Online alarm clock for 9:35 pm
Waking at 9:35 pm for the guard shift, you may still be gathering your bearings before boots, keys and radio are ready. The next 25 minutes leave enough room to get dressed, check the roster and reach the handover point without rushing. A 10:00 pm start also gives the outgoing guard a clear time for passing on notes.
Because this reminder must last through the preparation period, the mobile or computer needs to remain awake until it sounds. If the screen locks into sleep or the browser is closed, the alarm may stay silent and the guard shift could miss its prompt. Keeping the alarm page open, the sound turned up and the device connected to power reduces the chance of losing the reminder while gear is being collected.
During a late-evening wake-up, a bright screen can feel harsh against a dark bedroom or dim staff area. Lower brightness before reading the shift notes, and use a warmer display setting if the device provides one. Placing the phone where the alarm remains audible but does not shine directly towards your face also makes it easier to check the time without filling the room with light.
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.
