Going to bed for a 11:26 am alarm

Asleep by 2:11 am — 6 full sleep cycles, about 9 hours
Asleep by 3:41 am — 5 full sleep cycles, about 7 hours
Asleep by 5:11 am — 4 full sleep cycles, about 6 hours

A sleep cycle runs about 90 minutes, and most people take around 15 minutes to drop off. Waking at the end of a cycle feels easier than waking in the middle of one.

How to use the online alarm clock

Whether it's a reminder to leave for an appointment or the end of a lunch break that's gone on too long, 11:26 am works as a firm nudge in the middle of the day. Set it here and it'll ring at 11:26 am through your device's speakers until dismissed.

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.

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 11:26 am is written 11:26, and spoken aloud it's twenty-six minutes past eleven in the morning. Written the Australian way that's 11.26 am, and typed in a hurry it's often 11:26am. If you need it loud, turn the system volume up before you start: the alarm plays at whatever the device is set to.

Common questions

Will the alarm still ring if I close the browser tab?

No. The alarm only runs while this tab stays open — closing it, or closing the browser entirely, stops the countdown before it can ring. Keep the tab open in the background if you need it to go off later.

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.
