About wipescreen

wipescreen builds small, fast screen tools that do exactly one thing well. The first tool fills your screen with solid white. From there, the same idea extended to black, any custom color, maximum brightness, and a screen flashlight.

Why we built this

Most white screen tools stop at the tool

Existing single-purpose white screen pages work for the one task, but leave visitors without answers to the questions that come before or after using it.

Before the tool

How do I even trigger full screen mode in my browser? Our full screen guide answers this directly.

During the tool

Five distinct tools, each matched to a specific task, so you are not stuck adjusting one generic tool to fit five different needs.

After the tool

I found a mark on my screen during the color test. What does it mean? Our diagnosis guide explains it.

How it works

Every tool runs entirely in your browser

Nothing is uploaded, tracked, or stored. Closing the tab or pressing Escape returns your screen to normal immediately.

No account required

None of the tools require sign-up, a download, or a browser extension. Open the page and use it.

Built on web standards

Every tool uses the browser’s native Fullscreen API, the same standard behind full screen video and presentation modes, rather than a custom plugin.

The story

Why I built SorryCard

One day I had a fight with my mom. The words came out wrong, and the silence after felt worse. I wanted to say sorry, but a plain text felt too small for what I felt.

So I did what I do best. I opened my editor and built a sorry card. It carried my apology better than a quick message ever could. My mom smiled, and the fight melted away.

That card became SorryCard. I turned my own apology into a free tool, so you can say sorry to the people you love in a way they keep and remember.

FAQ

Common questions

Why does wipescreen have five separate tools instead of one?

White screen, black screen, color test, brightness test, and flashlight each answer a different search intent, even though they share the same underlying full-screen technique. Splitting them lets each page speak directly to what a visitor is actually trying to do, instead of one generic page that under-serves every use case.

Is wipescreen a company or a solo project?

It is an independent, solo-built project, not a company. That keeps the tools free, ad-light, and focused on solving the actual problem rather than growing a team or a funnel.

Will wipescreen add more tools in the future?

Possibly. New tools are added when a genuine, distinct search intent is not already covered by the existing five. Suggestions are welcome through the Contact page.

Does wipescreen have a mobile app?

wipescreen installs as a Progressive Web App directly from your browser, on Android, iOS, Windows, Mac, and Chrome OS, with no app store required. See the App page for install steps.
