How to use the online alarm clock
If the afternoon has you juggling pickups, training runs, or a second job starting later, 2:23 pm is worth setting properly rather than trusting memory. This tool rings at 2:23 pm straight from your browser, loud enough to notice over the usual afternoon noise at home.
Set your preferred sound, press Start, then leave the tab where it is. Everything happens inside the browser — no background app, no notification pushed from a server — so an open tab is what actually makes the alarm ring at the right time.
The advantage of a browser alarm is volume and reliability at a desk: laptop speakers are often louder and easier to hear across a room than a phone left in a bag. The catch is that it depends entirely on the tab staying open; if the browser closes or the laptop sleeps, the alarm won't fire. On a 24-hour clock 2:23 pm is written 14:23, and spoken aloud it's twenty-three minutes past two in the afternoon. Timetables and rosters may show it as 14:23, and handwritten notes as 2.23 pm. Whether you would say set alarm for 2:23 pm or put an alarm on for 2:23 pm, the steps are the same: pick a sound, press Start, leave the tab open.
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.
