Online alarm clock for 5:51 pm
You are setting up the 5:51 pm alarm ahead of time, so the sheep can be let out once the day’s heat has eased rather than while you are occupied elsewhere. It leaves a clear marker just before 6:00 pm, a useful point for checking the yard, gates and water before moving the flock.
For this sheep-release cue, choose a sound that matches where you will be at 5:51 pm. A softer tone can suit a quiet verandah or nearby shed, while a more insistent one makes sense if engines, gates or farm noise could cover it. Test the volume from the place where you expect to hear it. Keep this browser alarm open and the device awake; otherwise the sheep-release signal will not sound when needed.
As the flock waits for the cooler end of the afternoon, keep screen brightness low enough for the softer light but high enough to read the alarm controls without leaning in. Position the phone out of direct glare, then confirm the displayed 5:51 pm time before setting it down. That reduces unnecessary screen checking while you finish preparations for the sheep.
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.
