What is a prank page?
A prank page is a full-screen web page that fakes something alarming, like a virus, a system update or a hacker breaking in, for a few seconds of panic before you reveal the joke. Because each one is just a web page, nothing is ever installed, downloaded or damaged. Close the tab, the "prank" is gone.
They suit April Fools' Day pranks, where that guide sorts the ideas by who you're pranking, and they work any other day of the year on any device. The screen pranks above are the easiest to pull off. For the workplace, office pranks covers the desk-based ones that will not get you a meeting with HR.
How to prank someone with a prank page
- In person: pick a prank, open it on the phone or laptop, press F11 for full screen, and leave the device where it will be found.
- Send as a link: every prank has its own shareable URL. Paste it into chat and they open the page, then tap Launch to start it.
- Reveal it: when they panic, tap the screen or press Esc. Nothing has changed on the device.

Are prank pages safe?
Yes. Every prank on this page is built from ordinary HTML, CSS and JavaScript, exactly like any other website. They cannot access files, install anything or damage your phone or computer, and the "virus" / "hacker" / "FBI lock" screens are pure illusion. Nothing survives closing the tab. Keep it kind: pick someone who will laugh, and reveal it quickly.
