Frequently asked questions
Will the alarm ring if the tab is in the background?
Yes, the alarm rings even if the tab is in the background or minimized, as long as the browser stays open. The internal tick uses absolute timestamps rather than counters, so it survives background tab throttling.
Should I set an alarm to go to bed?
Yes, sleep experts recommend it. A bedtime alarm is as important as the wake-up one. Keeping a fixed bedtime improves rest quality more than sleeping many hours on irregular schedules.
How many sleep cycles do I need?
A sleep cycle lasts about 90 minutes. The ideal is 5 cycles (7.5 hours) or 6 (9 hours). If you set the wake-up alarm at 7:00, count backwards in 90-minute blocks: 5:30, 4:00, 2:30, 1:00, 11:30 PM. Going to bed near one of those times helps you wake at the end of a cycle instead of in the middle of deep sleep.
