How to use the online alarm clock
Some people set this for 10:57 am because their phone alarm gets silenced by early notifications; others just want a second, louder reminder. Either way, pick 10:57 am, choose a sound, press start, and leave the tab open. It'll ring at 10:57 am until you close it or hit stop.
After picking a tone, press Start and leave the page open. It doesn't need an internet connection once it's running, but it does need the tab itself to stay open, so avoid closing the browser or letting the device fall asleep before the time is reached.
Compared to a phone, this alarm has one job and nothing else competing for attention — no messages, no app switching. It's free and doesn't ask for sign-up, but it only works while the tab is open and the device stays awake, so it suits daytime use at a desk better than an overnight bedroom alarm. On a 24-hour clock 10:57 am is written 10:57, and spoken aloud it's three minutes to eleven in the morning. Written the Australian way that's 10.57 am, and typed in a hurry it's often 10:57am. Whether you would say set alarm for 10:57 am or put an alarm on for 10:57 am, the steps are the same: pick a sound, press Start, leave the tab open.
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.
