1. A screen protector application system for applying a protective film to a surface of a mobile communication device, the system comprising:
- a body defining a cavity configured to receive the mobile communication device, the body having;
a supporting surface defining an upper boundary of the cavity and being positioned outside of the cavity, anda pair of rails raised above the supporting surface and being separated from one another by at least the cavity;
a protective film having an application portion and a backing portion, and a first end and a second end separated by a length of the protective film, the first end configured to couple to the body, with the length extending over the cavity; and
a flange configured to couple to the protective film and being sized to fit between and abut each of the rails when the protective film is applied to the surface of the mobile communication device, to reduce movement of the application portion towards at least one of the rails when the protective film is applied to the surface of the mobile communication device.

Abstract
Devices, methods and systems disclosed herein relate to the application of a protective film on a surface of an electronic device that instantly reduces air bubbles and eliminates the waiting time usually required when using a wet fluid solution. In one embodiment, a flange may be configured to couple to the protective film. The flange may aid in the accurate application of the protective film to the electronic device.
