Online alarm clock for 3:43 pm

Getting ready now to leave work at 3:43 pm gives you a clear cue to pack up before the evening traffic builds. Set the alarm while you finish the last small tasks, gather your keys and check the route home. When it sounds, you can head out with 17 minutes still remaining before 4:00 pm rather than noticing the clock after the roads have filled.

Your trip home depends on hearing the signal amid office conversations, air conditioning and nearby traffic, so check the alarm volume against the noise around you. Keep the phone close enough for the sound to be distinct, and avoid covering its speaker with papers or a bag. This browser alarm may stay silent if the page is no longer active or the phone has gone to sleep, which could delay your drive home into heavier traffic.

Leaving in the mid-afternoon can preserve a useful buffer before the next commitment later today. Allow a few minutes after the alarm for shutting down your computer, using the lift and reaching the car park, especially in a busy CBD office. That margin keeps a slow exit from consuming the time reserved for errands, school pickup or anything else scheduled after the commute.

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.
