Sometimes I get something on the smartphone
screen. To check if it is part of the page, or dirt
on the screen, I scroll to see what happens. Most
of the time, the item is above a soft key, so it can
often only be cleaned off by blanking the screen
first.
This prank shows a small hair,
and when the
screen is scrolled, the hair stays in exactly the
same position. When the screen is blanked it
disappears, only to return later.

Or cracked screen app. Sell a corresponding "instant cracked screen repair app" and you're set. |

Can the hair have a few pixels that if the user manages to touch, pops open with a DNA profile. Maybe a famous stalker, or famous individual you would have loved to have met. Friends and family would have to help with names. |

The cracked screen is a good addition. How about
remembering those "Good old days" by having a
permanent coffee cup stain and a few ink blots? |

I once posted an idea for a small mark that would appear on a computer screen and invite a scratching response to get rid of it..... I must have deleted it as I cannot find.... though it could still be lurking under an obscure title. I simply cannot be bothered searching for it. |

Any prank involving a simulated hair where it should not be fills my heart with butterflies and sunlight! Thank you, good Ling! |

I do like the idea that swiping at the virtual hair might occasionally manage to move it around the screen. |
|
|
Sometimes the hair could be replaced by a tiny, moving bubble under the screen protector... |

At some point doesn't the prank have to shown and signed for the kudos. |

I know an inspector who found an ant crawling around inside a ruggedized display - almost too small to see, but definitely there. It was a unique inspection find. |

|
That could have been anticipated. Antiseptic might
have worked? |

Groan. That took me about five seconds and a couple of reads to figure out, and another five or so to formic an opinion. |
