Just like some other reviewers, it was challenging to get the design to line up perfectly (seemed so wonky at first), but with some finagling I got it to line up nicely. (The silicone is stretchy enough that it’ll eventually cooperate lol.) I used the included adhesive on the top and bottom just to keep my mind at ease, but they didn’t seem completely necessary. I like that the flap at the bottom keeps stuff out of the charge port. Super cute case!
