Start by inserting the pick at the bottom edge of the phone, as shown in the photo. Gently wedge it into the seam between the back cover and the frame, ensuring that you don’t insert it too far—the fingerprint sensor cable is inside and can be easily damaged.

Using a slow sliding motion, work the pick along the bottom edge first, gradually moving around the perimeter to weaken the adhesive bond. If you encounter resistance, reheat the iOpener and apply it to the stubborn section for another 30-60 seconds before continuing.

Continue sliding the pick along the edges until the adhesive is loosened for all edges.
