Recipe of the Day: How to Remove Scratches from Your iPhone 17 Pro
Surprisingly, it actually works!
A thick mixture of regular salt and water can actually help remove scratches from the iPhone 17, 17 Pro, 17 Pro Max, and iPhone 17 Air.
There’s just one important caveat – this trick only works on glass-backed models. Unfortunately, it won’t have any effect on the aluminum-bodied Pro versions.
9to5Mac contributor Dylan McDonald tested this “recipe” himself – and says it really worked!
When sales first began, the internet was buzzing with headlines like “iPhones are getting scratched!”
But as it turned out, the issue wasn’t with the phones themselves – it was caused by MagSafe display stands, which were leaving marks on demo units. The simple fix? Replacing the stands with new ones.
