Online alarm clock for 7:04 pm
As you hand the feijoa picking over to the next person at 7:04 pm, point out which trees are still loaded and where the crates should go. Set this alarm for the changeover, so the new picker has a clear cue to finish the exposed fruit before the night wind arrives. There is enough evening left to work steadily towards 8:00 pm without making the handover feel rushed.
With the picking now in someone else’s hands, leave this browser page where you can readily check it and keep the sound level audible. A background tab may be slowed by the browser, especially when power-saving settings take over, so bring the alarm page forward again after switching between tasks. Your feijoas may remain outside overnight if the page closes or the screen goes to sleep, because a browser alarm cannot sound once it is no longer running.
Once the next picker knows the route through the trees, pause for a glass of water and a small snack that will not leave sticky hands on fruit or crates. Keep a full meal until the feijoas are under cover and the handover is complete; at this point in the evening, something simple such as crackers or a banana is easier to manage between trips to the shed.
Common questions
Does daylight saving change the alarm time?
The alarm follows the clock and time zone reported by your device. Clocks move forward in September and back in April, so confirm the displayed date and time after a change. Check overseas invitations carefully because other places may change clocks on different dates or not at all.
Can the alarm account for a public holiday or Matariki?
No. It sounds at the time you set and does not read school terms, regional anniversary days, Matariki dates, or public-holiday transport schedules. Check the relevant calendar and live operator timetable, particularly when a weekday service may be running less often.
Why might I not hear the alarm?
The tab may have been closed, the device may have slept or lost power, or audio may be muted, blocked, or routed to another speaker. Keep the page open, test browser permissions and volume, and use a separate dependable alarm if waking or meeting the time is critical.
Can I use the alarm as my signal to leave for a ferry or flight?
Yes, as a personal reminder, but it cannot see check-in requirements, queues, cancellations, Cook Strait wind, road closures, or delays on the way to the terminal. Confirm the operator's current advice and set the time with enough margin for the entire journey.
