The Classic “Broken Phone” Prank  April Fools Pranks Over Text

This one’s a golden oldie but still gets them every time.

Text your friend something like: “Hey, my phone screen cracked. Can you tell me if this message is readable?”

When they respond, keep insisting you can’t read their replies.

It’ll drive them nuts!

The “Autocorrect Nightmare”

Pretend your autocorrect has gone haywire.

Send a series of messages with ridiculous autocorrect “mistakes.”

Example: “Hey, want to grab some lunch? I’m craving a big plate of unicorns and rainbows.”

Keep it up until they catch on or lose their mind trying to decipher your texts.

The “Fake Celebrity Encounter”

This one’s a riot if you’ve got a friend who’s obsessed with a particular celeb.

Text them something like: “OMG! You’ll never guess who I just bumped into at Starbucks!”

Then describe a totally believable (but fake) encounter with their idol.

Watch them freak out before you drop the “April Fools” bomb.

The “Mysterious Package” Prank

Send a text saying: “Hey, I just got a notification that a package was delivered to your address by mistake. Can you check?”

When they say there’s nothing there, keep insisting and adding weird details about the package.

It’ll have them scratching their heads for sure.

The “Fake Lottery Win”

This one’s for the dreamers in your life.

Text them: “I think I just won the lottery! Can you double-check these numbers for me?”

Give them a set of numbers and watch them go through a rollercoaster of emotions before you reveal the truth.
