Online alarm clock for 4:01 pm

You have just woken at 4:01 pm, and the last ferry across the bay is now the reason to get moving. Set the alarm for the time you need to leave, allowing a realistic margin for the drive, parking and the walk to the terminal. With 5:00 pm approaching, check the sailing details you already have before settling on that departure time.

A ferry departure calls for an alarm tone that suits how easily you might drift off again. A softer sound can ease you out of a light rest, while a persistent tone makes more sense if missing it would leave too little time to reach the wharf. Check the volume with a brief preview, then leave the alarm running. If the browser is no longer active when it is due, the ferry alarm will not sound, so use a separate backup if the sailing cannot wait.

Getting ready for the bay crossing in the late afternoon may mean looking from a dim room towards bright Australian daylight. Keep the screen brightness low while checking the alarm, then raise it only enough to read the departure information clearly. Placing the phone slightly away from your face can also make the first glance less harsh before you stand, gather your keys and head out.

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.
