Online alarm clock for 12:55 pm

As you hand responsibility for the fasting tests to someone else at 12:55 pm, confirm that they know the alarm is the signal to leave, collect the paperwork, or take over the remaining preparation. The five minutes before 1:00 pm are enough for a clear handover without turning the moment into a rushed string of messages.

For this fasting-test handover, the alarm tone should match where the other person will be. A gentle sound suits a quiet room when the phone is nearby; a more persistent tone makes sense if they are packing up, showering, or moving through the house. Choose the sound before starting the alarm, then leave the volume high enough to be noticed. If the alarm page is dismissed or the phone is allowed to sleep, it will not sound, so the handover for the fasting tests could be missed.

Because this midday signal may carry through a shared Australian home, place the phone near the person taking over rather than beside someone working, resting, or settling a child. A lower tone at close range can be clearer than a loud one from another room. If lunch is underway, agree beforehand that 12:55 pm refers to the fasting-test handover, not a general household reminder.

Common questions

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.

Is there a cost to use this?

No, it's free, with no sign-up and no limit on how many times you set it. It just needs the tab left open until the time you've chosen arrives.

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.
