HOW TO DISINFECT YOUR PHONE

For most of us, it’s easy enough to heed advice to avoid gripping stairwell railings. But what about the phones we handle all day? Yes, your phone is covered in everyday germs and with the presence of the Novel Coronavirus, disinfecting your phone and electronic devices are a necessity. Here is how you can do it:

How to clean shared computers, keyboards, remote controls, and mouse

First of all make sure to unplug your devices (and remove batteries if possible) before you attempt to clean them.
Never spray your laptop directly.
Never use paper fiber materials like a tissue or a paper towel, as they’re more abrasive and can leave scratches.
Different computer manufacturers have different rules about what cleaners are allowed. You should be able to wipe down the outside case and the keyboard with an alcohol-based disinfectant wipe. Let them dry completely. (Lenovo suggests using a soft cloth dampened with rubbing alcohol to clean the keyboard, making sure not to drip liquid into any openings.) Apple just updated its support page to say that you can clean your Apple products with 70 percent isopropyl alcohol wipes or Clorox disinfectant wipes. You may consider getting a wipeable cover for your laptop so you can disinfect it without damaging the machine.

How to disinfect a phone or a tablet

Again, always unplug your phone or tablet before attempting to clean it.
Don’t spray your device directly, and avoid getting drips of moisture in any openings.
Prep with a dry, soft cloth to remove debris and fingerprints. Never use paper fiber materials like a tissue or a paper towel, as they’re more abrasive and can leave scratches.
Different phones can handle different cleaners, so consult the manufacturer’s website. For example Google recommends using “ordinary household soap or cleaning wipes” as needed, and it doesn’t specify restrictions on alcohol-based wipes. Apple just updated its support page to say that you can clean your iPhone with 70 percent isopropyl alcohol wipes or Clorox disinfectant wipes.
If you’re concerned about removing the oil-resistant coating, or if you want to go to town with some disinfectant, use a phone case or a screen protector and wipe it down with either a soft cloth dampened with a little rubbing alcohol or a disinfecting wipe. (You can throw the case or screen protector away if it starts to deteriorate.)
