The next five steps demonstrate the Anti-Clamp, a tool we designed to make the opening procedure easier. If you aren't using the Anti-Clamp, skip down four steps for an alternate method.

For complete instructions on how to use the Anti-Clamp, check out this guide.

The Anti-Clamp applies suction to both the screen and the back glass. To open only the screen, you need to secure the back glass with tape.

Cut two strips of tape, apply them along the long edges of the back of the phone, and fold them over the back glass to secure it. If you have suction tape, fold it over the short edge of the back glass when applying (the edge with the USB-C port).

Make sure the tape is only securing the back glass, and not the screen.
