How to use the online alarm clock
Preparing early for an evening jury session means setting the 11:10 pm alarm while your papers, clothes and travel details are still in front of you. It creates a clear cue before the evening slips towards 12:00 am, leaving you free to finish getting ready without repeatedly checking the clock.
Your jury commitment may call for a discreet alert if other people are nearby, or a more persistent sound if you might be distracted. Choose a gentle tone for a quiet room and a sharper one when background noise could mask it, then check that the volume is audible. Keep this page open and your phone awake: otherwise, the jury alarm may not sound and you could miss the moment you planned around.
Late-evening preparation can feel very different in a warm, air-conditioned room. If the air conditioning leaves the space chilly, keep a light layer beside your jury papers so you are not searching for one when 11:10 pm arrives. In warmer conditions, place water with the items you need and keep them away from direct airflow, which can scatter loose notes. A quick check of the room before settling down helps the alarm remain easy to hear over a fan or cooling unit.
Common questions
What happens if my laptop goes to sleep before 11:10 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.
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.
