How to use the online alarm clock
While you wait for the signal to unload the fish at Umm Suqeim’s jetty, set the alarm for 5:12 am and keep an eye on the remaining preparations. The scheduled moment comes well before 6:00 am, leaving time afterward to finish handling the catch as the waterfront begins to stir.
Because the alarm runs in the browser, the phone or computer needs to remain awake until 5:12 am. If it falls asleep or the browser closes, the fish-unloading alert will not sound, which could leave the crew waiting at the jetty. Keep the alarm page visible, connect the charger if the battery is low, raise the sound to a clearly audible level, and check that silent mode will not mute the signal.
Before leaving for Umm Suqeim in the early morning, allow for the full journey rather than relying on usually quiet roads. Approaches near the fishing harbour can still slow as working vehicles arrive, and access to the jetty may take longer than the main drive suggests. Check the route shortly before departure, include time for parking and carrying equipment, and aim to reach the waterfront ahead of 5:12 am so the alarm marks the planned unloading moment rather than a deadline still being chased.
Common questions
Is an app download or account registration required to use this?
No download or sign-in is involved. The alarm for 5:12 am works directly inside the open browser tab, so you can arrange it without creating a profile, and closing the page ends the session without keeping your settings on the device.
Can I use this without installing anything or signing up?
Think of it as a temporary alarm page rather than a service you join. Once 5:12 am is selected, everything operates in that browser tab, with no app added, no account opened, and no alarm information retained after the page is closed.
Will I have to install an app or register first?
You can use the alarm on a shared computer or your own phone without registering either one. Select 5:12 am in the browser and keep that tab running; there is no application to download, and the page does not preserve your setup when you close it.
Does this require an account or any software to be downloaded?
An email address, password, and app-store visit are not part of the setup. Your alarm at 5:12 am runs from the current browser tab only, and when that tab is closed, the session and its selected settings are not stored for later use.
