how well does it work with a screen protector? And I have a Kindle Fire HD - would that make a difference?

It's hard to say without knowing what kind of screen protector you are using. Some work fine and others don't work at all with this stylus but that's true with most styluses. The Illumishield protector seems to work very well with this stylus and you can purchase it here on amazon....fortunately it's a very inexpensive protector. The other thing that I found with this stylus is that it works better with screen protectors if they are clean. Use a damp microfiber cloth to wipe the protector and then dry with a clean microfiber cloth. The water will lift any grease from the protector whereas just using a dry cloth alone will only smear the oils into a thin coating across the screen protector. The thin coating of oils from your fingers make the stylus not work as well as it potentially could. Incidentally, I've used the Illumishield protector on a number of tablets and had great success using the hand stylus in conjunction with the screen protector. Hope that helps

It's capacitive just like you touching the screen, so if your fingers work through the screen protector, so will the stylus.

Yes. I have screen protector And it creates a hair more friction - which I like. I also read the pens can scratch your screen over time so the protector was recommended.

I would say yes it covers the kindle fire, but not the HD model.It is also,I found quite difficult to get all the air bubbles out.

Since I don't have that particular protector, I can't be certain. But the stylus simulates the touch of a finger and I suspect that it should work through a screen protector just as it does on the glass.

This case should not interfere with the screen protector. I have a screen protector as well

No, there's not a screen protector per se, but just closing the cover when not in use provides protection. I've not had a problem with scratching and I use my Kindle Fire several times a day.

Actually, with a screen protector, you should be safe. However, I've found a simple rubber tipped stylus -- a give-away item from my local credit union -- actually works better! Whoda thunk?

You can still use a cover with this screen protector. I have the Amazon Kindle cover plus another less expensive one. I prefer the Amazon cover because you can stand it portrait or landscape.

I don't use a screen protector, however, in my opinion the way this keyboard attaches to the iPad, I don't think it will be a problem unless the edge of the screen protector is coming up...

Yes, it works very well with the screen protector. I also use it on another device without a screen protector and I discern no loss in sensitivity with the screen protector. Superb stylus, hands down!

I have an HTC One with an Otterbox case it works fine doesn't cause the screen protector to bubble but there is some space in between the screen protector and the plastic protector built into my case.

I would think that you would be able to use the protector and prevent any more damage to your screen. I hope that this will do the trick. Thanks for reaching out. Let me know if this tip helped.

Nope! I really don't think you could scratch it with the correct end if you tried. I also don't think it would work as well with a screen protector, though I haven't tried that. :) Good luck!

I really can't say. The screen protector is thicker than the usual but I have tried several different cover/cases and has no problem with any of them.

I use one of those elastic-like stretchy screen protectors (Ghost Armor, similar to Invisible Shield) and it works just fine. If using those types of protectors, you'll notice just a a SLIGHT resistance due to the elastic-like properties of the surface. However, the typical oils that would normally accumulate on the surface would remedy this symptom. If gliding on bare glass, this stylus glides like a hot knife through warm butter.

I've had the screen protector for a couple months now and I haven't had any issues. I have a wooden back protector and no case idk if you have a case it may make it hotter than if it's naked. Although mine gets warm sometimes I try not to let it get super hot. Hope this helps.

I have a simple slip on case and it worked just fine. Install the screen protector before your case. You can accidentally peel off the the screen protector if you're not careful but it does stick on pretty good.
