No downloads, no sign-up, no watermarks - just a pure white page that works on every laptop, monitor, phone, tablet, projector, and smart TV browser. Double-click the preview (or hit the fullscreen button), and your whole screen goes white. Scroll the mouse wheel to fine-tune brightness without touching your system settings. ### White Screen for Zoom Lighting and Video Calls The most popular use of a white screen is as an instant key light. Open this page, go fullscreen, and your monitor becomes a soft, even light source for Zoom, Microsoft Teams, and Google Meet calls. Unlike a bare lamp, a white screen spreads light across a wide panel, which softens shadows under your eyes and chin. For the best result, place the bright screen directly behind your webcam and raise your display brightness to maximum. ### White Screen as a Ring Light Alternative No ring light on hand? A second monitor or tablet showing a fullscreen white screen works as a makeshift softbox for selfies, makeup videos, product photos, and streaming. Move the screen closer for stronger light or farther for a subtle fill. You can also open this page on two devices and light your face from both sides. ### Clean Your Monitor and Spot Every Speck Dust, smudges, and fingerprints hide on colorful desktops. A pure white background exposes them all. Go fullscreen, and every particle on the glass becomes visible so you can wipe the screen properly. Flip to our black screen afterwards to catch the streaks a white background can miss. ### White Screen Test: Dead Pixels and Uniformity A white screen is the fastest first check for a new or second-hand monitor: - **Dead pixels** show up as tiny black dots on pure white - **Stuck sub-pixels** appear as colored dots - confirm them with our red, green, and blue screens - **Uniformity problems** appear as darker or yellowish patches, especially near the edges - **Scratches and coating damage** catch light differently against solid white Inspect the fullscreen white display slowly from corner to corner, then cycle through the other colors. A healthy panel looks perfectly even in every solid color. Want a guided version? Run the step-by-step [white screen test](/white-screen-test/) with on-screen hints, or the dedicated [dead pixel test](/dead-pixel-test/) that cycles every color for you. Need a file instead of a tab? Download a [white screen image](/white-screen-image/) in any size, and try the [bright white screen](/bright-white-screen/) when you want maximum light output. ### Bright White Screen for Light Need plain light? A fullscreen bright white screen turns any device into a reading light, a makeshift flashlight on a laptop, a lightbox for tracing drawings onto paper, or gentle illumination for a dark room. Because it is just a webpage, it works on hotel TVs, spare tablets, and any screen you can point a browser at. ### Download White Background Images up to 8K Use the resolution picker to download a perfectly pure white image at 480p, 720p, 1080p, 1440p, 4K, 8K, or any custom size. White backgrounds are endlessly useful: video editing filler, presentation slides, printable tracing light sheets, product photography backdrops, and app mockups. ### Every Color, One Click Away White is only the start. Switch instantly to black, blue, green, red, yellow, orange, pink, or purple screens - each with the same fullscreen mode, brightness control, and image downloads. Filmmakers use the green and blue screens for quick chroma key tests; the black screen doubles as an OLED-friendly blank display. ### Works Everywhere, Even Offline whitescreen.tv is a lightweight page that loads in under a second and installs as an app (PWA) so the screens keep working without internet. Your settings stay on your device - we store no accounts and no personal data. --- ## Blue Screen Online URL: https://whitescreen.tv/blue-screen/ ## Blue Screen, Fullscreen and Calm One click fills your display with a deep, even blue. Double-click the preview for fullscreen, scroll the mouse wheel to adjust brightness, press Escape to exit. Simple - and surprisingly useful. ### Blue Screen for Chroma Key Before green took over, blue was *the* keying color of film. Blue still keys cleaner when your subject contains green - plants, green clothing, green product packaging. Fullscreen this page on a monitor or TV behind a small subject and you have an improvised blue backdrop for product shots, hand demos, and experiments. ### Looking for the Blue Screen of Death? If you came here for the famous Windows crash screen, we have a dedicated, pixel-accurate prank version: the [Fake Blue Screen of Death](/fake-blue-screen/). This page is the clean solid-color tool. ### Calm Ambient Blue Light A dim blue fullscreen turns a spare monitor into aquarium-like mood lighting for deep work, gaming setups, or a cool-toned photo backdrop. Combine it with our [purple screen](/purple-screen/) on a second device for an instant neon gradient. ### Blue Screen Display Test Pure blue is one of the three primaries you need for a proper pixel inspection. A sub-pixel stuck on red or green stands out sharply against solid blue - cycle through our [red](/red-screen/) and [green](/green-screen/) screens to complete the test. ### A Honest Note on Blue Light at Night Blue wavelengths suppress melatonin more than any other visible light, so we do not recommend a bright blue screen as a night light. For late-night ambiance your eyes will thank you for our [red screen](/red-screen/) instead. ### Download Blue Backgrounds up to 8K Grab a perfectly uniform blue image at 480p through 8K or any custom size - useful as a chroma matte in editing, a bold wallpaper, or a design mockup base. --- ## Green Screen Online URL: https://whitescreen.tv/green-screen/ ## Green Screen, Instantly The classic chroma-key color, one click away. Double-click for fullscreen, scroll to adjust brightness - and any display becomes a green screen. ### An Improvised Chroma-Key Backdrop Point a camera at a monitor or TV showing this page fullscreen and you can key out the background in any editor. It will not replace a lit fabric screen for full-body shots, but for hand demos, product close-ups, puppets, and school video projects, a spare display works remarkably well - zero setup, perfectly even color, no wrinkles. ### Why Green? Camera sensors dedicate twice as many photosites to green as to red or blue, so green footage is the cleanest to key. That is why green replaced blue as the industry default - though when your subject *is* green, our [blue screen](/blue-screen/) keys better. ### Green Screen for Virtual Backgrounds Zoom, Teams, and OBS all detect virtual backgrounds more reliably against an even green surface. Fullscreen this page on a TV or large monitor behind you and edge detection improves instantly - hair, glasses, and gestures stop glitching. ### Green Screen Display Test Solid green exposes sub-pixels stuck on red or blue. Inspect fullscreen, then cycle [red](/red-screen/) and [blue](/blue-screen/) to identify exactly which channel is misbehaving. ### Download Green Backgrounds up to 8K Download a uniform green matte at any resolution up to 8K or custom dimensions - drop it into your editing timeline as a keying layer, or use it to practice chroma effects without any footage. --- ## Red Screen Online URL: https://whitescreen.tv/red-screen/ ## Red Screen, Fullscreen Red Light One click gives you a solid red fullscreen display. A red screen is more than a color test: red light is the gentlest light for dark-adapted eyes, which makes this page a night light, a darkroom lamp, and a favorite ambient backdrop for filming. Double-click for fullscreen and scroll to dim it to a soft glow. ### Red Light for Night Vision Astronomers, pilots, and photographers use red light because it barely affects dark adaptation. Reading a star chart, checking gear at night, or moving through a dark room under a dim red screen leaves your night vision intact where a white screen would reset it completely. ### Red Screen as a Sleep-Friendly Night Light Of all visible colors, red light interferes least with melatonin production. Scroll the brightness down in fullscreen, and a phone or spare monitor becomes a calm red night light for bedrooms and nurseries - no hardware needed. ### Red Light Trend: Film with a Red Glow The red screen doubles as an instant mood light for TikToks, music videos, photos, and streams. Fullscreen this page on a monitor or TV behind you and you get the saturated red-room look with zero equipment. Combine two devices - one red, one purple or blue - for a two-tone neon effect. ### Red Screen Test for Stuck Pixels A solid red field makes stuck and dead sub-pixels obvious. Look for dots that stay black, green, or blue against pure red, then cycle through our green, blue, and white screens to pin down exactly which sub-pixel is misbehaving. ### Darkroom and Photography Uses A dim red screen works as a safelight substitute for traditional darkroom work and as a red fill light for creative portraits. Photographers also use the fullscreen red field to check a camera or scanner's color response. ### Download Red Backgrounds up to 8K Grab a pure red image at any resolution from 480p to 8K, or enter custom dimensions - useful for video editing, red screen wallpapers, chroma effects, and design mockups. --- ## Black Screen Online URL: https://whitescreen.tv/black-screen/ ## Black Screen, Pure and Fullscreen Open a true-black fullscreen display in one click. A black screen is one of the most useful blank screens you can put on a monitor: it reveals panel flaws, rests your eyes, hides idle displays, and saves power on OLED. Double-click for fullscreen, scroll to adjust brightness, press Escape to exit. ### Black Screen Test: Backlight Bleed and Glow The classic monitor test. In a dark room, a healthy LCD should look evenly dark; problems reveal themselves fast: - **Backlight bleed**: bright patches leaking from the edges or corners - **IPS glow**: a silvery sheen that shifts with your viewing angle - **Clouding**: irregular brighter blotches across the panel Go fullscreen on the black screen, turn off the lights, and inspect the edges. Testing before your return window closes can save you from living with a glowing corner for years. ### Dead Pixel and Stuck Pixel Check On pure black, any pixel that still lights up is stuck. Look for tiny red, green, blue, or white dots, then confirm using our white, red, green, and blue screens. A pixel dark on every color is dead; one lit on a single color is stuck and can sometimes be revived. ### Black Screen for OLED Displays On OLED and AMOLED panels, black pixels are literally switched off. That makes a black screen the gentlest thing you can display: no burn-in risk, minimal power draw, zero glow in a dark room. Use it as an OLED screen saver when you step away, or keep it on a phone at your bedside instead of a glowing lock screen. ### Turn Off a Second Monitor Without Turning It Off Multi-monitor setups often need one display dark - during movies, gaming, focus work, or screen recording. Drag this tab to the extra monitor and go fullscreen: instant off, without unplugging cables or losing your window layout. Your desktop icons stay exactly where they were. ### Black Screen as a Sleep Aid A black screen with brightness scrolled low turns a bright bedroom TV or monitor into a dark, silent panel. Pair it with our white noise screen on another device for a better sleep setup. ### Download True-Black Wallpapers up to 8K Download a genuinely pure #000000 black image at any resolution from 480p to 8K, or set custom dimensions. True-black wallpapers look striking on OLED devices, extend battery life on AMOLED phones, and are handy filler in video editing timelines. ### Is Your Screen Black When It Should Not Be? If a computer screen has gone black on its own, it is usually signal or sleep, not the panel: 1. Check the display cable at both ends 2. Press a key or move the mouse to wake the machine 3. On Windows, press Win+Ctrl+Shift+B to restart the graphics driver 4. Try a different input or cable to rule out the port If the screen shows this page, the panel itself works - the problem is upstream. --- ## Yellow Screen Online URL: https://whitescreen.tv/yellow-screen/ ## Yellow Screen, Warm and Bright One click gives you a solid yellow fullscreen - the warmest, coziest of the primary-adjacent screens. Double-click for fullscreen and scroll to dim it to taste. ### A Warm Reading and Ambient Light Yellow light feels like golden hour. Dimmed to a soft glow, a yellow fullscreen turns a monitor or tablet into a warm reading lamp or a cozy corner light - noticeably gentler in the evening than a stark white screen. ### The Porch-Light Trick There is a reason "bug lights" are yellow: many flying insects are far less attracted to yellow wavelengths than to white or blue light. A yellow screen on a tablet makes a decent low-attraction light source for camping tables, balconies, and summer evenings. ### Golden-Hour Glow for Photos Photographers use yellow fill to fake warm sunlight indoors. Fullscreen this page, raise the brightness, and bounce the glow onto your subject for a budget golden-hour effect - or mix it with our [orange screen](/orange-screen/) on a second device for a deeper sunset. ### Yellow Screen Display Test Yellow lights the red and green sub-pixels together while leaving blue off - a useful combination test. A dot that stays dark on yellow but lights on [blue](/blue-screen/) points to a specific channel fault. ### Download Yellow Backgrounds up to 8K Save a clean yellow image at any resolution from 480p to 8K or custom dimensions for wallpapers, slides, and design work. --- ## Orange Screen Online URL: https://whitescreen.tv/orange-screen/ ## Orange Screen, Sunset on Demand A solid orange fullscreen in one click: part mood light, part display tool. Double-click for fullscreen; scroll to adjust brightness. ### Sunset Mood Lighting Orange is the color of firelight and dusk. Dimmed low, an orange fullscreen turns any spare screen into a candle-warm ambient light for evenings, dinners, and reading nooks - with far less of the blue wavelength that keeps your brain alert at night. ### Seeing an "Orange Screen of Death"? If your monitor turned orange on its own, the usual suspects are an HDR handshake glitch, a loose display cable, or a GPU driver hiccup - not this page. Try reseating the cable, toggling HDR off and on, and updating the graphics driver. If this page displays a clean orange, your panel itself is healthy. ### Halloween and Party Backdrop Fullscreen orange on a TV or projector is instant Halloween ambiance. Pair it with our [purple screen](/purple-screen/) on a second display for the classic October color combo, or with the [glitch screen](/glitch-screen/) for something spookier. ### Orange Screen Display Test Orange drives red sub-pixels hard and green partially - another useful pattern for spotting stuck pixels. Complete the check with the [red](/red-screen/) and [yellow](/yellow-screen/) screens. ### Download Orange Backgrounds up to 8K Download a uniform orange image in any resolution up to 8K or custom dimensions - great for warm-toned wallpapers, slides, and video mattes. --- ## Pink Screen Online URL: https://whitescreen.tv/pink-screen/ ## Pink Screen, Fullscreen Pink Light Turn any display into a solid pink screen in one click. Pink light is soft, warm, and flattering on camera, which has made the pink screen a quiet favorite for selfies, streams, and aesthetic room lighting. Double-click for fullscreen; scroll to adjust the glow. ### Pink Light for Selfies and Video A fullscreen pink screen acts as a gentle fill light that warms skin tones and softens shadows. Face your monitor or prop up a tablet in a dim room, raise the brightness, and you get the pink-glow look popular in portraits and beauty videos - no LED panel required. Use two devices for an even wrap of light. ### Aesthetic Room Ambiance Fullscreen this page on a TV or spare monitor and the whole room takes on a soft pink cast. It is an instant party light, a cozy backdrop for photos, and a no-hardware alternative to LED strips. Pair it with our purple or blue screens on other screens for a neon gradient across the room. ### Pink Screen Display Test A solid pink field is a useful addition to color testing: it exposes tint problems and uneven color reproduction that single primary colors can miss. Check it alongside our red, white, and purple screens when evaluating a display. ### Download Pink Backgrounds up to 8K Download a clean pink image at 480p through 8K or any custom size - great for wallpapers, slide backgrounds, video color mattes, and design work. --- ## Purple Screen Online URL: https://whitescreen.tv/purple-screen/ ## Purple Screen, Neon Nights One click, and your display glows a rich purple. Double-click for fullscreen; scroll to set the intensity. ### The Vaporwave / Neon Aesthetic Purple is the backbone of every synthwave setup. Fullscreen this page on a monitor, TV, or projector and the room takes on an instant retro-neon cast - a favorite backdrop for streaming corners, gaming rooms, and party walls. Add our [pink screen](/pink-screen/) or [blue screen](/blue-screen/) on another device for a full gradient wall. ### Purple Light for Photos and Video A purple glow adds drama to portraits and product shots without gels or LED panels. Position the screen close for saturated color, farther for a subtle tint. Two devices - one purple, one pink - create the two-tone look that dominates music videos. ### Purple Screen Display Test Purple lights the red and blue sub-pixels while leaving green off. A dot that stays dark here but lights up on our [green screen](/green-screen/) has a green-channel fault; the reverse points to red or blue. ### A Restful Alternative Deep purple at low brightness is one of the gentler colors for evening ambiance - noticeably calmer than white or blue, though for genuine night-vision-friendly light, [red](/red-screen/) is still king. ### Download Purple Backgrounds up to 8K Save a flawless purple background at 480p through 8K or custom dimensions for wallpapers, design work, and video mattes. --- ## Gray Screen Online URL: https://whitescreen.tv/gray-screen/ ## Gray Screen: The Calibration Neutral One click gives you a solid 50% gray fullscreen - the most professionally useful color a display can show. Photographers, video editors, and display tuners rely on neutral gray because the human eye judges color casts, banding, and uniformity best against it. Double-click for fullscreen, scroll to adjust brightness. ### Gray Screen for Monitor Calibration A mid-gray field is the standard reference for display work: - **Color cast check**: neutral gray exposes any red, green, or blue tint your panel adds - **Uniformity test**: brightness variations and dark corners show up more clearly on gray than on white or black - **Banding check**: smooth gray reveals posterization on panels with weak gradient handling - **Ambient matching**: editors keep a gray screen up while grading to keep their eyes neutral Compare the screen against a known-neutral reference (like a gray card) and adjust your monitor's RGB controls until the tint disappears. ### Grey vs Gray - Same Screen However you spell it, this page shows the identical neutral color. Use it as a calm, distraction-free backdrop, a photography background, or an eye-friendly resting screen between tasks. ### Download Gray Backgrounds up to 8K Download a perfectly uniform gray image at any resolution from 480p to 8K or custom dimensions - ideal for photo editing test frames, neutral wallpapers, video mattes, and design mockups. --- ## Fake Blue Screen URL: https://whitescreen.tv/fake-blue-screen/ ## Fake Blue Screen of Death The most feared screen in computing, now available on demand. One click launches a full-screen, pixel-faithful Windows Blue Screen of Death - frozen at a suitably alarming completion percentage - on any computer with a browser. Press Escape and the "crash" never happened. ### The Classic Prank, Perfected 1. Open this page on the target machine 2. Click Preview to go fullscreen 3. Nudge the mouse into a corner so the cursor hides 4. Retreat to a safe viewing distance The victim returns, sees the sad face and the stop code, and goes through the five stages of grief before touching a single key. Escape (or a click) instantly restores their desktop - and your friendship. ### Even Better on a Mac Because this BSOD is just a webpage, it displays anywhere - which means you can put a *Windows* crash screen on a MacBook or Chromebook. Watching a Mac user try to process a Windows error is its own reward. ### For Videos, Streams, and Presentations Filmmakers and streamers use the fake BSOD as a gag cutaway or a fake "technical difficulties" screen. It also makes a memorable slide replacement in talks about software reliability. ### Completely Harmless Nothing crashes, nothing installs, and no data is touched. It is a static image rendered by your browser. The moment you exit fullscreen, everything is exactly as you left it. Want variety? Send your victim through the [fake Windows update](/fake-windows-update/) first, then "crash" it with the BSOD - or escalate to the [virus screen](/virus-screen-prank/) for maximum drama. --- ## Fake Windows Update URL: https://whitescreen.tv/fake-windows-update/ ## Fake Windows Update Screen "Working on updates. Don't turn off your computer." Nine words that can freeze a whole office. This page recreates the Windows update screen in fullscreen - with a progress percentage you control and a duration you choose, from a plausible 20 minutes to a soul-crushing 4 hours. ### Pick Your Windows Era - **Windows XP**: the nostalgic blue installer for retro setups and vintage machines - **Windows 10**: the familiar spinning dots on deep blue - **Windows 11**: the modern minimalist look on black Match the version to the victim's machine for maximum believability - or deliberately mismatch it on a Mac for a different kind of confusion. ### Craft the Perfect Fake Update Set a starting percentage (a stall at 97% is psychological warfare), choose how many minutes the bar should crawl, and optionally write your own status text. Save the setup and it is ready to launch whenever the moment calls for it. ### The Long Con The update prank's superpower is patience: it does not scare the victim off the machine, it just makes them *wait*. Launch it before a colleague returns from lunch and watch productivity theater unfold. Reveal before any actual deadlines suffer. ### Harmless by Design No update runs, no files change, and the machine never restarts. It is a fullscreen animation - Escape exits instantly. When they realize the "update" was fake, the relief usually cushions the laugh. For a two-act show, follow the update with our [fake Blue Screen of Death](/fake-blue-screen/). --- ## macOS Update URL: https://whitescreen.tv/fake-macos-update/ ## Fake macOS Update Screen The Apple logo, the thin progress bar, the estimated time that never quite arrives - this page recreates the macOS software update screen in fullscreen, complete with a crawl speed you control. ### The Mac Owner's Nightmare Mac users trust their machines. That trust evaporates the moment an unscheduled update appears with "About 37 minutes remaining." Open this page on their Mac, click Preview, hide the cursor in a corner, and let the Apple logo do the psychological heavy lifting. ### Configure the Illusion Choose the starting progress, set how long the bar takes to fill, and customize the status text. A bar frozen just short of complete is the connoisseur's choice. ### Cross-Platform Chaos Because it is just a webpage, the macOS update displays on any machine - putting an Apple update screen on a Windows PC or Chromebook creates a uniquely disorienting moment for anyone who knows computers. ### For Content and Classrooms The fake update makes a clean cutaway gag for videos, a "please hold" screen for streams, and a conversation starter about why we blindly trust progress bars. ### Nothing Actually Updates No software installs, nothing reboots, and the machine is untouched. Escape exits instantly and the desktop returns exactly as it was. Prefer the Windows flavor? Try the [fake Windows update](/fake-windows-update/) - or go straight for the jugular with the [fake BSOD](/fake-blue-screen/). --- ## Matrix Rain URL: https://whitescreen.tv/fake-matrix/ ## Matrix Rain: The Digital Waterfall Green glyphs cascading down a black screen - the most iconic visual in hacker cinema, rendered live in your browser. One click, fullscreen, and any display becomes a window into the Matrix. ### Customize the Rain Adjust the character set, glyph size, and fall speed. Dense, small, fast characters read as "serious infrastructure"; large slow glyphs are pure retro-future ambiance. Save your favorite mix and it loads automatically next time. ### An Ambient Screensaver That Never Gets Old Fullscreen matrix rain on a spare monitor, TV, or projector is instant atmosphere - for coding sessions, cyberpunk parties, escape rooms, Halloween windows, and stream backdrops. The animation is hypnotic without demanding attention, which is exactly what a background screen should be. ### The Full Hacker Aesthetic Building a movie-hacker scene? Combine screens across devices: matrix rain on the wall TV, the [Hacker Typer](/hacker-typer/) on the laptop where you furiously type, and the [hacking terminal](/fake-terminal-hack/) auto-scrolling on a side monitor. Congratulations - you are now unbearable at parties, in the best way. ### Zero Installation, Zero Risk The rain is drawn entirely in your browser tab. Nothing installs, nothing tracks, and Escape returns you to reality instantly - no red pill required. --- ## Hacker Terminal URL: https://whitescreen.tv/fake-terminal-hack/ ## Hacking Terminal: The Self-Running Cyber Attack A terminal that hacks by itself. Open fullscreen and watch scrolling commands, IP traces, decryption progress bars, and access logs stream past as if an operation is underway - no typing required. ### Terminal Hack vs Hacker Typer Two tools, two performances: - **This page** runs on autopilot - a self-scrolling operations terminal that plays like a movie scene. Perfect as a background display or an unattended prank. - **[Hacker Typer](/hacker-typer/)** puts *you* at the keyboard - every key you mash produces flawless code. Perfect when someone is watching you "work." Elite setups run both at once on different screens, with [Matrix rain](/fake-matrix/) on a third for full cinematic saturation. ### The Unattended Prank Because it runs itself, this terminal excels at the walk-away prank: launch it fullscreen on a machine in a shared space and let passersby draw their own alarming conclusions. IT departments have been summoned over less. ### Streams, Videos, and Set Dressing Content creators use the auto-scrolling terminal as B-roll, an intermission screen, and background set dressing for anything cyber-themed. It loops indefinitely and never repeats obviously. ### As Fake as It Gets No commands execute. Nothing connects to anything. The scrolling text is theater rendered in your browser tab, and Escape brings down the curtain instantly. --- ## White Noise for Sleep URL: https://whitescreen.tv/white-noise-for-sleep/ ## White Noise for Sleep A steady, even wash of sound that masks the world: doors, traffic, voices, pipes. Press play, dim the screen, and let a constant acoustic backdrop smooth out the interruptions that wake you. ### Why White Noise Works Sudden *changes* in sound wake you more than sound itself. White noise raises the acoustic floor so the door slam, the neighbor's TV, and the 3 a.m. motorcycle stand out less against the background. Many people fall asleep faster and wake less often with a masking sound running. ### Set It Up for Sleep 1. Press play and set the volume low - background presence, not a waterfall in the room 2. Scroll the brightness down in fullscreen so the screen fades to near-black 3. Plug the device in for all-night sessions The generator runs continuously with no loops or gaps, and the page works offline once installed as an app. ### For Focus and Study The same masking effect that protects sleep also protects concentration. White noise at low volume evens out office chatter and household sounds - a popular companion for studying, writing, and open-plan survival. ### A Note on Babies Sound masking is widely used in nurseries, but follow pediatric guidance: keep the volume modest and place the device well away from the crib. When in doubt, ask your pediatrician. ### Pair It with Darkness For the full wind-down setup, run white noise here and a [black screen](/black-screen/) on any other glowing device in the room. --- ## FBI Lock Screen URL: https://whitescreen.tv/fbi-lock-prank/ ## FBI Lock Screen Prank A stern federal seal, an ALL-CAPS warning, and a computer that appears thoroughly confiscated. This fullscreen prank makes any machine look like it just became evidence - until Escape sets it free. ### The Ten-Second Heart Attack This prank works fast. Unlike a fake update that plays out over an hour, the FBI lock hits its victim in the first second - the seal, the warning, the sudden certainty that they should have read that terms-of-service agreement. Comedy gold, best served to people who will laugh about it. ### Staging It Right 1. Open this page on the target machine and click Preview 2. Hide the cursor in a corner 3. Be nearby for the reveal - this one deserves an audience ### Keep It Kind A scare prank needs a fast punchline. Reveal within moments, pick victims who enjoy a joke, and never run it on strangers, shared kiosks, or anyone mid-crisis. The goal is a shared laugh, not a genuine panic. ### Obviously, It's Fake This page has no connection to the FBI or any authority. Nothing is locked, scanned, reported, or transmitted - it is a static parody screen in a browser tab, and exiting fullscreen ends it completely. If you ever encounter a *real* browser lock demanding payment, that is a scam: close the tab and never pay. Escalate the chaos with the [virus screen](/virus-screen-prank/), or slow-burn instead with the [fake Windows update](/fake-windows-update/). --- ## Broken Screen URL: https://whitescreen.tv/broken-screen/ ## Broken Screen Prank Make any monitor, laptop, or classroom display look convincingly shattered - glass cracks, impact points, and LCD color bleed rendered live in your browser. Pick a damage style, set the intensity, press Preview, and the screen looks destroyed until someone presses Escape. Nothing is installed and nothing on the device is touched. ### Three Damage Styles - **Glass Crack**: classic spiderweb fractures radiating from impact points, like a dropped phone - **LCD Bleed**: dark blotches and rainbow smears that mimic real panel damage - **Hybrid**: cracks plus bleed for the most alarming, most realistic result Every pattern is generated fresh - press Regenerate until the crack layout looks right for your victim's screen, then save your settings for instant reuse. ### How to Pull Off the Broken Screen Prank 1. Open this page on the target computer while its owner is away 2. Choose a style and intensity - subtle single cracks are often more believable than total destruction 3. Press Preview to go fullscreen, then move the mouse aside 4. Wait for the reaction, then tap Escape and take a bow It works on Windows, Mac, and Chromebooks - anything with a browser. For maximum effect, turn the screen brightness up and hide the taskbar beforehand. ### Cracked Screen for Videos and Wallpapers Content creators use the broken screen effect as a fake cracked overlay in videos, a prop for skits, and a startling wallpaper substitute. Fullscreen it, screenshot it, and you have a cracked screen wallpaper matched exactly to your resolution. ### Prank Responsibly - Reveal the joke before anyone starts arranging a repair - Avoid pranking someone mid-deadline or on a machine they need urgently - This is a visual effect only: it cannot and does not damage the display The effect runs entirely in the browser. Closing the tab or pressing Escape returns everything to normal instantly. --- ## DVD Screensaver URL: https://whitescreen.tv/dvd-screensaver/ ## DVD Screensaver: The Bouncing Logo, Reborn The most hypnotic screensaver ever made, running in your browser. Press Preview and the DVD logo drifts across a black fullscreen, ricocheting off the edges and changing color with every bounce - while you wait for the one moment everyone watches for: the perfect corner hit. ### Will It Hit the Corner? The bouncing DVD logo became a cultural moment (thank you, The Office) because a flush corner hit is genuinely rare. The logo has to reach a corner exactly as both its horizontal and vertical travel run out. Our corner counter keeps score for you, so the wait is now a game: leave it running during a party or stream and let the room erupt when it finally connects. ### Make It Yours - **Speed**: from a lazy drift to a frantic ricochet - **Logo size**: small logos hit corners less often - crank the size for more action - **Color modes**: classic pink, rainbow bounce colors, or a neon glow - **Randomize start**: reshuffle the starting position and direction any time Save your setup and it will be waiting next time you open the page. ### A Free Screensaver for Any Screen Open this page on a TV, projector, or spare monitor and go fullscreen: instant retro ambiance for offices, dorm rooms, waiting rooms, bars, and stream intermissions. Because it is just a webpage, it works on any device with a browser - no download, no install, no smart-TV app needed. ### The Nostalgia Is the Point If you grew up watching the DVD player idle screen, you know the feeling. The bouncing logo is the original ambient entertainment - useless, mesmerizing, and quietly competitive. Now it lives in a tab. --- ## Glitch Screen URL: https://whitescreen.tv/glitch-screen/ ## Glitch Screen: Corrupt Your Display (Visually) One click fills your screen with living digital decay - torn scanlines, RGB channel splits, static bursts, and corrupted color blocks that flicker and crawl like a failing GPU. It is pure eye candy rendered in your browser: nothing on the device is actually wrong, and Escape restores order instantly. ### Three Glitch Styles - **Digital**: sharp block corruption and RGB channel tearing, like corrupted video memory - **Analog VHS**: rolling scanlines, color bleed, and tape-static warmth - **Chaos**: everything at once, escalating - the full system-meltdown look Set the intensity from a subtle occasional flicker to constant, screen-wide corruption. ### Glitch Effect for Videos and Streams Screen-record the fullscreen glitch and you have free overlay footage for video transitions, intros, music visuals, and cyberpunk edits. Streamers run it on a second monitor as ambient set dressing; a projector pointed at a wall turns it into instant party or Halloween visuals. ### The Broken GPU Prank A glitching display reads as expensive trouble. Fullscreen the effect at low intensity on a colleague's monitor and watch them wiggle the video cable. Unlike a static image, the live flicker and moving tears sell the illusion completely - until you tap Escape and everything is fine. ### Test How Your Display Handles Motion Fast-moving high-contrast glitch patterns also make an entertaining informal test for motion blur, ghosting, and pixel response on monitors and TVs - flaws that static test screens never reveal. ### Completely Safe The glitch is drawn on an HTML canvas inside your browser tab. It cannot damage the display, corrupt files, or affect the system - close the tab or press Escape and it is gone without a trace. --- ## Hacker Typer URL: https://whitescreen.tv/hacker-typer/ ## Hacker Typer: Type Like a Movie Hacker Hit Preview, mash any keys, and flawless-looking code streams across a black terminal like you are breaching the Pentagon. That is the whole trick - every keystroke pastes the next chunk of pre-written code, so even two-finger typing looks like elite hacking. Press Enter three times fast for the big red-carpet moment: **ACCESS GRANTED**. ### How the Fake Hacking Simulator Works 1. Press Preview to go fullscreen in the terminal 2. Type anything - every key adds a burst of convincing code 3. Triple-press Enter to flash ACCESS GRANTED over the screen 4. Press Escape to exit and return to normal Choose how much code each keystroke produces, pick a terminal theme, or switch on auto-type and let the terminal hack away by itself - perfect as a background for streams, parties, and videos. ### Terminal Themes - **Matrix Green**: the classic phosphor-green hacker terminal - **Amber Retro**: warm CRT amber, straight from the 1980s server room - **Ice Blue**: the cool blue console of every heist movie ops van ### Prank Ideas That Land - Fullscreen it on a friend's laptop and walk away casually - Project it in the office and start typing furiously during a meeting - Use it as a Halloween or spy-party backdrop on a spare TV - Film over-the-shoulder "hacking scenes" for skits and school projects ### For Streams, Videos, and Classrooms Auto-type mode turns the page into an animated hacker background that never stops. Teachers use it to open discussions about how real cybersecurity differs from Hollywood hacking; streamers park it on a second monitor for instant cyberpunk ambiance. ### Completely Harmless The hacker typer is a visual toy. It runs entirely in your browser tab, touches nothing on the device, connects to nothing, and cannot hack anything. The code on screen is decorative - the only thing being compromised is your friends' composure. --- ## Virus Screen Prank URL: https://whitescreen.tv/virus-screen-prank/ ## Virus Screen Prank Turn the browser into a fake incident-response dashboard with flashing warnings, quarantine counters, and keyboard-reactive system noise. It looks dramatic, but it is still just a visual prank running on the page. ### Features - **Keyboard-reactive fullscreen mode**: Type to inject fake console activity while the alert screen is open - **Theme and severity controls**: Switch between crimson, amber, and toxic-green warning styles and choose how intense the outbreak feels - **Custom system label**: Rename the compromised machine to fit the scene - **Live status changes**: Arrow keys change alert levels, Space pauses the scan, and Enter escalates containment ### Keyboard Controls - Type any letters or numbers to add fake operator noise - Up and Down change the alert level - Left and Right rotate the alert theme - Space pauses or resumes the scan pulse - Enter escalates containment and spikes the warning state - Escape exits fullscreen immediately ### Best Uses - Harmless office or desktop pranks - Cybersecurity-themed demos or video backgrounds - Halloween or April Fools visual gags - Fake control-room scenes for streams and recordings ### Prank Responsibly - Reveal the joke quickly if someone looks genuinely concerned - Avoid using it during real incidents, deadlines, or support calls - Keep the bit short, obvious in hindsight, and easy to laugh about - Remember that this page never touches files, processes, or the operating system This prank is rendered entirely in the browser. It does not install malware, scan your device, encrypt files, or modify the system in any way. --- ## Dead Pixel Test URL: https://whitescreen.tv/dead-pixel-test/ ## Dead Pixel Test: Check Your Screen in 30 Seconds A dead pixel test is simple: fill the screen with a series of solid colors and look closely. Defective pixels that hide on a busy desktop stand out immediately against a pure, uniform color. Click the preview above to go fullscreen, then click anywhere (or press the arrow keys) to step through white, black, red, green, blue, and more. Press Escape when you are done. ### Dead vs. Stuck vs. Hot Pixels - **Dead pixel**: stays black on every color. The pixel receives no power - most visible on the white screen. - **Stuck pixel**: frozen on one color (often red, green, or blue). It shows up on the solid color screens that do not match its stuck subpixel - visible as a bright dot on black, or a wrong-colored dot on red/green/blue. - **Hot pixel**: always white, most visible on the black screen. Common on cameras, rarer on displays. Step through every color: a defect that appears on only one or two colors is a stuck subpixel, while a dot that is black everywhere is truly dead. ### How to Fix a Stuck Pixel Dead pixels are permanent hardware defects, but stuck pixels sometimes recover: 1. **Run a color cycle for 10-30 minutes.** Rapid color changes can jolt a stuck subpixel back to life - leave this test cycling, or use our [glitch screen](/glitch-screen/) as an unconventional exerciser. 2. **Gentle pressure.** With the screen off, press very lightly on the spot with a soft cloth, then turn the display on while releasing. Use minimal force - this is at your own risk and not recommended for OLED panels. 3. **Wait.** Some stuck pixels resolve themselves over days of normal use. ### Check Warranty Before You Accept Defects Most manufacturers define a maximum number of allowed defective pixels per panel class (ISO 9241-307). Many premium monitor lines - and most phone brands - replace panels with even a single dead pixel within the warranty window. Run this test the day a new device arrives, and screenshot-document anything you find. ### Buying a Used Monitor or Phone? This page works on any device with a browser - no install, no signup. Open it on the seller's device, run the color cycle fullscreen, and you will know the panel's true condition in under a minute. Pair it with the [white screen test](/white-screen-test/) to also check for tint, uniformity, and backlight bleed. --- ## White Screen Test URL: https://whitescreen.tv/white-screen-test/ ## White Screen Test: a Guided Check for Any Display This is a guided version of the classic white screen check. Instead of a single blank page, it walks you through six fullscreen test patterns - white, gray, black, red, green, and blue - with an on-screen hint telling you exactly what to look for on each one. Click the preview to start, click to advance, and press Escape to finish. ### What Each Step Reveals - **Pure white** - the master uniformity check. The panel should look evenly white edge to edge. Watch for yellowish or pinkish tint, dark corners, and shadowy patches (the "dirty screen effect"). - **50% gray** - uneven backlighting and banding show up on gray before you would ever notice them on white. Gray is what professional calibrators use. - **Black** - turn the room lights down and check the edges: glowing patches are backlight bleed, hazy areas are clouding. On OLED, black should be perfectly off. - **Red / Green / Blue** - each solid primary isolates one subpixel. A dot glowing the wrong color is a stuck subpixel; run the dedicated [dead pixel test](/dead-pixel-test/) to inspect it closely. ### When Should You Worry? Mild tint variation and a little bleed are normal on LCD panels - perfection exists only in marketing. Worry when defects are visible during normal use: a tinted half on a photo-editing monitor, bleed that distracts in dark movies, or any dead pixel on a brand-new device (check your warranty's pixel policy - many brands replace panels for a single defect). ### Test New and Used Screens Before Committing The best time to run this test is the day a monitor arrives - or right before you hand over cash for a used one. It needs no install and works on any device with a browser: monitors, laptops, phones, tablets, projectors, and TVs. For a quick everyday blank screen instead of a guided test, the classic [white screen](/) is one click away, and the [black screen](/black-screen/) doubles as an OLED-friendly blank display. --- ## White Screen Image URL: https://whitescreen.tv/white-screen-image/ ## White Screen Image: Blank White Backgrounds in Any Size Need an actual white image file rather than a white browser tab? This page generates one on demand, entirely in your browser: pick a size, pick a format, click download. Nothing uploads anywhere, there is no watermark, and the image is mathematically pure white (RGB 255, 255, 255) unless you choose a softer shade. ### Ready-Made Sizes - **1920 x 1080 (Full HD)** - presentations, video filler frames, stream overlays - **2560 x 1440 (2K)** and **3840 x 2160 (4K)** - desktop wallpapers on modern monitors - **7680 x 4320 (8K)** - future-proof master file that downscales cleanly - **Phone wallpaper sizes** - correct aspect ratios for recent iPhones and Android flagships - **Custom** - any width and height up to 8K, for banner slots, print mockups, or e-ink displays ### PNG or JPG? Choose **PNG** when the white must stay perfectly flat - solid-color PNGs compress to a few hundred bytes and never show compression artifacts. Choose **JPG** only when a tool or upload form refuses PNG; at maximum quality the difference is invisible, but PNG is technically cleaner for pure colors. ### What People Use a Plain White Image For - A clean **wallpaper** that makes icons pop and hides screen smudges - **Design mockups and slides** - a neutral base layer you can dim or tint - **Printer test page** - a borderless white sheet reveals ink smears and roller marks - A **tracing lightbox**: set the white image fullscreen, place paper over a tablet, and trace - **Video editing filler** and flash frames, where a generated file beats hunting for stock If you just need your display to be white right now - for lighting, cleaning, or a quick check - the fullscreen [white screen](/) tool is faster; and if you are testing the panel itself, use the [white screen test](/white-screen-test/) instead. --- ## Bright White Screen URL: https://whitescreen.tv/bright-white-screen/ ## Bright White Screen: Your Display as a Light Source This page does one thing: make your screen as bright as it can physically get, and keep it that way. Click the preview to go fullscreen - the page automatically requests a wake lock so your device will not dim or sleep mid-use. Press Escape to finish. ### Getting Maximum Brightness A web page cannot exceed your display's brightness setting, so squeeze out every nit first: 1. **Set system brightness to 100%** - F-keys or slider on laptops, Control Center on phones. 2. **Disable auto-brightness / adaptive brightness**, which quietly dials the panel down. 3. **Turn off Night Shift, Night Light, and blue-light filters** - they tint the white and cut output. 4. **Plug in**: many laptops and phones cap brightness on battery power. 5. On this page, the mouse wheel adjusts software brightness downward if you need *less* light - by default you get the maximum. ### What a Maxed-Out Screen Is Good For - **Video call lighting**: a fullscreen white monitor behind your webcam is a soft, even key light that flatters far more than a bare ceiling bulb. (For a warmer tone, try the Zoom Lighting preset on the [white screen](/) page.) - **Emergency room light**: a phone or tablet at max white brightness lights a small room surprisingly well. - **Makeup and grooming**: even, shadow-free light next to a mirror. - **Photography fill**: a second monitor as a budget softbox for product shots. - **Reading light**: point a white tablet at the wall for gentle indirect light. ### How Bright Is a Screen, Really? Typical laptop panels reach 250-400 nits, desktop monitors 300-600, and recent phones can exceed 1,000 nits outdoors. That is far below a dedicated lamp in total output, but because the light is a large, even panel rather than a point source, it is excellent as *soft* light at close range - exactly what faces on video calls need. Want colored mood lighting instead? Every color screen - [red](/red-screen/), [pink](/pink-screen/), [purple](/purple-screen/) - has the same fullscreen mode and brightness control. --- ## Prank Screens URL: https://whitescreen.tv/prank-screens/ ## Prank Screens: Every Fake Screen in One Place Every prank on this site follows the same rules: it runs fullscreen in an ordinary browser tab, it installs nothing, it touches nothing on the computer, and Escape ends it instantly. Feeling indecisive? The **Random Prank** button above picks one for you. ### The Classics - **[Fake Windows Update](/fake-windows-update/)** - the undisputed king. A perfectly fake update screen with a progress percentage you control. Set it to crawl toward 99% and watch a colleague's soul leave their body. - **[Fake Blue Screen](/fake-blue-screen/)** - the classic Blue Screen of Death, pixel-accurate. Best deployed just before someone's big presentation (with mercy, and a quick Escape). - **[Fake macOS Update](/fake-macos-update/)** - the Apple flavor, for the Mac users in your life. ### The Dramatic Ones - **[FBI Lock Screen](/fbi-lock-prank/)** - a parody law-enforcement seizure screen complete with an official-looking warning. Absurd enough that nobody stays fooled for long - which is exactly the fun. - **[Fake Virus Screen](/virus-screen-prank/)** - cascading alerts and a fake "infection" that reacts to keypresses. - **[Broken Screen](/broken-screen/)** - realistic cracked-glass overlays. Pair with a dramatic gasp when handing back a borrowed laptop. - **[Glitch Screen](/glitch-screen/)** - RGB tearing and corrupted blocks that look like a dying GPU. ### The Hacker Aesthetic - **[Hacker Typer](/hacker-typer/)** - mash any keys, produce flawless "code" like a movie hacker. - **[Fake Terminal](/fake-terminal-hack/)** - an automated terminal that appears to breach the Pentagon. - **[Matrix Rain](/fake-matrix/)** - the iconic green digital rain, fully customizable. ### The Chill Ones - **[DVD Screensaver](/dvd-screensaver/)** - the bouncing logo. Will it hit the corner? A built-in counter keeps score. - **[White Noise](/white-noise-for-sleep/)** - not a prank at all: static for sleep and focus, hiding among the troublemakers. ### How to Pull Off a Screen Prank 1. Open the prank and go fullscreen **before** they arrive; press F11 in most browsers to hide the toolbar. 2. Hide the cursor by nudging it to a screen corner. 3. Timing beats realism: launch a fake update two minutes before their meeting. 4. Keep it kind - reveal the joke before real panic sets in, and never prank someone mid-deadline. April 1st is your national holiday. All pranks are visual jokes only: nothing is installed, modified, or at risk - see the [FAQ on any prank page](/fake-windows-update/) for details.
