As mentioned above, tiny pieces of cracked glass are not what we should ignore. When you touch them 5 – 10 hours a day, they may harm your fingers when surfing or even your face when making phone calls.

To temporarily deal with it before you have a chance to replace a new phone screen, try using transparent packing tape to cover the broken surface.
