Frequently asked questions

How do I find dead pixels?

Switch between white, black, and red, green, blue screens, and look for any dot that stays always on or off unlike its surroundings.

Can it check burn-in too?

If a faint afterimage of a previous screen shows on a solid (especially gray or white) screen, it may be burn-in.

Does it work on smartphones?

Yes. It works full-screen in mobile browsers too, and tapping the screen moves to the next color.
