How to use the online alarm clock
While getting ready for the fountain show, set an alarm for 11:12 pm so you can leave before the crowd gathers. This advance reminder gives you a clear point to finish what you are doing, collect your essentials and check the route. With 12:00 am approaching, those 48 minutes can cover the journey and a short walk to a viewing spot without turning the evening into a rush.
Your fountain-show reminder depends on this browser page staying active and the phone remaining awake; if either stops, the alarm will not sound when you need to head out. Leave the page open, keep the phone connected to power if its battery is low, and raise the media volume to a level you can hear from across the room. A quick sound check before settling down confirms that silent mode or audio settings will not undermine the plan.
Because the trip begins late in the evening, sort out the lighting before 11:12 pm arrives. Switch on the entrance light, place keys where they are easy to see, and use a well-lit route from the car park or Metro exit. Reducing screen brightness after setting the alarm can also make it easier to look away from the phone while waiting, without leaving you searching through a dark room when the reminder sounds.
Common questions
Will my alarm work once I have closed the tab?
No, closing the page stops the alarm rather than leaving it active in the background. For an alert at 11:12 pm, keep that particular tab open; it can sit behind other tabs or inside a minimised browser window.
Does the tab need to stay open for the alarm?
Your device will not take over the alarm after the webpage closes. The tab containing the alarm for 11:12 pm needs to stay loaded until it rings, although you are free to switch windows, check another site, or minimise the browser.
After closing this tab, can I still hear the alarm?
If you close the tab before 11:12 pm, the alarm will not go off because its countdown ends with the page. The tab may remain out of view while you use another one, but the browser and alarm page must stay open.
Must I keep this tab open until the alarm sounds?
The alarm is tied to the current browser session, so shutting the tab or the whole browser prevents the 11:12 pm alert from sounding. Keeping the page open is enough; it can remain in a background tab while you do something else.
