Fake Broken Screen Prank
Pick a realistic cracked screen, tap it, and hand over the "broken" device. Smashed, shattered and cracked screens for phones, iPads, laptops and TVs — full-screen, keeps the device awake, and taps away in a second. Totally harmless, no app, completely free.
Installed as an app the cracks fill the whole screen — no address bar, no tabs, no giveaway.
How to Pull the Broken Screen Prank
Pick the device
Open this page on the device you're pranking, then choose Phone, iPad or TV/Laptop so the crack fits the screen.
Tap to go full-screen
Tap a cracked screen — it fills the whole display and the device won't dim or sleep while it's up.
Watch, then reveal
Leave it where they'll find it. When they gasp, tap the screen to reveal it was never broken at all.
Why It Works
A fake broken screen is the fastest, cleanest prank there is: nothing gets damaged, nothing gets installed, and it resets with one tap. This one uses real high-resolution cracked, smashed and shattered screen photos that fill the entire display — no fiddly overlays, no watermark, no pop-ups — and it holds the screen awake so it stays convincing while your victim stares at it in horror. Pick a phone crack for a phone, or a TV/laptop crack for any big landscape screen (laptop, desktop, monitor or smart TV). On iPhone and Android the crack even sits over a blurred home screen so it looks exactly like their own device just met the pavement.
Questions, Answered
Does this actually break or damage my screen?
No — it is completely harmless. It just displays a realistic full-screen cracked-screen image. Nothing is downloaded, changed or damaged, and you exit with a single tap.
How do I get out of the broken screen?
Tap anywhere on the screen (or press the Esc key on a computer) and the crack disappears instantly, back to normal.
Why does it stop my phone going to sleep?
So the prank stays convincing — the tool asks your browser to keep the screen awake while the crack is showing, so it does not dim or lock while your mark is looking at it. It releases the moment you exit.
Will it work on a phone, iPad, laptop and TV?
Yes. Pick the screen that matches the device you are pranking — phone cracks are made for phones, and the TV/laptop cracks fill any big landscape screen (laptop, desktop, monitor or smart TV).
Is it free?
Totally free, no sign-up, no app to install. Open the page, pick a crack, tap to go full-screen.
How do I pull the prank?
Open this page on the device you want to prank, choose a matching cracked screen, tap it to go full-screen, then leave it where they will find it. When they panic, tap to reveal it was fake.
For laughs only. Keep it kind — use it on people who'll see the funny side, reveal the joke quickly, and never to genuinely frighten or deceive anyone. No screens are harmed.
