The Tile app (you can use without buying anything) can turn on the ringer and set full volume. My partner and I use it to find each other's phones. There are probably other apps that do that, too.
Both iOS and android have this built in. There’s no need for a 3rd party app to do it.

Tut tut, achually... Android doesn't have it built in, it's bundled with the Google package. Witch is included in virtually all android phones so I know what you mean.
I use /e/os, so to me the Google package is a third party system and I use open source applications to access parts of the Google infrastructure without having to have a Google account.
The downside is that not all Google features are available. Like find my phone functions when there's no associated account. But I can text my phone with a secret codeword and it'll send back it's GPS coordinates so that's something I suppose.
