It is generally considered best to let an April Fool's prank drag on for a short and reasonable amount of time, such as a few minutes or hours at most. Once the joke has been revealed or the intended target has realized it is an April Fool's prank, it is important to break the news to them as soon as possible.
Continuing to let the prank drag on for an extended period of time can be frustrating or even upsetting for the person who fell for the joke, and it may damage their trust in the prankster or others involved in the joke. It is important to remember that April Fool's jokes should be lighthearted and fun, and should not cause harm or distress to others.
Ultimately, it is up to the discretion of the prankster to determine when to break the news about the prank. However, it is generally best to do so as soon as possible, while still allowing for the intended humor and enjoyment of the prank.
I would normally wait for them to be amazed by the prank and swallow it completely. Then tell them "April Fools!" so that we could both have a good laugh. I wouldn't want them to believe it for long or it might make them feel stupid.
But it depends on the prank.
If I told a group of gullible girls that it was World Penis Appreciation Day and they agreed to do whatever I asked, I would never admit that it was a prank. But wait a minute! What if the knew I was lying, pretended to be gullible, and agreed to do whatever I wanted as a prank on me?

I guess it depends what the joke is.
One time at work, I recorded by coworker at another kiosk signing off, then played it over the radio the next day. He must've been so fucking confused. I don't know if he figured out it was me, but I never told him.
And another time, my co-worker came in and I pretended like someone called me asking details about the murder we had, and I was like, "No, they haven't found the guy yet. No there's no immediate danger to the public. Well, that's something you'll have to talk to the rangers about."
My coworker totally thought it was a real phone call, and I have no inention of ever telling her its fake.
Sometimes I watch those hidden camera shows and I'm like, if I did that, I just wouldn't say anything and let the person be confused for the rest of their lives
April fool's jokes are cruel and unethical. Here's an example of one that went horribly wrong and ended up in the death of innocent pufferfish:
