Do you like watching movies on your phone, but find the screen is just a bit small? You can stream the movie to a TV, but special equipment is typically needed. A really fun way to watch some movies is to make a DIY smartphone projector.


You do not need a lot of materials to make a DIY smartphone projector. A shoe box is the case for your projector and a magnifying glass can be used for the lens. Make sure the inside of the shoe box is black so there is no light that will be reflected. You can use paint or construction paper.

A DIY smartphone projector is really easy to make, but there are a few things to know. The screen of a smartphone may not be bright enough to see if you are not in a dark room. You might also need to have multiple lenses to use as one may work better than another. Instructions to make your own DIY smartphone projector are on instructables.com here...
