What Is the Online Alarm Clock?
The online alarm clock is a web tool designed to help you wake up on time and set reminders for tasks throughout the day.
To use our free online alarm clock, just choose your desired time, select the alarm sound, give your alarm a name, and set the alarm. Then keep the browser tab open for the alarm to work. Once set, the alarm will alert you at the time you set.
If you need a timer where you set the duration instead of a specific time, check the online timer.
How to Set an Online Alarm
Using this alarm clock is simple:
- Check the current time from the digital clock on top before setting an alarm.
- Under Set alarm time, select Hours and Minutes, or use the pre-selected alarm times.
- Pick your preferred Alarm sound from the list.
- Give your alarm a title under Alarm name (optional).
- Click Set an alarm to set the alarm clock.
Once you set the alarm, the screen changes to show a countdown timer. The countdown displays how much time remains until your alarm, along with the alarm time itself (the exact time the alarm rings). While the alarm is counting down, you can:
- Click the fullscreen icon (top right) to display the countdown in fullscreen mode.
- Click the bulb icon to open a completely dark fullscreen display (useful for keeping your screen on without distraction).
- Click Stop to cancel the alarm before it goes off.
When the countdown reaches zero and the alarm sounds, you will then see two options:
- Click Stop to end the alarm.
- Click Snooze to delay it for 10 minutes.
To set multiple alarms, open another tab and repeat the steps above.

- Adjust alarm volume
- Change the default snooze duration
- Enable/disable repeat alarm sound
- Show/hide the finish time (when the alarm will sound)
- Show/hide the progress bar
