How to use the online alarm clock
Setting an alarm for 3:29 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 3:29 pm through your speakers. No sign-up, no app, just a tab left open.
Choose a sound before you press Start — something like a chime or a classic bell tends to work better than anything too gentle. Once it's running, the countdown happens right here in the browser, which means the tab needs to stay open in the background rather than being closed.
A browser alarm like this one is handy when your phone's on silent, charging in another room, or you just don't want to unlock it and get pulled into notifications. The trade-off is honesty: it only rings while this tab stays open, so it's not a replacement for your phone alarm on a trip where the laptop lid might close. On a 24-hour clock 3:29 pm is written 15:29, and spoken aloud it's twenty-nine minutes past three in the afternoon. Timetables and rosters may show it as 15:29, and handwritten notes as 3.29 pm. If you need it loud, turn the system volume up before you start: the alarm plays at whatever the device is set to.
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.
