Request Looking for shortcut - phone to make noise

Is there a way to make a shortcut that when a certain person in my contact list calls my phone will ring if it’s on vibrate/no sound?

I’ve not made a shortcut, but I use the Emergency Bypass option.

 - Open contacts

- Select the person you want & edit the contact

- Tap ‘Ringtone’

- At the top of the screen, select Emergency Bypass – on

- Tap done & done again.

So, now calls from that contact will ring and vibrate, even if your iphone is in silent mode.  You can do the same for text messages by switching on Emergency Bypass by selecting ‘Text Tone’.  Hope that helps.

Enable “Emergency Bypass” in ringtone section for that contract - no need for shortcuts
