How to use the online alarm clock
A midday alarm at 12:07 pm is usually about not losing track of lunch, a call, or the end of a break. Set it once, leave the tab open on your work computer, and it'll ring at 12:07 pm even if you've gotten lost in something else entirely.
Start by selecting a tone from the dropdown, then hit Start to lock it in. From that point the page does the counting, and it'll ring once the time is reached, but only if the tab is still open somewhere on your device. Closing it, or the browser entirely, cancels the alarm.
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 12:07 pm is written 12:07, and spoken aloud it's seven minutes past twelve in the afternoon. Timetables and rosters may show it as 12:07, and handwritten notes as 12.07 pm. Set an alarm for 12:07 pm, set the alarm to 12:07 pm, set my alarm for 12:07 pm — all of it lands on this page and does the same thing.
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.
