You guys are cleaning your phones?

never. never even considered it, actually. it's in my pocket most of the time I'm not using it and I dont let other people touch it.

never

Do what now?

Maybe once every 5 years when I get a new phone. My current one is about 4 years old. It doesn't seem particularly dirty.

Every time I get home and I know I've been touching a lot of stuff (i.e. grocery shopping). I just wipe it down with a napkin and rubbing alcohol.

I just run mine through the dishwasher once a month.

Physically clean it with like a cloth or clean it as in remove pics and apps and stuff?

Never, unless the screen gets too smudgy. Then I'll just lick it.

I wipe mine down every day. I don't use a case and I work in a hospital full of germs.

Never lol

Like... Junk data or the actual device?

I have an app to do the first on it's own whenever junk data gets over a specific size. I clean the actual phone only when stuff gets under the screen protector.

Practically every day. I take public transportation so when I get home I'll use a disinfectant wipe on it to kill any germs. It's a habit that's stuck with me since the pandemic and it's just nice to have a clean phone.

I wipe mine down with isopropyl on a paper towel daily.

At random times, honestly. Usually when I am bored and get the phone out of the case just to see how dirty the sides and back are. Along with that, I clean the display as well, though with only a fiber clothing.

Honestly, once every 3-4 months I take the case out and give it a wipe with the help of isopropyl alcohol. I thought I was dirty, but I'm seeing that I'm one of the cleaner people.

Once every few days I close all apps but that's about it

Maybe twice a month I’ll get that ADD tick to take my case off and deep clean the entire phone, charging port included. That part specifically reminds me of picking belly-button lint.

Somewhere around once a month and/or as needed before that.

Pocket friction seems to work fine.

If it’s dirty, I wipe it with a microfiber cloth. I don’t wash it or anything, after all I’m the only one touching it and I wash hands and keep regular hygiene. If I’d be working in a hospital or other place where increased hygiene would be necessary, I’d do it more often. When I still work in the kitchen, I just left my phone in my locker, washed my hands before my shift (and during of course) and it’s not realy a big deal.

People shouldn’t obsess over germs that much.

Every time it's been outside the house, or as needed (fingerprints etc). I use alcohol-based disinfectant on a piece of soft paper towel.

I just give mine a good lickdown before bed every night.

I take the case off and blow the dust off of on it, wipe the phone with my clothes every come off days, and that's it, no wet wiping, disinfecting etc

Pretty much the same here, but ever since phones became waterproof, I started giving my phone (case and all) a washdown with dishwashing soap

I clean the screen with a microfibre cloth every day. Take it out of the case and clean it maybe once a week, if I remember to do it.

If it gets dirty from cooking while I'm reading a recipe I'll run it under the sink real quick. Gets the flour or whatever off it fast.

I use a microfibre cloth and wipe down the screen/camera lens every 2 days ish.

Maybe once a month I take off the case and give the full phone a wipe down

I just put it in my PhoneSoap when I shower and wipe fingerprint oil off when it's done. I'll clean the charging port and between the case every 2-3 months or if I notice a buildup around the camera cutouts.

A couple of times a week with a tissue soaked in hydrogen peroxide

Every time after the gym, since I've been touching nasty dumbbells. Just rub hand sanitizer on it.
