My screens are under constant attack when the kids are home from school. Between movie marathons, video calls, and endless rounds of PS5 games, my wall-mounted TV -- supposedly out of reach -- somehow collects sticky handprints and who knows what else.
Maybe you can relate. That's why a good TV screen cleaner is a must-have for every household. But not all screen cleaners are created equal. Most screen cleaners these days are designed to clean all screens, including TVs, phones, laptops, desktop monitors, and tablets. Still, it's a good idea to make sure the cleaner you're purchasing is intended for the device you're cleaning.

Whoosh! earned the top spot on our list of best cleaners for several reasons. And we're not the only ones who think so -- the company claims Apple uses this cleaner in its stores. It's also alcohol- and ammonia-free (meaning it's great for those sensitive to strong smells or chemicals), and it's extremely effective in small amounts, so the 16.9-ounce bottle should last you a while (and includes two cleaning cloths).

If you're eco-conscious, the newest version of Whoosh! uses refillable cartridges, saving up to 75% plastic waste according to the company. There's also a travel-sized bottle available if you need on-the-go cleaning, plus an option for wipes.
With two kids in my house, I'm forever finding handprints and other smudges and smears on my electronics. Whoosh! is the most effective screen cleaner I've used, and I've been on the same bottle for over a year.

It's very compact so it easily fits in a pocket or purse, and also doubles as a phone stand. This cleaning spray works on any screen -- laptop, phone, television, or tablet. While other sprays leave a coating to keep away fingerprints, reviewers say that this one doesn't.

While technically the Oxo Good Grips Sweep and Swipe Laptop Cleaner doesn't contain any cleaning liquid, it still makes our list of the best screen cleaners. It has a microfiber pad to clean smudges and fingerprints, and a brush to wipe dust and dirt away from crevices. We've found it to be ideal for laptop or phone cleaning, but it still holds its own for larger electronics as well (it may just take a while longer because of the small size). You'll need an additional cleaning spray for deeper dirt, but this is an excellent option for light cleaning.

Picking a screen cleaner might sound like a very simple choice, but when you're dealing with expensive electronics that you use daily, it's a decision you want to be sure to get right.
When possible, we used our own experience to build this list. Several of these products are ones we really use, so we were familiar with what worked. For ones we haven't personally tried, we chose reliable brands that had a large number of positive reviews. We also tried to select a range of products to include some for the environmentally conscious and some that weren't sprays.
While alcohol wipes are generally safe for most electronic screens, most manufacturers recommend avoiding them for cell phones. Most phones today have a protective coating on the glass, and alcohol can wear that down, making the device dirtier over time. Wipes that contain bleach should never be used on an electronic device. It's best to stick to wipes designed for screens.
Don't spray liquid directly on an electronic screen. Instead, spray a cloth (preferably microfiber) and wipe the screen. Spraying a screen could lead to liquid getting inside, and especially if it contains alcohol, it could damage components.
Many electronic screens aren't glass, and those that are often have very thin, fragile screens. Glass cleaner should never be used on electronics. Instead, use a cleaning solution specifically designed for electronics or at the very least, a damp microfiber cloth with just water.
Windex makes a convenient cleaning wipe for TVs and other electronics for removing fingerprints, dirt, and smudges. Each wipe is also anti-static to help prevent more dust from settling and protect your electronics from accidental damage. The resealable pack helps keep the cleaning cloths from losing moisture and is great for throwing in a tote bag or in a drawer of your entertainment center for quick and easy cleaning.
The iO Clean spray is formulated for use with TVs, touchscreen personal devices, computer monitors, and even eye glasses. It comes with two different nozzles (a push button and lever) so you can quickly change from cleaning a big-screen TV to your iPhone without wasting cleaning product. And with 16 ounces of cleaning spray, you won't have to worry about needing to stock up.
