Pick a color and it fills the entire screen right away. Tap the screen or press Esc to go back. On supported devices it also keeps the screen from dimming or sleeping while it is on.
Ways to use a white screen
Prop a laptop or tablet in front of you on a late-night video call and the white screen works as a soft key light. Lay thin paper over it and it becomes a lightbox for tracing drawings or lettering. It is also great for spotting dust and smudges.
When black is better
A black screen makes fingerprints and dust easy to see while you clean, and your taps won’t trigger anything. It is also handy when you want music playing with as little screen glow as possible, and OLED screens use less power on black.
Other colors
A warm peach makes a cozy night light, and soft pink is flattering on camera. The green option works as a quick chroma-key background, and you can pick any custom color to compare how different screens render it.
