How to use the online alarm clock
Break away from what you are doing at 1:11 pm so you have a clear moment to prepare to give evidence at the tribunal hearing. A prompt at this exact time can separate your current task from the documents, notes and practical details you need next, rather than letting the approach of 2:00 pm catch you still occupied.
Your tribunal hearing should not depend on a signal you cannot hear, so check the phone’s sound level and silent-mode setting before relying on the alarm. Choose a distinct tone and place the phone where it will be audible without interrupting anyone nearby. The alarm relies on the browser remaining active and the phone staying awake; if either stops, the tribunal hearing cue will not sound.
Lunch-time conversation, kitchen noise and movement through shared spaces can mask a brief alert around 1:11 pm. Keep the phone close until the alarm has sounded, especially if you are working in a café, court waiting area or busy office. As the lunch rush eases towards 2:00 pm, move somewhere quieter to review your notes and listen for announcements about the hearing.
Common questions
Does the alarm still work if I close the tab?
No. Everything runs inside this page, so closing the tab — or quitting the browser altogether — ends the countdown there and then. Leaving it open in the background is all it asks, and switching to another tab makes no difference.
What happens if my laptop goes to sleep before 1:11 pm?
The tab sleeps along with it and the alarm will not sound on time, if at all. If you are relying on it, change the power settings so the machine stays awake, or keep a phone alarm running as well.
Do I need an account or an app?
Neither. Choose a time and a sound, press Start, and it runs in this browser tab. Nothing is downloaded, nothing is registered, and closing the page leaves nothing behind on the device.
Can I change the sound?
Yes, there is a short list of tones to pick from before you press Start. Softer sounds are easy to sleep through, so a firmer bell tends to be the safer choice for anything early in the morning.
