Online alarm clock for 11:01 pm
Waiting for 11:01 pm before starting your evening run along the river, you can keep an eye on the time without repeatedly checking your phone. The alarm marks the moment to set off while leaving enough of the evening for the route before 12:00 am. It suits a late riverside outing when you have already changed, filled your bottle and are simply holding back until the chosen minute.
Your headphones may quietly take over the alarm sound, so check the audio output before you settle in to wait. A quick test can confirm whether the alert will play through the phone speaker or directly into your ears. Keep the page active and the phone awake: otherwise, the river run alert may never sound and your planned departure could slip past unnoticed. Set the volume at a level you can hear without making the alert unnecessarily harsh.
Once you head outside at 11:01 pm, the air beside an Australian river can feel more humid than it did away from the water. Choose a steady opening stretch and notice whether the damp air makes the route feel warmer or cooler than expected. If the path is exposed, carry water even for a familiar circuit, and use a well-lit turnaround point so the late-evening finish stays easy to judge.
Common questions
Does the alarm work if my laptop goes to sleep?
Not reliably. If the device sleeps or the screen locks, the browser tab pauses along with it, so the alarm may not fire on time or at all. Adjust your power settings if you're relying on this over a longer stretch.
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.
