Going to bed for a 9:07 am alarm

  • Asleep by 11:52 pm — 6 full sleep cycles, about 9 hours
  • Asleep by 1:22 am — 5 full sleep cycles, about 7 hours
  • Asleep by 2:52 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

Getting out the door for the school run or the commute into the city gets easier when 9:07 am is locked in properly. Choose a sound, hit start, and this browser alarm will ring at 9:07 am whether you're upstairs making lunches or still half asleep. Just keep the tab open so it has a chance to go off.

There's a short list of sounds to choose from before you press Start — pick one that suits how deep a sleeper you are. Once it's set, the page keeps time in the background of your browser, and it'll sound at the moment you selected, provided the tab hasn't been closed.

Unlike a phone alarm, this one won't ring if you close the tab, put the computer to sleep, or shut the lid, so it suits a desk, a kitchen bench, or anywhere the device stays powered on and awake. It's free to use and doesn't need an account, but it's not built for unattended overnight use. On a 24-hour clock 9:07 am is written 09:07, and spoken aloud it's seven minutes past nine in the morning. Timetables and rosters may show it as 09:07, and handwritten notes as 9.07 am. Set an alarm for 9:07 am, set the alarm to 9:07 am, set my alarm for 9:07 am — all of it lands on this page and does the same thing.

Common questions

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.

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.
