Pros: holds great so far, sticking and unsticking (that I did only a few times though) works great, the sticky side seems to remain clear of dirt, which is promising.
Cons: it's an enormous PITA to unstick it. It's small and is very tricky to handle, so every time I do this it drops somewhere in the space b/w the lid and the body, and if it's landed the sticky side down (which has happened in 100% of cases for me so far), I needed tweezers to get it from there.
It's equally hard to stick it back, if not harder.
I learned a trick of opening the lid the farthest it can go to handle this op, which lowers the chances of the sticker falling somewhere it'll be a total pain to retrieve it from. However, it's a bit inconvenient if the laptop is on a stand.
Overall: great concept, but needs improvement, considering the price. It'd make perfect sense to have a version with a small non-sticky flap that one could use to hold the sticker when handling it (imagine the shape of a "power" symbol to get the idea).
Thank you so much for your detailed feedback! I hear you — it can be a little tricky to handle CamTag at first. Unsticking the smaller versions takes some practice. I recommend moving the CamTag aside by placing one finger over the sticker and using your fingernail to slide it without actually unsticking it. This way, you have it at hand as soon as you’re done recording and want to cover the camera on your phone, tablet, or laptop again. Please take a moment to watch this short video showing how CamTag works. https://www.tabtag.com/blogs/blog/how-camtag-works
I made prototypes with a non-sticky flap but found that those can get peeled off by accident, look less nice, and have a shorter lifespan. The price is a bit higher because we design and produce locally in Austria rather than relying on mass production in China.
Works as expected. Good choice in colors. My only quibble with the sticker is that it keeps dropping off whenever it is moved. It can be reattached easily, but might get lost easily due to its size. Is there an easy way to clean it so that I can increase its shelf life?
Thanks so much for your feedback! You’re right — the smaller versions of CamTag can lose a bit of stickiness if they’re moved around a lot. The good news is that CamTag is washable: a quick rinse will remove dust and restore its full adhesive quality.
works perfectly, very small, thin, blends in well, and re-usable. leaves no residue as it doesn't use adhesive. but magically sticks and does not come off unless you pull it off.
Hi Austin! Thank you for leaving such a great feedback! I'm glad to hear that CamTag works perfectly and blends in well. I appreciate your support and hope to continue providing you with top-notch products. Thank you and all the best, Volker
The product itself is of good quality, and I’m satisfied overall. The only drawback is that the color did not match my laptop as closely as I had hoped. That said, I truly appreciate the effort made to accommodate my request for a plain design, which was exactly what I was looking for. Because of the slight color issue, my honest rating would be a strong 4 out of 5 stars. Would I recommend this website to others? Absolutely — but I would share my full experience so they know what to expect.
Hi Enirko, thank you for your kind an honest feedback. So far I haven't managed to 100% replicate the light reflection properties of anodized aluminum with print, so depending on the light situation solver tabtag look somewhat lighter or darker. I will keep investigating and experimenting to come closer to perfection. Thank you and best regards, Volker
I have a bit of a mixed feelings about this. I love these little ghosts but they are so tiny and fiddly to use that they fly away and then it is so difficult to put them back on and I don't even have sausage fingers. Also, I have a privacy screen and if I am not accurate when I put the ghost back on, they will fly away when I put the privacy screen. So I don't know. Ghosts are great, but not too good of a solution if you need to take them on an off.
Hi Agnés, thank you for your thoughtful review! Your feedback helps improve CamTag. The smaller versions CamTag can be a little tricky to handle, that's why each CamTag set inculdes 25 adhesive-free privacy stickers in 5 sizes for you to choose from. In case you find it difficult to move or remove a CamTag applied to your laptop, tablet or phone, you can try introducing a sheet of paper between the CamTag and your device to easily peel it off. Thank you and best regards, Volker
Love this little guy haha. I have a MacBook Pro in Space Black so this fits so good!
Thank you Agnes! I'm glad you are happy with the 'black sheep' tabtag your received.
Tabtag is amazing! They are very discrete and blend in well with my MacBook air. I would highly recommend them!
Wow, thank you so much for your kind words, Anne! I put in a lot of thought and love to make adhesive-free privacy stickers that work well on laptops, tables and phones. Best regards, Volker
simple, works, looks good. best option available and customer service is responsive/helpful.
Thank you so much for your kind words, Jesse! We're happy to hear that you are having a positive experience with the CamTags you received. It means a lot to me. Thank you and best regards, Volker
