Is there an app to send an "ALERT" to a phone to help locate it?

I recently misplaced my phone in my home. "Find My" confirmed it was in the house, but it was on "Do Not Disturb" and had slipped into a narrow place. It is not uncommon for my phone to project "ALERT" messages like floods and Amber Alerts even when it is on Do Not Disturb. If one of those ALERTS had occurred while the phone was lost the phone would have been very easy to find.


Is there an app that will allow me to logon to my Apple account and send my phone an alert to help me find it?


Thanks

iPhone 7 Plus, iOS 14
