How to use the online alarm clock
Saturday is the first day of the weekend and the busier of the two, so the alarms set for it are rarely about work. Children's sport and swimming lessons start early, the brunch tables fill from the late morning, and in the cooler months the desert tracks and beaches want an early departure to be worth it.
It is also the day people set an alarm they would rather not need — an early start for a drive out of the city, or a booking that will not hold if the morning slips. Anyone who has tried to reach Hatta after nine on a Saturday in February understands why.
This preset sets the alarm for your chosen time on the next Saturday. Over that kind of interval the tab has to survive several days, so treat it as a prompt rather than as a guarantee.
Common questions
Why set an early alarm on a Saturday?
Children's activities start early, and in the cooler months anything outside the city needs an early departure to be worth doing.
