Going to bed for a 10:22 am alarm

Asleep by 1:07 am — 6 full sleep cycles, about 9 hours
Asleep by 2:37 am — 5 full sleep cycles, about 7 hours
Asleep by 4:07 am — 4 full sleep cycles, about 6 hours

A sleep cycle runs about 90 minutes, and most people take around 15 minutes to drop off. Waking at the end of a cycle feels easier than waking in the middle of one.

How to use the online alarm clock

As you finish what you are doing and head out, set the 10:22 am alarm so you return home in time to meet the district nurse. It gives you a clear point to leave, rather than relying on another glance at the clock. With 11:00 am approaching, there is still room to put away your things, make the journey back and settle in before the visit.

Because you are leaving, keep this alarm page running while you are away and check that its sound is audible first. Closing the page or browser ends the alarm, so it cannot remind you to meet the district nurse when 10:22 am arrives. If the computer may be left behind or allowed to sleep, use a separate alarm on something that will remain active with you.

After the district nurse has left, decide whether any remaining sleep would fit the rest of your morning without disrupting what follows. If you plan to lie down again, leave the curtains partly open and set a second, later alarm before getting comfortable. Daylight can make the room feel less like bedtime, while a firm waking point keeps a short return to bed from quietly taking over the day.

Common questions

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.

Will it still be right when the clocks change?

Yes. It reads your device's local clock, so the move between GMT and BST at the end of March and October is picked up automatically, as long as the computer's date, time and time zone are set correctly.

Can I use this on a phone?

It works in a mobile browser, but phones lock the screen and suspend background tabs far more readily than a laptop does, which can stop the alarm sounding. For anything important, a desktop or a plugged-in laptop is the steadier option.

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.
