Uses of Black Screen & Color Screen
1. Power Saving
When you are not using your device, playing music, or downloading, bring up the black screen. It's been found that Black Screen can reduce power consumption by up to 58%. Make sure your display is OLED to truly save some power. However, LED displays may not save as much as you think.
2. Cleaning
See the dust. In this case, white and other screens will also help. Clean the screen as frequently as possible with the soft microfibre cloth only. Before doing that, make sure you remove the dust using a towel. For the fine dust, use a liquid that is non-alcoholic and non-corrosive. For the sticky dust, do not apply pressure; use the microfibre cloth and gently apply in a clockwise direction.
3. Testing
Use the full screen and increase or decrease your brightness to check your display's contrast. You can also determine your display type using this technique. Turn on the full black screen in a dark room. Check if the pixels are completely turned off; if it's not, you can actually see the screen dark gray. If it's dark grey, it's LED; otherwise, it's OLED.
4. Dead Pixels Testing
Identify dead pixels on your screen by using various colors. Some pixels may look normal on one color but may not work on others. Please make sure you are trying all the possible colors to be sure. Usually, a white screen does the job. We have 16 Million colors to choose from, so there is no way that you would miss a dead pixel.
5. Aesthetics
Make your device look beautiful by using various color screens. We have introduced random color screensavers to make your experience even better. If you are using a mac book pro, you can open the black screen, match your MacBook pro laptop color, and make your device the center of attention.
6. Color Matching
Match your screen color with your Mac Book Pro device color to make it highly appealing. For the best experience, use it in Oculus VR. It will help to identify if the VR headset is working as expected. If we get enough requests, we may just develop this website for virtual reality devices too.
7. Message Display
A message displayer is an advanced module developed to display a message on a black screen. You can, however, change the text and background as your wish. Use it to leave a note for others at home or office. Please note that even if your device goes to sleep, the message will still be displayed once it's unlocked.
8. Better than Video
Video consumes a lot of processing and RAM. This website is the most light weight thing you can find on the internet, and it consumes almost zero processing and negligible RAM. The difference between a video and a black screen is that PC will not go to sleep when you open the black screen through this website but not in the video.
9. LED vs OLED Detection
The difference between the two is that LED does not work on self-illumination as it requires a backlight to work. On the other hand, OLED works on self-illumination and does not need a backlight. When the black screen is on, the OLED shuts down all the pixels and is, therefore, a perfect way to save power and increase the life of your display.
10. Meditation & Focus
Use this when you don't want to shut off the computer, but your screen is so bright. Whenever I fall asleep watching TV and wake up again in the middle of the night, the TV is always too bright, but I don't want to get up, so I grab my remote and open this. Working on a computer for 8 hours a day, I display a message that I will be back in some time whenever I take a break or go for lunch.
Frequently asked questions
How does it work?
This website uses a simple program to make a black div (html element) go full screen. It doesn't modify/affect your system software or hardware in any way. The code used here is non-encrypted and can be viewed by anyone using the browser dev tool. The design and the code, however, are subject to copyright (LightIvoryWeb).
What is JustBlackScreen.com?
JustBlackScreen.com is a color/message display website. Use it to display a black screen, color screen, or message. Use it to check dead pixels or backlight bleeding or clean your screen without turning off your device. You can also make your display of any color and also download solid color backgrounds of any size or format. We have recently introduced the message display feature, which can be used to display any message on your screen.
Why doesn't it work on iPhones?
From iOS 12, it's impossible to toggle to fullscreen by using FullScreenAPI in browsers unless it's a video element. A video is provided at the bottom for iPhone users.
Will the system go to sleep on FullScreen mode?
Yes. Your device will go to sleep when full-screen mode is on. Please refer below for changing power settings so that the system does not sleep.
How do I exit from FullScreen mode?
Press Esc or F11 Key
What is the difference between LED and OLED? and why does it matter when you are using a black screen
The difference between the two is that LED does not work on self-illumination as it requires a backlight to work. On the other hand, OLED works on self-illumination and does not need a backlight. When the black screen is on, the OLED shuts down all the pixels and is, therefore, a perfect way to save power and increase the life of your display. LED requires a backlight, so even if the black screen is on, a little power is still consumed, and the pixels in your display never actually turn off. So before assuming that you are saving power, please identify your display type.
Why do people prefer this website instead of a black screen video?
Video consumes a lot of processing and RAM. This website is the most light weight thing you can find on the internet, and it consumes almost zero processing and negligible RAM. The difference between a video and a black screen is that PC will not go to sleep when you open the black screen through this website but not in the video. Of course, not allowing the device to go to sleep was very easy to implement, but this was done on purpose because if you are using a laptop, you might forget to turn off the black screen, and your battery will run out.
How to make your device not go to sleep when the black screen is on?
Please follow the below steps to change the sleep time. Make sure to change it back to normal once you're done. Changing the sleep time can be risky, especially if you are using a battery power device. This will affect your battery life and your display, so make sure you are reverting it. Most of the users are using Windows or MAC machines so we have mentioned only these two.
Why was JustBlackScreen Project created?
You may be wondering what lead me to make this website. Let me tell you the story. I am a software developer and hosting expert, so I often have to work late at night working with clients. I take breaks by listening to music and turning off the monitor, so I realized why not develop a light weight website that darkens the screen. This will help me and everyone who works late at night. The website was started with only a black screen. Then I added more colors, a color screen saver, and then a message displayer. I later realized that many of my users are also looking for wallpaper makers, so I developed a solid color image generator with unlimited colors, size, and format. New modules will be added regularly based on request.
How are people using justblackscreen.com?
We have had users tell us the many ways they use this website: I have a dell laptop, I use the Dell laptop's black screen to take a break from work and troubleshoot. I usually use this to save power so that their OLED can turn off all its pixels without turning off the PC. I open this on my tv when I can't find the remote and I want to get up. I have two monitors. When I am watching videos, I put the video on one monitor and the blackscreen on the other monitor to create an immersive experience. I use this when I don't want to shut off the computer, but your screen is so bright. Working on a computer for 8 hours a day, I display a message that I will be back in some time whenever I take a break or go for lunch. My colleagues liked the idea, and now they are all doing the same.
