Online alarm clock for 5:23 pm
While you are getting ready to move cattle in from the far paddock, set the 5:23 pm alarm before loading the ute and checking gates, water points and the route back. That leaves a clear marker in the afternoon rather than relying on someone to notice the time during preparations. With 6:00 pm approaching, the alert can separate the final gear check from the moment you head out.
Because the cattle run may keep you away longer than expected, leave the alarm on a phone or computer that will remain awake until it sounds. Check the volume, keep the browser running and avoid a power-saving setting that blanks everything early. If the browser is closed or the device falls asleep, the alarm cannot sound, and the cattle move may start late. A quick test beforehand can confirm that the selected alert is audible where the device will sit.
As activity around the yards begins to settle late in the afternoon, listen for how engine noise, dogs and nearby machinery affect what you can hear. Keep the alarm close enough to stand out at 5:23 pm, especially if the phone is left inside the ute. If the surroundings become quieter toward 6:00 pm, a moderate alert may carry clearly without startling stock near the gate.
Common questions
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.
Is this alarm accurate across daylight saving time?
It uses your device's local clock, so as long as your computer's time and date settings are correct, it'll adjust automatically when daylight saving time starts or ends.
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.
