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.

How to use the online alarm clock

If the school run is tight, an alarm at 6:55 am buys you the minutes you actually need to get everyone dressed, fed, and out the door. Set the time, choose a tone that won't get ignored, and this page will ring at 6:55 am through your speakers for as long as you let it.

Select a sound, hit Start, and that's the whole setup. The countdown runs inside this browser tab rather than on your device's operating system, so it needs to remain open, on a phone or laptop, until the alarm actually goes off.

A browser alarm like this one is handy when your phone's on silent, charging in another room, or you just don't want to unlock it and get pulled into notifications. The trade-off is honesty: it only rings while this tab stays open, so it's not a replacement for your phone alarm on a trip where the laptop lid might close. On a 24-hour clock 6:55 am is written 06:55, and spoken aloud it's five to seven in the morning. You'll also see it written 6.55 am — a full stop instead of the colon means the same time. Set an alarm for 6:55 am, set the alarm to 6:55 am, set my alarm for 6:55 am — all of it lands on this page and does the same thing.

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.
