How to use the online alarm clock
If 10:14 pm is when you need to leave for work while everyone else is heading to bed, this tool sets a browser alarm that rings right through your speakers at 10:14 pm. No app, no account, just a tab that stays open until it fires.
Set your preferred sound, press Start, then leave the tab where it is. Everything happens inside the browser — no background app, no notification pushed from a server — so an open tab is what actually makes the alarm ring at the right time.
Some people use this alongside a phone alarm rather than instead of it: a louder backup through laptop speakers, or a way to set a reminder without touching a phone at all. It won't survive the tab closing or the device sleeping, so for anything critical overnight, keep a second alarm running as well. On a 24-hour clock 10:14 pm is written 22:14, and spoken aloud it's fourteen minutes past ten at night. Timetables and rosters may show it as 22:14, and handwritten notes as 10.14 pm. Setting the alarm to 10:14 pm tomorrow morning works the same way: if the time has gone for today, the count runs through to it.
Common questions
What happens once the alarm goes off?
It rings through your device's speakers on a loop until you stop it from this page. There's no separate app notification, so make sure your volume is turned up before you rely on it.
Is this alarm accurate across daylight saving time?
It uses your device's local clock, so as long as your computer's time and date settings are correct, it'll adjust automatically when daylight saving time starts or ends.
Can I use this on my phone instead of a laptop?
Yes, it works in a mobile browser the same way, but phones are more likely to lock the screen or sleep, which can stop the alarm from ringing. A laptop or desktop tends to be more reliable for this.
Can I set more than one alarm at a time?
This page is built around a single alarm at a time. For multiple alarms, open a separate tab for each one and set a different time in each, keeping every tab open until it's rung.
