Why clean an android phone, a tablet or any other mobile?
First of all, it is good to clean your phone or tablet because you can see better. Greasy fingerprints can really smudge the screen. Cleaning the lens of your phone will make for better photos. Cleaning your phone or iPad is safer too. A phone is often a source of bacteria. Consider how often you put your phone down, or where you put it down! Outside too. Disinfecting your phone regularly is a good idea. Cleaning a tablet screen is just as important. It is often used by more than one person. And all those fingers can transfer bacteria.
