How to use the online alarm clock
Tuesday is the quietest day to plan against, which is exactly why so much gets scheduled into it. Evening classes, club nights, midweek fixtures in the cups, and the appointments that are easier to get precisely because nobody wants a Monday or a Friday.
It is also a favourite of anyone working shifts or compressed hours, where the week does not run Monday to Friday at all and Tuesday might be the first or last working day. An alarm tied to the day rather than to a number of hours takes the arithmetic out of an irregular rota.
This preset finds the next Tuesday and sets an alarm for the same clock time you are setting it at. If today is already Tuesday, it points at the one a week ahead rather than at today.
Common questions
Can I use a weekday preset for a recurring commitment?
Yes — it is aimed at exactly that, though each setting covers a single occurrence rather than repeating automatically.
