Dead Pixels turns any screen into a convincingly defective panel: tiny black dead pixels and bright red, green, blue and white stuck pixels scattered across a solid test field, with an optional dead line, backlight-bleed glow and subtle flicker. Tap anywhere to plant more, or cycle the black/white/red/green/blue/grey test colours. Nothing is actually wrong — every defect is drawn on top of a normal web page.
What makes Fake Dead Pixels different
Dead Pixels turns any screen into a convincingly defective panel: tiny black dead pixels, bright red/green/blue/white stuck pixels, an optional dead line, backlight bleed and subtle flicker over a solid test field. It is two tools in one — a hands-on prank you tap to worsen, and, with the fake defects off, a genuine solid-colour dead-pixel test for your real display.
What you can do with it
- A dead pixel prank — leave it fullscreen on their monitor or phone so they think the panel is failing
- A realistic "my new screen has dead pixels" reveal for videos, skits and reaction clips
- A quick solid-colour test field to eyeball a real display — turn the fake defects off first
How to use Fake Dead Pixels
- Tap or click anywhere to plant a new defective pixel at that spot.
- Press the action keys — TEST FIELD cycles the solid colour, SCATTER adds more dead pixels, and DEAD LINE, BACKLIGHT and FLICKER toggle those defects; REPAIR clears everything.
- To use it as a real test, turn the fake defects off in Customize and cycle the solid black/white/red/green/blue/grey fields to spot any genuine dead pixels on your own screen.
- Press Fullscreen; leave it on a friend’s monitor as a prank, or use it as a clean test field.
Customize it
Choose the solid test-field colour (black, white, red, green, blue, grey or auto-cycle), set the number of scattered pixels, and toggle the dead/stuck pixels, the dead line, the backlight bleed and the flicker independently.
Fake Dead Pixels FAQ
Is my screen actually damaged?
No. Every dead pixel, stuck pixel, line and bleed is drawn on a full-screen canvas over a normal page — your display is completely fine. Press Repair, or reload the page, and they all disappear instantly.
Can I use it as a real dead-pixel test?
Yes. Turn off the fake defects in Customize and cycle the solid black, white, red, green, blue and grey fields — any real dead or stuck pixels on your own screen show up against the flat colour.
How do I add or clear the defects?
Tap or click anywhere to plant a new pixel, use the action keys to scatter pixels or toggle the dead line, backlight bleed and flicker, and Repair clears everything at once.
