Online alarm clock for 10:20 pm
As you hand the evening duties to someone else, setting an alarm for 10:20 pm keeps the family call from disappearing in the changeover. That time can suit relatives living across Australia’s time zones, whether your evening lines up with an earlier hour in Perth or a later one on the east coast. It also leaves space to finish the conversation before 11:00 pm.
While someone else takes over, the alarm page can sit behind the messages or notes you need for the call. Moving its tab into the background does not mean you should lose track of it: confirm that it remains open, the sound is audible and the browser is still running. If the page is closed or the phone or computer falls asleep, no alarm will sound, so the family call could be missed.
After an evening handover, a bright display can feel out of place against a dim room. Lower brightness before 10:20 pm, use the warmer colour setting already available on the phone, and keep the screen far enough away that names and call controls remain readable without glare. Once the alarm has sounded, putting the display face down can make the conversation less visually distracting.
Common questions
Do I need to create an account or download anything?
No, there's nothing to sign up for and nothing to install. Pick a time and a sound, press Start, and it runs entirely in this browser tab.
Can I change the alarm sound?
Yes, there's a short list of tones to choose from before you press Start. Pick whichever one you're most likely to actually hear — softer sounds are easier to sleep through than a firm chime or bell.
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.
