The Best Phone and Text Pranks: iPhone Pranks to Mess With Someone

There’s nothing like a good prank to liven up a dull day. And with today’s technology, it’s easier than ever to play some harmless jokes on your friends and family members. If you’re lucky enough to have an iPhone at your disposal, then you’re in the perfect position to play some of the best phone and text pranks around. Not sure where to start? Here are some of the best iPhone pranks to mess with someone.

1. The Auto-Correct Prank

One of the most classic phone pranks around is the auto-correct prank. Simply head to your victim’s phone settings, and under “keyboard,” add a few new auto-correct words, like “hello” to “goodbye” or “yes” to “no.” Then sit back and wait for your victim to unwittingly send a hilarious message.

2. The Fake Lock Screen Prank

Want to really mess with someone’s head? Try creating a fake lock screen on their phone. Simply take a screenshot of their current lock screen, add some fake notifications, and set it as their wallpaper. Watch as they try and fail to access their phone, completely baffled by what’s going on.

3. The Siri Prank

Siri can be a great tool for pranking your friends. Simply ask Siri to call your victim by a ridiculous name, or to send them a ridiculous message. For example, you could say, “Siri, send a message to John that says, ‘I can’t stop thinking about unicorns.’”

4. The Fake Text Prank

Want to make your victim think they’re receiving texts from someone they’re not? Try creating a fake text conversation. Simply take screenshots of a text conversation on your own phone, delete the previous messages, and type in new ones that make it look like your victim is receiving texts from someone else. Watch as they frantically try and figure out who’s contacting them.

5. The Vibration Prank

If your victim is someone who always has their phone on them, this prank is perfect. Simply go into their phone settings, and under the “sounds” section, change the vibration pattern for notifications. Choose a ridiculous pattern, like “sos,” and watch your victim jump every time their phone buzzes.

In conclusion, iPhone pranks can be a great way to have some harmless fun with your friends and family members. Whether it’s the classic auto-correct prank or the more involved fake lock screen prank, there are plenty of ways to mess with someone using an iPhone. Just remember to keep it light-hearted and make sure your victim can take a joke.

About Us

Since technology is not going anywhere and does more good than harm, adapting is the best course of action. That is where The Tech Edvocate comes in. We plan to cover the PreK-12 and Higher Education EdTech sectors and provide our readers with the latest news and opinion on the subject. From time to time, I will invite other voices to weigh in on important issues in EdTech. We hope to provide a well-rounded, multi-faceted look at the past, present, the future of EdTech in the US and internationally.

We started this journey back in June 2016, and we plan to continue it for many more years to come. I hope that you will join us in this discussion of the past, present and future of EdTech and lend your own insight to the issues that are discussed.
