Online alarm clock for 9:33 pm

While you watch the clock for the last bus home, set the alarm for 9:33 pm so the departure does not slip past while you check messages or scan the timetable. The alert leaves 27 minutes before 10:00 pm, enough time to confirm the bay, gather your things and move closer to where the bus will pull in.

Keep this alarm page open and your phone awake while you wait. If you close the page or browser, or let the phone go to sleep, the alarm cannot sound and you could miss the last bus. Leave the volume at a level you can hear over evening traffic, and avoid switching to silent mode. A quick glance at the displayed time can confirm that 9:33 pm is still set.

Waiting late in the evening can make a snack tempting, especially if dinner was hours ago. Before 9:33 pm, choose something easy to pack away, such as a banana or a small muesli bar, rather than food that takes time or leaves messy wrapping. Keep water handy, but save a large drink or a hot takeaway beverage until you are safely aboard, so packing up does not distract you when the bus approaches.

Common questions

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.

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.
