How do you carry this phone without a case since the lens won't fit over one? (Besides, carefully...) will it fit over a screen protector either?

Olio makes a case that flips up an edge to accommodate the clip. But I use the phone so much that I need a Mophie battery case, and don't have the Olio case. As inconvenient as it sounds, I just pop my 5S out if the Mophie whenever I want to use the clip, then slide it back in to the Mophie when I'm done.

you have a micro fiber bag that comes with the lens themselves and ive just installed my screen protector and test if the olloclip lens would fit but it didnt so screen protectors with an olloclip is not recommended

I think the point of this product is to provide a better photography experience, but not act as a permanent feature. I don't think the Olliclip Lens is built for a casual user, but rather to enhance ones photography hobbies. We have grown accustomed to a 'happen now' environment. I consider the twenty second prep time of adding the lens as an investment in a quality photo shoot.

The olloclip doesn't stay on my iphone 5. I carry the olloclip in the small flannel bag it came with. When I want to use it on the phone, I just slip the phone out of its protector (I only have it in a minimal rubber thing around its edge) and slide on the olloclip. Easy-peasy. And the olloclip fits fine over the screen protector.

I tried but could not find one...I used the case they included which opens like a book...I don't care for it a whole lot, but I've gotten used to it. Let me know if you find any other protective cases that fit this phone.

Hi! I have an iPhone 5, and I put the case over it! The sticky ring is very thin, so you'll be able to put the case on it. Still, if you'll use the lense, you'd need to take the case off :)Hope this helps!

The lens needs to be detached, in my opinion - for the best fit. You may be able to close the bag with it attached but I guess it depends what else you are carrying. Hope this helps

No, it only clips onto the phone with no case attached. The lens comes with a half case that it screws into and that clips onto the phone. there is also a tripod that will screw directly into the lens which allows you to do portrait or landscape. I have the Otterbox Defender on my phone, I just take that off if I'm going to use the lens to take some pictures. Trying to just line it up or hold it on there doesn't really work.

You have to remove it for the lens to fit, unfortunately. I wish you could put it over your case because your iPhone is super vulnerable when your case is off.

The sleeve is not a case it is just made to cover the lenses.Open the arms out like you are wearing the glasses.Then take the sleeve and slip one arm through the sleeve.Continue to pull the arm through the sleeve and bring it around the frame and cover the frame and lenses.Now the lenses should be covered with the sleeve and the arms can be folded closed.Basically the lens and frame is covered bit the arms stay outside the sleeve.This basically a poor excuse for a protective case.

I have the same thing. It fits. It doesnt fit perfect but it fits. I put the extra lens on the bottom and the camera on top. I really like this case for hiking its very light and if i drop the camera or get the case wet im not worried as it protects it pretty good.

yeah, i do carry mine in my pocket and the lens is closed. it wouldn't fit in my pocket otherwise. lens closed, dirt and lint can't get in. if i'm on the beach or somewhere that it may get dirty, it's in a plastic bag in my pocket.

Yes you can use the case without the screen protector. It does fit very snuggly. The screen is very flimsy it's kinda cheap. That's the only issues I had with the case was the screen protector. So I to took it off. A whole a lot better. I love it

Hello Alex, The screen protector does not cover/protect the camera lens on the rear of the phone because it will distort the clarity and images of your photos. The purpose of the screen protector is to protect your device from scratches and reduce fingerprint smudges. Have a lovely day~

i'm not sure anything but the normal screen protector would fit under the case, I've just been using the normal one it came with and so far no issues. I am considering updating to an otterbox case though just for better screen protection. The only bummer is that they don't make many cases for this phone style since its already "outdated", so this is the only case I found that protects AND has some style points.

You would probably have to take off the case, it all depends on how the lens sits over the case... I used to take mine off but I discovered that I could actually leave mine on while taking the photo.

Hi, no need to take the back of the phone. This looks like a case that attaches to the back of the phone and the thread for the lens is embedded in that. it's something you can keep on the phone at all times if you wish, it offers some protection too. hope this helps.

Any case has to be removed, doesn't matter whether it covers only the front/back or both. It fits very tight in order for the lens to match the iphone. And to transport it it comes with a small soft fabric pouch. What I do is i have a "sticker" just a transparent protector both for the front and back to protect from scratches and i leave the lens on. It doesn't protect from any falls though.

I'm not sure I understand what you're asking, but this case barely fits around the phone, so you definitely shouldn't try to put it over another case.
