I don't have one now, but I used to use one on my first iPhone. I never broke the screen, but the protector I used was just a thin film of plastic and was more to protect scratches. It wouldn't have prevented a break. Now Apple uses a more scratch-resistant glass, and IMO unless you carry it in a pocket full of rocks, it's fine without a protector.

I think the best protection against breakage is to use a case that never lets the screen or a corner sustain impact upon falling. I use a bumper style case, which is super minimal, and I drop my phone more than I would care to admit, but (knock on a whole forest full of wood) so far the bumper has always protected it.

I have a thin one on the screen to prevent scratches. If my boys get really into a game, I put it into a survivor case. But, they are very careful. Probably not necessary. It has never been broken. Iphone 5.

I have a lifeproof case- it's saved my phone a million times!

1. Yes, have one
2. iPhone 4S
3. Never broken a screen
4. The screen protector is not to protect against breaks, it's to protect against scratches. I'm pretty sure the only reason my screen isn't broken is because I have a case for my phone... I've dropped it on hard surfaces quite a large number of times.

I have a screen protector as part of my Otterbox case. I have an iPhone 5. Never broken the screen. I'm pretty careless and drop it pretty much daily and it's still pristine under the case.

Do you use a screen protector? Yes
What kind of phone do you have? One of the Zagg ones
Have you ever broken the screen on your phone? Yes
If so, did it have a screen protector on at the time? Yes, but it was because of how it dropped. iPhone, flat face down onto pavement. At the time (iPhone 4), that was the perfect way to break the screen. Nothing would have saved it. But, the Zagg protector did keep it all together.

Thus far I haven't shattered a screen. My Evo had a rubber case with a screen protector. No issues. I Have scratched my iPhone screen. My 5 was normally in my defender case. Then the silicone got too stretched out. Bought my sister and I the armor cases. She always had cheap cases on hers was worried about it getting wet at work. The screen on hers shattered after she missed her pocket and it hit the parking lot. So much for their 10 feet on concrete claim being about phone protection.

Eta not sure where the picture went. Shattered in the case. Not a scratch on the case
