How to use the online alarm clock
You have just woken up, and collecting your shipment from the customs warehouse is still the first unfinished job of the day. Set the alarm for 11:16 am before getting ready, then use the remaining morning to check your documents, Emirates ID and collection reference. That leaves a clear point before 12:00 pm to stop preparing and head out.
While you gather the customs paperwork, this alarm page may slip behind maps, messages or another browser screen. It should continue counting while its tab remains open in the background, but some phones restrict inactive browser pages. Keep the browser session running and avoid letting the phone sleep for long: otherwise, the alarm for the customs warehouse may not sound when you need to leave.
Because the warehouse collection sits near the end of the morning, decide what must happen after it before setting off. Allow for the drive, parking, security checks and any queue, then reserve a separate block for your next commitment that day. If the collection takes longer than expected, that buffer keeps one delay from pushing everything else into the afternoon.
Common questions
Will the alarm still sound after I close this tab?
No. An alarm set for 11:16 am 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 11:16 am 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 11:16 am 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.
Can the alarm ring if this tab is no longer open?
Think of the browser tab as the alarm's running space: once that tab is closed, the alarm scheduled for 11:16 am can no longer continue. It does not need to stay visible, so you may minimise the window or browse elsewhere.
