Certainly more often than many menus I have seen. Modern water resistant devices make it easy to just use soap and water. And if it is gross, at least it's my fault and I can do something about it on my own time (I probably wouldn't take a restaurant manu to the bathroom to wash it before I look at it).

Soap and water? You wash your screen with soap and water? I know said device is waterproof but are they designed for soap?

Yeah standard soap you would wash your hands with. Haven't had any problems for many years, and can't think of why I would 🤷. Smells nice too, definitely better than alcohol wipes

soap can and other cleaning products can actually damage the phone's water seals making it less waterproof, so its probably better not to do that

Guess I have been lucky then, but honestly I don't really think I'll stop... To add, even the glue for the skin I have on it hasn't been dissolved, so I think the seals are probably OK at least for now.
