Online alarm clock for 9:11 am
As you hand the university exam arrangements over to someone else, set the alarm for 9:11 am so the changeover happens at the agreed moment. That leaves a clear checkpoint before 10:00 am for confirming the room, permitted materials and who is handling the next task. A precise alert also avoids relying on one person to keep watching the clock during a busy campus morning.
While the exam details are being passed across, keep this alarm page active enough for the browser to run it. A page moved into the background will usually continue counting, so you can check a timetable or message the other person without losing the set time. However, if the browser is closed or the computer goes to sleep, the exam reminder will not sound. Leave the computer awake, keep its volume audible and use a separate alarm if missing the handover would cause a problem.
Before the other person takes charge, check how the morning light falls across the desk and screen. Australian sunshine can become sharp through an east-facing window by this point, making small timetable notes harder to read. Adjust the blind or move the screen before 9:11 am, then leave enough light on the printed exam information to distinguish room numbers and start times without reaching for switches during the handover.
Common questions
Is this alarm accurate across daylight saving time?
It uses your device's local clock, so as long as your computer's time and date settings are correct, it'll adjust automatically when daylight saving time starts or ends.
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.
