I am thinking about installing gutter screens on my gutters. I've read
several conflicting pieces of advice on how to install them on the
side closest to the roof. Is it better to tuck/adhere the side closest
to the roof under the shingles or lay the gutter screen flat on top of
the shingles?
I'd appreciate any advice.

I believe they are installed under. However I suggest the before you
make that decision, that you check around with neighbors who have situations
like your (same type of trees etc.) and have installed like systems. Many
people find that while the style screens that may work fine in a different
area (different plants) are a real pain when they get them installed, making
cleaning more difficult and not eliminating the need to clean.
