Online alarm clock for 4:26 pm
You have just woken up at 4:26 pm, and the dog walk can wait until the pavement has shed more of the afternoon heat. Setting an alarm now gives you a clear point to get moving instead of drifting back to sleep. By 5:00 pm, outdoor surfaces may feel more manageable, though checking the pavement with the back of your hand is still sensible before heading out.
Your dog may be pacing, the television may be on, or traffic noise may be coming through an open window, so set the alarm volume where you can hear it above that background sound. A quick test signal can confirm it is noticeable from the room where you will be waiting. Closing the alarm page or allowing the phone to sleep can leave the dog walk without a sound at 4:26 pm, so use a separate phone alarm if missing it would disrupt your plans.
While you are waking into the late afternoon, avoid staring at a bright screen in a dim room as you organise the lead and water. Lower the display brightness enough to read comfortably, then place the phone where the alarm remains audible without keeping it close to your face. Natural light near a window can also make checking the time easier before you step outside.
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.
