Appreciate the guide, but the adhesive was way stronger than described. I can live with some heat damage, but following this as written led to a cracked screen that no longer functions at all. For me, the corners were especially tough. Multiple reheatings seem much more appropriate, especially since it’s nearly impossible to apply strong, steady force with one hand while doing something that requires surgical precision with the other.

"The screen adhesive is very weak and you should not need to re-apply heat." Might be worth revisiting that part. I feel it is very misleading.

On another note:

To me, it's Kafkaesque how the iOpener instructions are filled with stern warnings—don’t puncture it, don’t reheat before 10 minutes—but then completely handwave the one thing that actually matters: the microwave wattage. ChatGPT tells me this is a U.S. food thing. Still, as an EU citizen, it feels like a weird disconnect from iFixit's usual standard, where everything else is treated with an extreme level of detail.
