Online alarm clock for 2:12 am

Waking at 2:12 am gives you a moment to shake off sleep before collecting a parcel from an overnight delivery. Keep the pickup details, keys and a light jumper beside the bed so there is no need to search through the house while half-awake. The alarm is early enough to get ready without drifting towards 3:00 am and risking a missed handover.

A delivery vehicle outside may be hard to hear over a fan, air conditioner or other background noise, so the alarm volume should be checked beforehand at the level normally used overnight. A short test can reveal whether the signal is distinct enough to wake you rather than blending into the room. Because this alarm works only while the browser remains active and the phone or computer stays awake, the delivery pickup could be missed if either is shut down or allowed to sleep.

Collecting a parcel in the middle of the night can disturb everyone else long before the driver reaches the door. Leave keys away from loose coins, silence unnecessary notifications and use a dim hallway light instead of switching on bright overhead lights. If the household includes light sleepers, a moderate nearby alarm at 2:12 am is less disruptive than a very loud signal carrying through every room.

Common questions

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.

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.
