How to use the online alarm clock
While you watch the clock for 6:40 am, keep your racquet and water ready so you can leave as soon as the alarm sounds and secure the court while the sun is still low. The timing leaves a useful window before 7:00 am, when more players may begin arriving and the early light starts to strengthen.
Your court booking is easier to trust if you test the alarm before relying on it: set a temporary signal for the next minute, confirm that it is loud enough, then restore 6:40 am. Check the phone’s sound level as part of that trial. If the browser session ends or the phone goes to sleep, the court alarm will not sound, so keep the page active and the phone awake until the set moment.
As you wait to head out, listen for the change from a quiet residential morning to delivery vehicles, building activity and gathering road traffic. Place the phone close enough that those rising sounds cannot mask the signal, but avoid leaving it under clothing or inside a zipped sports bag. At this early hour in the UAE, a clear alarm can separate a calm departure from getting caught in the busier approach to 7:00 am.
Common questions
Will this page still work when opened on my handset?
It works through the browser on a phone, whether you are checking 6:40 am at home or while commuting in Dubai. Mobile devices are quick to pause tabs when the screen is locked, however, so the alarm might not sound; use a desktop or a laptop connected to power for an important event.
Can I use the same feature on a phone?
You can use the page on a smartphone and follow the countdown until 6:40 am. 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 6:40 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 6:40 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.
