Screen light

😴 Turn your whole screen into a light ⏰

Need a quick light and don't have a torch to hand? This turns your whole display into one. Pick a colour and brightness, and the screen stays on the entire time it's shining — no install, no app, just a browser tab.

Fills the screen with light and keeps it on. Tap the light to show the colour and brightness controls; tap again to hide them.

What it's good for

Fill light

For a video call or a photo — a big soft light source instead of a harsh point.

Warm reading light

A dim amber screen that's easy on the eyes in a dark room.

Red night light

Keeps your eyes adjusted to the dark while you find something.

A light on a laptop

Most laptops have no LED torch, but they have a big bright screen.

FAQ

Does the screen stay on while the light is on?

Yes. Turning the light on requests a screen wake lock, so your display won't dim or lock while it's shining — as long as this tab stays visible. Exit the light and the screen sleeps normally again.

How do I make it as bright as possible?

Turn your device's own screen brightness all the way up first — a web page can't override that. Then set the colour to white and the brightness slider to full.

Why use the screen instead of the phone's flashlight?

The screen covers a much larger area with soft, even light and can change colour — handy as a fill light for photos and video calls, a warm reading light, a red night-vision light, or a light on a laptop that has no LED torch.
