My wife and I regularly misplace our phones in the house and we also keep them on mute like 99% of the time.
Are there any apps that allow us to ping the other ones phone audibly despite it being on mute?
One is a oneplus 6t the other a s23 ultra if that makes a difference
EDIT: I found a solution i like; Homeassistant with TTS Notifications. Of couse you can still list some apps and solutions for others to find, but i am happy now!
The homeassist app let’s you do that.
Yeah we have them both installed… Can you point me to where exactly I can ping?
use the notification service for your phone, on Android set the message to TTS, in the data use the below
ttl: 0 priority: high media_stream: alarm_stream tts_text: HELP, Im lost can you hear me?
I’ll try that right away! Thanks!

It throws me errors about extra keys not being provided
Your missing message of TTS, android needs that to know to say the text
Hm it doesn’t get throught my phone being on mute 🤔
No sound coming through
Just run this and my android phone on vibrate just did the announcement
Awesome, that works - Thank you!
Thanks for answering, I didn’t see this.
