18*

The registration app makes registering the liquid glass super easy! I had it done in minutes! It populates the phone information for you so you don’t even have to try and find it on the phone itself.
