No I don't see the point and have never used them. In the first half of the smartphone era phones would accumulate microscratches but it took a couple years before they became distracting to me and that was around when I replaced phones anyway. Since, idk, 2016-ish? the screens are resilient enough that they don't scratch in a way that's noticeable while using it, only if you're specifically looking for scratches. Sand is the big exception, I basically keep it in a ziplock at the beach. Otherwise I don't worry about it much. I don't really think they meaningfully improve your chances when you straight drop the phone. I try not to drop them.
