Magic Eye maker:
hide 3D text in dots.

Type a word or pick a shape, and get a stereogram where it pops out in 3D when you relax your eyes. Use random dots or a pattern made from your own picture.

How it works

  1. 1

    Pick what's hidden

    Text, a ball, a heart, ripples, steps, or your own depth map.

  2. 2

    Pick the pattern

    Random dots are easiest to see.

  3. 3

    Download and stare

    Look "through" the screen and give it a minute.

If you can't see it

  • Bring your face close, relax your eyes as if looking far away, then move back slowly.
  • A narrower eye distance suits phones; wider suits big screens.
  • Less depth is easier at first.
