What this test can tell you

The page draws a solid color for you to inspect visually. Compare more than one background and distinguish a mark fixed to the display from something that moves with page content.

It does not automatically detect defects, measure color accuracy or repair a panel. Browser fullscreen, color settings, brightness and room reflections affect what you see.

How to use it

  1. Press “Open fullscreen” (or the F key) to fill the entire screen with white.
  2. Turn up your display brightness for a stronger light.
  3. Set the timer if you want the screen to close automatically.
  4. Press Esc, tap or click to leave fullscreen.

What a white screen is good for

Use white as a fill light for a call, a tracing background or a way to compare dark dots and uneven areas. A mark on one background is a reason to compare other colors, not a diagnosis of its cause.

Checking your display

Inspect from a consistent angle at a comfortable brightness. Reflections, display settings, night-light filters and the panel can all affect the appearance. For physical cleaning, turn off the display and follow the manufacturer’s instructions; inspect again afterwards.

Not working? Try these fixes

Fullscreen does not open on iPhone

Safari on iPhone limits fullscreen for web pages. The page still fills the browser window; rotate to landscape and hide the toolbar by scrolling, or add the page to your Home Screen for a borderless view.

The screen dims or turns off

This page asks your browser to keep the screen awake. If it still dims, disable battery saver and check the auto-lock setting of your device.

The white looks yellow

Night Light (Windows), Night Shift (Mac, iPhone) or an eye-comfort mode is active. Turn it off for true white.

Frequently asked questions

How bright should I set the white screen?

Use a comfortable brightness for the room and task. Avoid staring at an unnecessarily bright display and stop if it is uncomfortable.

Can I use it as a ring light?

Yes. Put the white screen on a second device or monitor next to your camera for soft, even light on your face.

What color code is the white screen?

It is pure white: #FFFFFF or RGB(255, 255, 255).
