Alarm Clock
Set a free browser alarm clock with custom labels, bell and nature sounds, and local storage. Wake up, take meds, or mark meetings without installing an app.
How to Use
- Open the alarm clock page and allow sound if your browser prompts for audio permission.
- Choose hour, minute, and AM or PM, then add an optional label that describes the purpose.
- Pick a sound from bell, digital, birds, ocean, or chime presets.
- Press Add to place the alarm in your list and confirm the toggle is enabled.
- Leave the tab open or install TimerClock as a PWA so the alarm can fire on time.
Features
- Multiple labeled alarms visible in one scrollable list
- 12-hour time picker with AM and PM selector
- Sound presets including bell, digital, birds, ocean, and chime
- Quick time presets for common morning and evening hours
- Local storage so alarms persist between browser sessions

Real-World Use Cases
- Kitchen tablet wake-up for kids before the school bus
- Desk lunch-break reminder while working from home
- Backup alarm when your phone charger is across the room

Practical Examples
Set 6:30 for wake-up and 7:10 for shoes-by-the-door, each with its own label and sound.
Add a 12:30 PM alarm labeled "eat away from screen" using the ocean sound for a calmer break.

Tips & Best Practices

Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Closing the laptop lid without checking sleep settings and missing the alarm.
- Muting system volume globally and forgetting the alarm channel.
- Adding duplicate times without labels until the list is unreadable.
