Phone Stickers

Stickers for a phone and its case

Phone stickers are the quickest way to make a phone your own. They go on the back of the phone, on the outside of a case, or under a clear case, where the case holds them flat and keeps them clean. They can be changed whenever you change your mind, and a few at a time build into a collection. They suit anyone who likes a phone that looks like theirs, and they make a small present.

The kinds of phone sticker

• Single stickers and sheets of small designs to arrange as you like.
• Puffy and 3D stickers that stand off the surface. These are best on the outside of a case, because under a clear case they push it away from the phone.
• Clear stickers, printed on transparent film so only the design shows.
• Cut-to-fit back stickers that cover the whole back of one model. These are close to a skin: see back films and skins.

Where to put them

Keep stickers clear of the camera lenses, the flash, the microphone holes and anything you press. On a phone without a case, a sticker on the back rubs on every table, so it wears faster than one under a case. Lay a sticker under a clear case flat and smooth, as a bump presses the case away from the phone. If you charge without a cable, think about the middle of the back, where the charging coil sits: Apple says thick and metal cases can stop or slow wireless charging, so a thick or metallic sticker over that spot may do the same.

Matching stickers to a look

Stickers work best as part of a whole look: a cute case with matching cute phone charms, or a Y2K style carried through case, charm and sticker. A plain clear case makes a frame for a collection. For everything to hang from the phone, see phone charms.

Questions people ask about phone stickers

Will a sticker damage my phone?

Peeled off slowly, most come away cleanly. If adhesive stays, a soft cloth slightly damp with water usually lifts it. Avoid solvents and household cleaners, which Apple advises against on an iPhone.

Are stickers safe for young children?

Small stickers can be a choking risk for very young children, so keep the sheets out of their reach.

Can I put a sticker on the screen?

Not on the part you use. For the screen, fit a screen protector instead.
