do you have to keep the plastic screen on the ipad screen for the rest of the case to work?

Not exactly sure what you mean. The iPad is enclosed in the case (like my iPhone is in an Otterbox- it is not meant to be removed regularly), then this whole case connects to the keyboard via the metal strip.

No. The screen is a thin picture frame that snaps into the plastic backing to encapsulate the iPad. Then a rubber outer cover wraps around the back and edges of iPad (in front). Though the iPad will stick it would more easily get dislodged if dropped. And you have the rubber home button hanging there. You should cut this off. Or you could use an Xacto knife to cut the plastic film off the cover frame?I barely notice this cover......only occasional non sensitive button......

I think Nancy's question is about the two layers of plastic screen protection. One of them is clearly intended to be removed and the other seems glued to act as a screen protector. I removed both, using a sharp knife to separate the thicker film from the ipad shell. I am not a big fan of screen protectors, but if I was using it in an industrial or food service environment I would have left it on.

The iPad case has 3 parts. The bottom part, top part, and a rubber cover. The plastic screen is glued to the top cover of the case, which snaps on to the bottom part of the iPad case. You can't use the case without the top part but you could remove the glued screen cover.

It has a hard plastic screen. the problem was with the outer case expanding and not staying completely on.

No, it does not. However you can adjust the auto off in your settings. We love this case still!!!! We do use the plastic clear coat screen protector with it. Can't imagine an iPad for a toddler without it.

No, mine just covered the sides and back. No plastic screen. Not like an otter box

Yes and no. Yes because there is a lip overtop of the screen that protects it if you lay the iPad down on the screen. No because anything else that touches the screen can still scratch it. Hope that helps.

If you are asking if a person needs to secure the screen to the iPad on a screen replacement for an iPad mini the answer is yes. They usually come with adhesive pre installed on glass but I would also put 3m adhesive tape on the frame as well so that it stays down better. Hope this helps.

Yes. When I take the tablet out of the case it works perfectly well. When I put it back I have the same problem with the screen. And the areas of the screen that are affected right underneath the area where magnets are located in the case.

Yeah. I love the way it completely encloses the ipad so that I don't have to worry about anything. And when I drop it the case rarely "swings" open as it falls. So I'm never worried about damaging the screen.

No I have not had any issues with the plastic screen breaking...I am very happy with this item.

No, it does not! It comes up around the edges of the Ipad and does protect it that way!!

Yes. I have protective screens (2 different brands of screens) on both an iPhone and an iPad, and we've had absolutely no problems.

Yes it does when I first saw the case I wondered if it had a plastic part to cover the screen to because it didn't really say that it had.

No. And the plastic "cover" for the main screen is a plastic sheet that sticks to the front. I think it kinda sucks.

No. Only the iPad with a thin cover, like the magnetic one that covers the front.

Take that back. Yes, there are three pieces, the rubber cover, the hard plastic in front for fit and the screen. Just remove screen and the original ipad screen is available.

Yep. It just clicks on and becomes the back of the whole iPad. I carry the iPad around all day, swinging it this way and that, letting it dangle from my hand while using both hands to bring in groceries, etc. VERY helpful. But was initially disappointed at having to remove the stand previously on back. Now, just prop it all up.
