Privacy Filter (Angle-Limiting Screen Overlay)

Privacy Filter – Angle-Limiting Screen Overlay

Privacy filter is a special screen privacy film with a thickness of 0.55 mm. It is used to help keep the content displayed on your monitor private by limiting visibility for people looking at the screen from the side.

The filter is a screen overlay that helps mask the data shown on your display from unwanted viewers. It can be used for computers, laptops, smartphones, tablets and other suitable screens.

Included free with the privacy filter:

1. Felt card for pressing the filter onto the screen, shown in the installation guide below
2. Reusable dry cleaning cloth
3. Dust-removal sticker set for cleaning the surface just before application
4. Paper with special adhesive

Measure only the active display area, without the surrounding frame. This helps prepare the privacy filter in the correct size.

Easy installation of the privacy filter

Installing the privacy filter is straightforward. Clean the screen, check the fit, remove the protective tape from the adhesive and gently attach the filter to the display.

Follow the guide below. Each short instruction is placed directly above the matching image, so you can go through the installation without confusion.

Step 1: Clean the screen

Before installing the privacy filter, clean the monitor carefully. A screen-cleaning product and a microfibre cloth are recommended for this step.

Step 2: Wipe the privacy filter

Wipe the purchased privacy filter before application, so the surface is clean and ready to be placed on the screen.

Step 3: Check the fit

Place the overlay on the laptop screen and check whether it fits the display area correctly.

Step 4: Remove the adhesive protection tape

Remove the tape that protects the adhesive part of the privacy filter.

Step 5: Attach the filter to the screen

Carefully attach the privacy filter to the screen, aligning it with the display area.

Step 6: Press the filter with the felt card

Gently press the whole surface of the filter using the felt card included with the product.

Step 7: Remove the front protective film

Remove the protective film from the front side of the privacy filter.

Step 8: Wipe the installed filter

After installation, wipe the privacy filter once again to finish the application neatly.

Step 9: Check the privacy effect

After applying the angle-limiting screen overlay, check the visibility of the laptop screen from different viewing angles.

The privacy filter limits the visibility of the screen for people looking from the side.

Is the privacy filter safe to use?

Yes. The privacy filter helps protect the screen against scratches and dirt, and it also helps protect your on-screen data from other people. It is especially recommended for people who use portable devices in public places.
