Options for daytime flying and screen glare on tablets?

[Cmar143]

It is pretty tough to make out a big tablet screen during the daytime, especially small objects. I was wondering what kinds of things people are doing to fight the screen glare.

Go back indoors
sit in car
use a "HoodMan" sun shield

Hoodman is the best. Love it!

To beat the glare, I fly it in VR mode with Litchi.

Throw a sheet over your head while flying...

Here are two possible solutions to the glare issue:

The new iPad Pro

I'm looking at this for my iPad Mini 4

Armorglass - Tempered Glass Screen Protectors

Anyone else using it with their Mavic?

... just another $50 to the drone gods!

I use a PgyTech hood, but I'm considering a matte screen protector as well.

Went with the iCarez anti-glare screen protector for a whopping $5.85 for 2 at Amazon. Came in a day early and it is surprisingly decent!

Listen, it's no hood, but I'll never travel with one, just too much stuff/bulk. So this is as good as it gets! Especially considering that I was preparing to spend another $50 for the ArmorGlass.

Crystal Sky is the alternative.
I wonder how the two compare!

I strap a beach umbrella to my bumper and use that for shade. Really helps.

There is a thread already about how to build a simple shade better than Hoodman. I use it, works perfectly to stop the sun glare:

Building a better screen sunshade using physics and reflection (and it's free).

It must be Hell riding down the road though.
