How to use the online alarm clock
If evenings tend to slip away in front of a screen, setting an alarm for 7:39 pm gives you a fixed point to stop and do something else. This page rings at 7:39 pm through your device's speakers until you dismiss it.
Using it is simple: pick a ringtone from the list, press Start, and leave this tab open in your browser. The alarm runs entirely on this page, so closing the browser will stop it from going off. Come back a minute early if you're not sure you trust it yet.
Compared to a phone, this alarm has one job and nothing else competing for attention — no messages, no app switching. It's free and doesn't ask for sign-up, but it only works while the tab is open and the device stays awake, so it suits daytime use at a desk better than an overnight bedroom alarm. On a 24-hour clock 7:39 pm is written 19:39, and spoken aloud it's twenty-one minutes to eight in the evening. Timetables and rosters may show it as 19:39, and handwritten notes as 7.39 pm. Set an alarm for 7:39 pm, set the alarm to 7:39 pm, set my alarm for 7:39 pm — all of it lands on this page and does the same thing.
Common questions
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.
Will the alarm still ring if I close the browser tab?
No. The alarm only runs while this tab stays open — closing it, or closing the browser entirely, stops the countdown before it can ring. Keep the tab open in the background if you need it to go off later.
Does the alarm work if my laptop goes to sleep?
Not reliably. If the device sleeps or the screen locks, the browser tab pauses along with it, so the alarm may not fire on time or at all. Adjust your power settings if you're relying on this over a longer stretch.
Do I need to create an account or download anything?
No, there's nothing to sign up for and nothing to install. Pick a time and a sound, press Start, and it runs entirely in this browser tab.
