Online alarm clock for 8:44 pm

Getting ready early for a call with London gives you time to check your notes, plug in your phone and set an alarm for 8:44 pm before you need it. With London already into its working morning, the reminder can mark the point when you stop preparing and get settled for the conversation. There are 16 minutes until 9:00 pm, enough time for a quick audio check without letting the evening drift.

While your notes or calling app takes over the screen, this alarm page may sit in the background. Some browsers reduce activity for background pages, so leave the browser running, keep this page available and make sure its sound is permitted. If the browser is closed or your phone goes to sleep, the London call reminder will not sound. A brief test beforehand can confirm that the volume is audible and that switching apps has not silenced the page.

By 8:44 pm, household noise can be quite different from earlier in the evening: a television may be on, dishes may be clattering, or traffic outside may finally be easing. Set the volume above the sound around you, then place the phone close enough to hear without making it part of the call setup. If the room becomes quieter near 9:00 pm, a moderate alarm tone should still stand out without being unnecessarily sharp.

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.
