Could you be allergic to your iPad?

iPad allergy – it’s a real thing. 

Kids are most susceptible and it’s the nickel in there that starts them itching. Sensitivity to nickel is not uncommon and children tend to be more sensitive to it. For about 16% of us, using an iPad without a case can trigger an itchy skin rash. It’s the same component that has set off a rash of rashes for Fitbit users.

Signs of nickel allergy include rash or bumps on the skin, itching, redness or dry patches that may resemble a burn. If you or your child experience these symptoms after using an iPad or another device, you’ll need a Smart Case which provides overall coverage.
