How to use the online alarm clock
Waking at 10:59 pm leaves no time to drift if you meant to catch the fountains by the tower at their scheduled showing. The clock reaches 11:00 pm in a minute, so use the alarm as a firm cue to sit up, check what you need, and start moving rather than settling back under the covers.
With the fountain schedule so close, leave this alarm page visible as the deadline approaches. A browser may reduce or suspend activity when its page stays in the background, which can delay the sound or prevent it from playing reliably. If the browser session ends or the phone falls asleep, the alarm will not sound, so it cannot protect the fountain schedule on its own. Keep a separate phone alarm for anything you cannot afford to miss.
Before heading towards the tower this late in the evening, a few sips of water and a small, familiar snack are practical if you have only just woken. Save a full meal, very hot drink, or anything awkward to carry until after the fountains; rushing with food at 11:00 pm adds another task when the scheduled showing already sets the pace.
Common questions
Can I use the same feature on a phone?
You can use the page on a smartphone and follow the countdown until 10:59 pm. The browser may lose permission to stay active once the phone locks or another app takes over, which can suppress the audio, so a mains-powered desktop or laptop is the more reliable choice when the reminder is important.
Will the alarm still sound after I close this tab?
No. An alarm set for 10:59 pm runs within the open webpage, so closing its tab or exiting the browser stops it. You can move to another tab or minimise the browser while you work; just keep the alarm page loaded.
If I close the tab, will the alarm still go off?
Closing the tab cancels the alarm because the timer for 10:59 pm is handled by that page, not by your device as a separate system alarm. Leaving the page open in the background is fine, even if another tab is on screen.
Does closing the browser tab stop the alarm from ringing?
The page must remain open for the 10:59 pm alarm to sound. Switching tabs, minimising the window, or using another application will not end it, but closing the alarm tab or quitting the browser will.
