1. Keep sending "..." without ever actually sending a message

Type three dots (…) and send them repeatedly without following up with an actual text. Your boyfriend or friends will be waiting anxiously, wondering what you're trying to say!

2. Act like your phone is autocorrecting everything into nonsense

Pretend your phone is out of control by typing gibberish and blaming it on autocorrect. Example:

You: "Hey, are we still on for lunch at 12?"

Sent Message: "Hey, arm wrestle melting four lunch at elf?"

Let them struggle to decode your "messages" before finally telling them, "April Fools!"

3. "Accidentally" confess something outrageous

Text your boyfriend or friend something completely wild and unexpected, then act like you didn't mean to send it to them. Example:

You: "I think he finally knows I'm secretly a spy… oh wait, wrong person!"

4. Respond to everything using only emojis and refuse to explain

No matter what they say, reply with random or cryptic emojis. Keep it going until they get frustrated!

5. The "I have something to tell you" cliffhanger

Text your friend or boyfriend, "I need to tell you something..." and then go completely silent. Let them panic for as long as you can keep it up.

6. The "Your Number Has Been Held" Prank

Send a message pretending that your number has been temporarily suspended due to suspicious activity. Your boyfriend or friend will be left completely confused, wondering what happened and if you're in trouble! Here's a template you can copy and send:

This number has been temporarily held by the authorities due to suspicious activity. Further verification is required. Failure to respond within 24 hours may result in permanent disconnection.

Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter.

This is an automated message. Please do not ignore.

7. The fake "message failed to send" trick

Send a dramatic or confusing text, then immediately follow up with "Message failed to send" so they think they weren't supposed to see it.

8. The Typing-Then-Disappearing Act

Keep typing random letters, then deleting them, so the typing bubble appears and disappears constantly. Let them suffer in anticipation of a message that never arrives!

9. The Fake Update Feature

Tell them their phone got a new update that lets them smell pictures. Then send a random photo and say, "Try sniffing it! It's so cool!"

10. The "New Number" Trick

Text your boyfriend or friend from a random number (or use a texting app for anonymity) and send them this: "Hey, it's me, your long-lost twin. Mom never told you about me, but it's time we finally meet."
