How to use the online alarm clock
Setting an alarm for 2:37 pm in the afternoon is often about leaving enough time to beat the traffic home, or to get to training before it starts. This page rings at 2:37 pm through your speakers. No sign-up, no app, just a tab left open.
Using it is simple: pick a ringtone from the list, press Start, and leave this tab open in your browser. The alarm runs entirely on this page, so closing the browser will stop it from going off. Come back a minute early if you're not sure you trust it yet.
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 2:37 pm is written 14:37, and spoken aloud it's twenty-three minutes to three in the afternoon. Written the Australian way that's 2.37 pm, and typed in a hurry it's often 2:37pm. Set an alarm for 2:37 pm, set the alarm to 2:37 pm, set my alarm for 2:37 pm — all of it lands on this page and does the same thing.
Common questions
Does the alarm work if my laptop goes to sleep?
Not reliably. If the device sleeps or the screen locks, the browser tab pauses along with it, so the alarm may not fire on time or at all. Adjust your power settings if you're relying on this over a longer stretch.
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.
