Online alarm clock for 6:45 pm
As you hand over the job of getting the children to swimming, a 6:45 pm alarm can mark the moment the next adult needs to take charge. It leaves 15 minutes before 7:00 pm, enough time to confirm who has the goggles, towels and pool bag before everyone heads out.
For this swimming handover, the alert needs to be audible rather than merely visible on the screen. Silent mode or a low media volume may stop the sound from getting anyone’s attention, so the current settings are worth checking beforehand. This browser alarm cannot sound once its page is closed or the phone goes to sleep, which means the children’s swimming changeover could be missed without another reminder.
With the late afternoon run to the pool approaching, a small snack and some water can fit comfortably before departure. A heavy meal is usually easier to leave until after swimming, particularly when the drive, changing rooms and lesson all fall close together. Keeping a filled water bottle beside the pool bag also makes the 6:45 pm handover simpler for whoever is taking over.
Common questions
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.
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.
