How to Set an Hourly Alarm on Your Computer
Setting an hourly reminder on your computer can be very helpful and it is actually very simple. Different operating systems (Mac/Windows) have different methods and the best choice of software and the simplest way of doing this is listed below:
EditSteps
-
1Use Google. You can always set remainders in google by just typing "remind," followed by the name you want to give in the remainder. For example, type in the search bar, "Remind Robert birthday," and then just set the remainder and you are golden.Ad
-
2Download software if you use Windows. If you use Windows, there is a very simple and free software called Personal Reminder.[1]

3Choose between iCal and downloadable software on Mac.
- You can use iCal to set reminders. However, if you're looking to do an alarm every hour, this can be a lot of reminders to set.
- Download a software option. One of the best applications for Macintosh is called Fantastical.[2]
