Online alarm clock for 5:59 pm
While you watch the clock at 5:59 pm, the netball gear can stay by the door until it is time to take your child to their session. The alarm marks the moment to leave without making you keep checking the minute display. With 6:00 pm about to arrive, you can finish gathering a drink bottle, keys and anything needed for the trip.
Because this alarm runs in your browser, keep the page open while you wait and make sure the sound on your phone or computer is audible. If you close the tab or browser, or allow the device to sleep, the alarm cannot alert you that it is time to leave for netball. A quick sound check beforehand can also prevent a muted setting from turning the visible alert into something you miss while sorting bags near the door.
The trip to netball may begin as afternoon activity around the house and street starts shifting towards evening. Television, conversations, traffic and children getting ready can make a browser alarm harder to notice at 5:59 pm, even as some outdoor sounds begin to ease near 6:00 pm. Keep your device in the room where you are preparing, with its speaker uncovered, rather than leaving it under clothing or inside a packed bag.
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.
