Need app recommendation for on call notifications

[dorlow]

So, I'm on a team where every 3 werks, I'm on call for a week. For years I've used an app called klaxon. It worked great. I could mute my phone so getting normal notifications didn't wake me. But if I received an on call page text, my phone would go bazerk.

I just got a new phone (Samsung galaxy note 10+ running android 10.) Now the klaxon app isn't in the app store anymore. To get around this, I backed up the apk file on my old phone and installed it on the new phone. When launching the app, it alerts me it's not compatible with my phone. And getting pages, the app catches them but does not alert me.

I've kind of found a work around. I am using the do not disturb option on the phone and allowing all calls and texts after hours. But still if I still somehow sleep through the call and don't hear the one beeps for the text, I'll miss the page. With the klaxon app, when I got an on call text, it would repeatedly make a noise until i acknowledged it.

Anyone have any idea how to get this new phone to work similar?

Yeah I don't think that's what I'm looking for. But thanks anyway.

I use the Notificon app to decide which other apps' notifications I want to hear or NOT hear and also to assign specific sounds to specific apps so that if the device is out of sight or reach, I know which app is sending a notification. But I couldn't find Notificon on Playstore any longer. I had to transfer it from an old phone. Perhaps the Notification Organizer or Notification Blocker would help.
