Online alarm clock for 5:08 pm
You’re watching the clock because your bar shift starts at 5:08 pm, and leaving too early would only mean waiting around before work. Set the alarm for the appointed time, then use the remaining afternoon to get dressed, pack what you need and check your route. With 6:00 pm still 52 minutes away, this alert keeps your attention on the actual shift start rather than the round hour.
For a bar shift, the alarm is only useful if the phone or computer stays awake until it fires. Keep the browser running, leave the sound audible and connect a charger if the battery is low. Closing this page or allowing the phone to sleep means the alarm cannot sound, so the bar shift could begin while you are still waiting for the signal. A separate phone alarm is a sensible backup when punctuality depends on one alert.
A 5:08 pm start may lead into a late finish, so protect the sleep available after work before the afternoon gets away from you. Decide now how you will travel home, especially if buses become less frequent later, and leave tomorrow morning free of avoidable errands where possible. Preparing a drink bottle, keys and work clothes before the alarm also makes the departure calmer without borrowing extra time from the rest that follows the shift.
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.
