Review summary

Created with AI, based on recent reviews

Considering 23 reviews, most reviewers were unhappy with their experience overall. Many people were dissatisfied because they were unexpectedly banned from the website, often after years of consistent use. This led to frustration, as they found themselves unable to access a service they relied on for alarms and timers, with some even reporting being late for important commitments. Some people also felt that the banning system was unfairly targeting legitimate users, or that it was overly strict and misconfigured, leading to entire internet service providers being blocked. This caused confusion and inconvenience, as users believed they had done nothing wrong to warrant such action.

Tldr; Site is great, but bans randomly. The site is pretty good and simple for what it is. Just an online alarm, and it's free. Had used it for around 3 years to wake up for work. If I had r... See more

I unfortunately cannot give this website 5 stars. Though i understand this is a project essentially manned by one person, when changing ISPs somewhat recently I found I was banned from the website.... See more

Longtime user of the site. I love the memes I get whenever the alarm goes off and I end it. I am sad that when I moved and got a new ISP that I was somehow blocked. I'm guessing it was a ranged thin... See more

A Great Source Of Humor

I think and tell people every time I see them that the comics I see on onlineclock.net are FUNNY! Unfortunately I can't tell others on TWITTER because I'm blocked by the webmaster for the reason of being a victim to a porn scam where people unknown attached pictures to my I D so that the @TwitterGov people thought poorly of me. Anyway, could you provide a drop screen with snooze on or off. That way my alarm choice would STOP after only 20 times. Thanks.

A reliable and timeless alarm clock…

A reliable and timeless alarm clock that has saved me several times! I cannot recommend it enough! The old internet styling with cheesy memes has a timeless feel to it! In addition the custom alarm tones and clock sizes are a good bonus among other adjustable quirks.

First Time

My first time using Online Clock. It's free. It worked. It was loud. I woke up. I will be on time for a change. I'm happy with it.

Simple and functional

This is a simple digital alarm clock to help keep track of the time. I usually use this website when I study. The functions I used the most are the alarm and the timer. Even though I can set these on the phone, it's more convenient, in my opinion, to do that on the computer while you are working with it.

I use this website EVERY SINGLE DAY

I use this website EVERY SINGLE DAY. I don't like to use my phone's alarm because it gets annoying to the point where I just silence it and go back to sleep. This alarm is the perfect place between nice and annoying so I actually get up. Plus, there are more things like different background and sounds!! A few of them I use daily because it helps me sleep. (I use rain, fan, and washing machine often.) One last thing I like is waking up to a meme or a little something everyday. It's quite nice. Five stars, wish I could give more.

Requires the use of a VPN

Requires the use of a VPN owing to a policy of arbitrarily blocking ISPs without warning or explanation. I used it for years before this. I notice also that reviews flagging this up do not receive a response.

SPANISH INQUISITION

Works like a charm.
Sure didn't want to be late for my zoom meeting with the Spanish Inquisition!

Nobody expects the Spanish Inquisition! But hopefully you weren't late for your meeting with them. Seriously though, Kyle...thanks a whole bunch for taking the time to review us.
