Online alarm clock for 8:24 pm
Pause midway through what you are doing and set an alarm for 8:24 pm, so you can break away and close the shutters before the wind picks up overnight. It gives the task its own firm place in the evening instead of leaving it until you happen to remember. You can still finish a few nearby jobs before 9:00 pm once the shutters are secured.
A quick sound check now removes uncertainty when 8:24 pm arrives. Set the alarm, choose a volume you will notice from the room where you are working, and test it while you are still close enough to hear the result. Keep the browser alarm active and your phone awake; otherwise no sound will pull you back to the shutters when it is time to stop.
Closing the shutters at 8:24 pm also keeps the job from drifting into the part of the evening you meant to spend winding down. Put anything needed beside the window beforehand, including the latch key if yours requires one, then return it to its usual spot when finished. That small bit of preparation leaves fewer loose ends between this reminder and sleep later tonight.
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.
