Using the phone for everything, from social media to online banking, has become second nature. We do a lot on our phones, but nobody else but you should know what that is. Most privacy screen protectors use micro louver technology that allows light from the display to pass through only at certain angles.

Essentially how Venetian window blinds work, but at a microscopic scale. There are quite a few brands that make privacy screen protectors. There are some things you should know before buying one, though. The most obvious advantage of using a privacy screen protector is in the name — privacy. Knowing that any sensitive information is safe from the prying gaze of bystanders is a big positive.

If a spouse, partner, or roommate gets annoyed that you are on your phone all night, a privacy screen protector helps here as well.

Of course, the privacy screen protector also gives you the same advantage as a regular screen protector. It provides a great way to keep the display free of scratches and safe during accidental bumps and drops. Other advantages are often manufacturer-specific. Some screen protectors come with an anti-glare coating, blue light filter, filters to reduce eye strain, and oleophobic and hydrophobic coatings to keep the protector free from fingerprint and oil smudges.

Privacy screen protectors sound fantastic on paper. Unfortunately, the reality is a little bit different. You can overcome the problem by pumping up the brightness of the display, but this will cause the battery to drain faster. Having the brightness too high could also reduce the effectiveness of the privacy filter when the phone is angled away.

This means, that you can use your laptop outside when working, something that is practically impossible without an anti-glare coating. Please note, that the screen will be slightly darker when fitted with a PanzerGlass Privacy screen protector due to the privacy filter.

Some privacy screen protectors, like PanzerGlass Privacy, also feature blue light reduction. Blue light has been proven to affect your sleep negatively and disrupt your circadian rhythm. This occurs because blue light inhibits the release of sleep hormones, causing us to become more awake. That's why scientists recommend, that exposure to blue light at night is decreased.

And this is where privacy screen protectors come in handy. They can reduce the amount of blue light emitted by your device, which decreases the effects of the blue light. You will still get exposed to it, but the effects will be reduced. Without knowing exactly how much the effects are reduced, it is fair to say, that using your phone or tablet at night won't disrupt your sleep as much when using a privacy screen protector. Besides the privacy filter, privacy screen protectors usually feature the same benefits as a regular screen protector.

Of course, this is the case for PanzerGlass Privacy. Find your Privacy screen protector here.
