Quote:Earlier this month, Apple published a support document warning users against the use of camera covers on MacBooks. The support document notes that using a third-party camera cover may damage the MacBook screen.
According to Apple, the clearance between the MacBook screen and the keyboard is designed to very tight tolerances. Hence, closing the lid with the camera cover can damage the screen. Moreover, Apple says that the cover can interfere with the ambient light sensor and can cause brightness or True Tone issues.
