Online alarm clock for 8:01 pm
You have only just woken at 8:01 pm, and the Queensland–New South Wales match is still something you need to get ready to watch. Set the alarm for the point when you want to be properly awake, rather than relying on a groggy glance at the clock. That leaves the rest of the hour before 9:00 pm for getting settled and finding the broadcast.
With the match as your reason for getting up, check how your phone or computer handles sound before you rest again. Silent mode may prevent the alert from being audible even when the alarm itself is running, so raise the volume and test that you can hear it from where you are lying. If you close this page or let the device fall asleep, the alarm cannot sound, which could leave you waking after the match has begun.
A Queensland–New South Wales night can grow louder as other viewers arrive, conversation picks up and the broadcast volume rises towards 9:00 pm. Put your device close enough that the alarm will stand out from that changing background noise, but away from anything likely to cover its speaker. If the room is quiet now, choose an alert you will still recognise once the evening becomes busier.
Common questions
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.
Can I change the alarm sound?
Yes, there's a short list of tones to choose from before you press Start. Pick whichever one you're most likely to actually hear — softer sounds are easier to sleep through than a firm chime or bell.
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.
