How to use the online alarm clock
Setting an alarm for 11:05 pm at night often comes down to one thing: not trusting yourself to notice the time once you're deep into something else, whether that's study, a show, or work that's run late. This will ring at 11:05 pm through your device's speakers until you stop it.
Select a sound, hit Start, and that's the whole setup. The countdown runs inside this browser tab rather than on your device's operating system, so it needs to remain open, on a phone or laptop, until the alarm actually goes off.
This works well as a second alarm, one that isn't tangled up with phone notifications, do-not-disturb settings, or low battery. It genuinely won't ring if the tab gets closed or the device goes to sleep, so treat it as a backup or a work-desk tool rather than the only alarm for something important. On a 24-hour clock 11:05 pm is written 23:05, and spoken aloud it's five past eleven at night. You'll also see it written 11.05 pm — a full stop instead of the colon means the same time. Set an alarm for 11:05 pm, set the alarm to 11:05 pm, set my alarm for 11:05 pm — all of it lands on this page and does the same thing.
Common questions
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.
Why use a browser alarm instead of my phone's built-in one?
Mainly for reliability against silent mode, do-not-disturb, or a phone left charging out of earshot. It's a useful backup or a desk-based alternative, though it depends on this tab staying open rather than running in the background of your phone.
