Online alarm clock for 2:49 pm
You have just woken at 2:49 pm, and collecting your medicine from the pharmacy under a PBS prescription is still ahead of you. Set the alarm before settling back into the afternoon, using 3:00 pm as a clear point to get up, find the prescription and prepare to leave. Those 11 minutes are enough to shake off the nap and gather what you need without letting the pickup slip from mind.
Your PBS prescription pickup depends on hearing the alert when it matters, so check the sound now rather than discovering a problem later. Set a brief trial alarm, keep the volume audible and confirm that the tone plays clearly. Then reset it for 3:00 pm. A browser alarm cannot alert you after its page has been closed or if your phone or computer has gone to sleep, which could leave the pharmacy trip forgotten. Keep the page open and the device awake until the alarm sounds.
Leaving for the pharmacy around 3:00 pm can mean stepping into humid afternoon air, depending on where you are in Australia. Before heading out, check the conditions and allow for a slower walk if the air feels heavy. Carry some water, choose a shaded route where practical, and keep the prescription somewhere protected from moisture during the trip.
Common questions
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.
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.
