Hyderabad, (Telangana) [India], August 30, 2025: FridayStyle.in has launched its Apple Watch Screen Protectors collection following months of customer feedback about a common problem of expensive Apple Watches getting scratched despite careful handling. The Hyderabad-based accessories brand has developed hydrogel-based protectors to address what traditional tempered glass couldn’t solve.
Customer Requests Shape Product Development
Yasaswy Tallam started FridayStyle.in, also known as Friday, in 2024 to create quality Apple accessories for Indian users that match Apple’s design standards without the high prices. Apple Watch straps were his first focus, reaching over 60,000 paying customers nationwide.
“Customers kept reporting scratches on their Apple Watch screens, even with minimal use,” Yasaswy explains. “They tried tempered glass protectors, but these don’t fit well because of the curved edges and make the watch look thick. We needed a better solution.”
FridayStyle.in’s team spent months researching and testing different approaches before settling on hydrogel film technology. Hydrogel films bend to match the Apple Watch’s curved display while keeping the device looking clean and slim.
Self-Healing Protection
Friday’s Apple Watch Screen Protectors use hydrogel technology that works differently from traditional protectors. The ultra-thin film maintains 99% screen clarity and becomes nearly invisible after application. The material also has self-healing properties that make small scratches disappear over time.
The protectors handle both scratches and oil smudges, two issues Apple Watch users deal with daily. Installation doesn’t involve the bubbles or alignment problems that frustrate users with glass options.
“We wanted something Apple users would actually enjoy using,” Yasaswy notes. “If a screen protector changes how your device looks or feels, it’s not working properly.”
Building on Success
FridayStyle.in has grown by listening to customer feedback and creating products around real problems. The company introduced Magnetique straps with powerful N52 magnets, something new in India’s Apple Watch market. Their website includes ICE (Immersive Commerce Experience), a tool that shows customers exactly how products will appear on their devices.
Screen protectors mark Friday’s move beyond straps into complete Apple Watch protection. The collection works with all current Apple Watch models, from Series 1 through Series 10, plus SE and Ultra versions.
Designed for Indian Users
FridayStyle.in focuses on what Indian Apple users actually need rather than copying international products. The company’s over 60,000 customer base shows that quality Apple accessories can be affordable when designed specifically for local requirements.
The Apple Watch Screen Protectors collection continues this approach, providing protection that works with India’s climate and daily usage while maintaining the feel Apple users expect.
“Every product we launch solves a real problem our customers tell us about,” Yasaswy concludes. “Screen protectors are just the latest example of listening to our community and turning their concerns into solutions.”
