Cell phone incoming call vibration enhancer

I sometimes get very important work phone calls on my cell in the middle the night. The ringing phone wakes up everyone in the house, I tried putting my phone on vibrate mode and put phone on my mattress up against the pillow, but the vibration is not strong enough to wake me,
I googled and found a remote bluetooth vibration device for Apple phones, but can't find one for android.
Does anyone have a recommendation for a solution?
TIA

I think remote vibrators is more of an OT question
TO get the obvious out of the way, have you tried turning your volume up when in vibrate mode? I would do that and put the phone in my pillow and it was plenty.

Can you wear a smart watch to sleep? Get one that connects and notifies you of a call. Choose settings that prevent it from going into a 'do not disturb' mode at night.
I have a Garmin Fenix that works very well with Android but you can try a cheaper one of Amazon first to see it this is a solid solution for you.

You can find them on any adult toy website.

I see some on Amazon that are $30-40, are these worth it? Or they are so cheap as to be unreliable?

Try putting it on vibrate in a pie tin full of nickels.

A smartwatch if you can sleep with a watch on. I have a Fitbit, It will definitely wake me up.

You probably want to look for something designed to alert hearing impaired people of a call when they are sleeping. They make shakers that will go under a mattress or pillow that can adjust. Some of them are Bluetooth connectable I believe.

Turn the ringer down so it only wakes you up and not everyone in the house.
