Going to bed for a 6:55 am alarm

  • Asleep by 9:40 pm — 6 full sleep cycles, about 9 hours
  • Asleep by 11:10 pm — 5 full sleep cycles, about 7 hours
  • Asleep by 12:40 am — 4 full sleep cycles, about 6 hours

A sleep cycle runs about 90 minutes, and most people take around 15 minutes to drop off. Waking at the end of a cycle feels easier than waking in the middle of one.

Online alarm clock for 6:55 am

You’re finishing the job of opening the public cricket ground, checking the gate and heading off as the first players arrive. Set the alarm for 6:55 am so you have a clear cue to wrap up before 7:00 am, rather than watching the clock while you handle the last latch, light or equipment check.

Your departure may need either a gentle reminder or a sound that cuts through conversation near the nets. Choose a softer tone if the grounds are still quiet and your phone is close; use a more insistent tone if players are warming up nearby or the phone will stay in your pocket. Check the volume before relying on it. The alarm remains dependable only while this page is open and your phone stays awake; otherwise, your cricket handover could pass without the alert sounding.

As you leave the cricket ground, listen for how quickly the surroundings are changing. Bird calls and light traffic can give way to bouncing balls, voices and cars arriving around 7:00 am, making a tone that seemed obvious a few minutes earlier harder to notice. Keep the phone away from kit bags or metal benches that might muffle or distort it, and select a distinct sound instead of simply raising the volume.

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.
