How to use the online alarm clock
If 11:04 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 11:04 pm. No app, no account, just a tab that stays open until it fires.
There's a short list of sounds to choose from before you press Start — pick one that suits how deep a sleeper you are. Once it's set, the page keeps time in the background of your browser, and it'll sound at the moment you selected, provided the tab hasn't been closed.
A browser alarm like this one is handy when your phone's on silent, charging in another room, or you just don't want to unlock it and get pulled into notifications. The trade-off is honesty: it only rings while this tab stays open, so it's not a replacement for your phone alarm on a trip where the laptop lid might close. On a 24-hour clock 11:04 pm is written 23:04, and spoken aloud it's four minutes past eleven at night. Written the Australian way that's 11.04 pm, and typed in a hurry it's often 11:04pm. Whether you would say set alarm for 11:04 pm or put an alarm on for 11:04 pm, the steps are the same: pick a sound, press Start, leave the tab open.
Common questions
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.
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.
