Going to bed for a 8:22 am alarm

Asleep by 11:07 pm — 6 full sleep cycles, about 9 hours
Asleep by 12:37 am — 5 full sleep cycles, about 7 hours
Asleep by 2:07 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.

Online alarm clock for 8:22 am

You have only just woken at 8:22 am, and finding a space in the commuter station car park is still the first job ahead. Set the alarm for the point when you need to get out of bed, dress and leave, allowing for the local school-run traffic. Reaching the station before 9:00 am may give you more time to park and walk to the platform without rushing.

Your station-parking plan depends on hearing the alert, so check your phone’s sound settings before settling back. Silent mode can mute or soften browser audio even when the alarm itself is correctly set; choose an audible volume and keep the phone close enough to hear. The alarm cannot safeguard your station space if its page is closed or the phone falls asleep, so leave the page open, keep the phone awake and use a separate alarm as backup.

Because the car park is your first destination, decide now whether any remaining sleep will leave enough time for washing, dressing and the journey. Put keys, railcard and work bag together before lying down again, then set one clear wake-up time rather than several vague alerts. At this early hour, that preparation lets the sleep after 8:22 am end with a simple route from bed to the station.

Common questions

What happens if my laptop goes to sleep before 8:22 am?

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.
