Online alarm clock for 9:56 pm
While you watch the clock for the evening farm round, set the alarm for 9:56 pm so you can wait without repeatedly checking the minutes. It gives you a clear cue just before 10:00 pm, whether you are finishing a cuppa, checking the run sheet or gathering a torch and keys.
A farm round may need a gentle chime if the house is quiet, but a more persistent tone can help when fans, rain on a tin roof or machinery might mask the first sound. Choose a volume and tone that suit those surroundings, then keep the browser running and the sound audible. If the browser is stopped or the phone becomes inactive, the alarm may not sound and the farm round could begin late, so use a separate alarm when timing cannot slip.
Before heading outside at 9:56 pm, check how damp the air feels near the door rather than judging it from indoors. Evening humidity can leave gates, rails and grass wet even without obvious rain. A light outer layer and footwear with reliable grip can make the round more comfortable, while a torch kept clear of mist or condensation will be easier to use around sheds and paddocks.
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.
