This wacky, unusual prank tricks the naive (or those who lack general tech knowledge) into thinking you can charge a regular smartphone with solar power. 

To use the app is relatively straightforward – begin by downloading and installing the app. After launching, place your phone under any light source (for more believable results, choose a ray of light) and the phone will display a battery signal, appearing to charge.

This fun little add-on gives the impression that it enables users to connect to the strongest internet 3G and 4G signals, boosting their signal and internet connection speed. While a lesser-known feature, and perhaps not as effective as it’s solar power trick it’s worth using nonetheless.

Features

• Fake Solar Power Charging Prank, trick others into thinking you can charge your phone with any light source

• Use their Signal Booster prank feature into making people believe they can boost their internet speed
