How to Set an Alarm on vTickr

Setting an alarm on vTickr is quick and simple. Follow these steps:

Step-by-Step Instructions

⚠️ Important Note

For the alarm to work, you must keep the vTickr browser tab open. The alarm will not sound if the tab is closed. For best results, keep vTickr open in a pinned tab or as a separate window.

Tips for Better Morning Routines

1. Set Multiple Alarms

Instead of relying on one alarm, set 2-3 alarms spaced 5-10 minutes apart. This gives you backup wake-up calls and helps heavy sleepers get out of bed.

2. Place Your Device Away from Bed

When using an online alarm on your laptop or tablet, place it across the room. This forces you to physically get up to turn off the alarm, making it harder to fall back asleep.

3. Use Consistent Wake Times

Try to wake up at the same time every day, even on weekends. This helps regulate your body's internal clock and makes waking up easier over time.

4. Prepare the Night Before

Set your alarm before you go to bed, not when you're already sleepy. Double-check the time and make sure your volume is turned up.

5. Create a Morning Routine

Having something to look forward to in the morningβ€”like a good breakfast or a few minutes of readingβ€”can make getting up easier and more enjoyable.

πŸ’‘ Pro Tip: The 90-Minute Rule

Sleep cycles last approximately 90 minutes. Try to set your alarm to wake up at the end of a sleep cycle (after 6, 7.5, or 9 hours of sleep) to feel more refreshed and less groggy.

Common Alarm Use Cases

Morning Wake-Up

The most common use for an alarm clock. Set your alarm 15-30 minutes before you need to leave, giving yourself time to get ready without rushing.

Power Naps

A 20-25 minute nap can boost alertness and performance. Set a short alarm to avoid oversleeping and feeling groggy.

Medication Reminders

Set alarms at specific times to remind yourself to take medications or vitamins consistently.

Meeting Reminders

Set an alarm 10-15 minutes before important meetings or calls to give yourself time to prepare.

Break Reminders

Working from home? Set alarms to remind yourself to take regular breaks, stretch, or rest your eyes from the screen.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will the alarm work if my computer goes to sleep?

No, if your computer enters sleep mode, the alarm will not sound. Make sure to adjust your power settings to prevent sleep, or use your phone as a backup alarm.

Can I use the alarm on my phone?

Yes! vTickr works on mobile browsers. However, for best results on phones, keep the browser app open and your phone unlocked, as some mobile browsers pause background tabs.

Why can't I hear the alarm?

Make sure your device volume is turned up and not muted. Also, check that your browser has permission to play sounds. Some browsers block audio until you interact with the page.

Do my alarms save when I close the browser?

Yes, your alarm settings are saved in your browser's local storage. They will be there when you return to vTickr. However, saved alarms won't ring unless the page is open.

Can I set a recurring daily alarm?

Currently, alarms need to be set manually. However, once set, your alarms remain in the list and can be easily toggled on each day.

Is there a snooze function?

The current version allows you to stop the alarm and set a new one. A dedicated snooze feature may be added in future updates.
