When the founder of Apagota emailed us about the brand we were dubious but happy to check it out. We’ve tried so many screen cleaners, most of which worked OK but were not particularly great. We were a bit taken aback by the price point, but one application of Alpagota’s Eau d’Écran on our phones, displays, laptops and tablets was all it took to realize that it is unlike every other product we’ve tried. It works perfectly, and now we’re obsessed. Add their custom polishing textile for the full effect. Price is in Euros.
