Online alarm clock for 12:45 pm
As you hand the job over to a coworker, set the 12:45 pm alarm to mark when you need to leave for the second half of your shift. That gives you a clear cue to wrap up the handover, collect your keys and head out before 1:00 pm, without repeatedly checking the clock.
Your departure cue needs to be louder than the everyday noise around you. Set the volume high enough to carry over conversation, a radio, traffic or machinery, then play a quick test from where you will actually wait. Keep the phone close rather than buried in a bag or left across the room. This browser alarm cannot get you moving for the shift if its page is no longer running or the phone has gone to sleep, so use a built-in phone alarm as backup when missing the cue would delay your relief.
Leaving around midday can mean stepping from a dim staffroom into sharp Australian sunlight. Put sunglasses somewhere visible during the handover, and move the phone away from window glare so the alarm controls remain easy to read at 12:45 pm. If the room is dark, raise the screen brightness beforehand instead of fumbling with it when the signal sounds.
Common questions
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.
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.
