How to change the “Find My” sound?

I would like to be able to change the “ Find My“ sound on each of my Apple Devicesm so that each device would have its own different sound, and so that all the sound would be more audible to me (I’m 61 years old, and can’t always clearly hear the high pitches of the current sound, especially if we lost devices in another room.) one of the other reasons I would like the ability to change and customize thr “Find My” sound is that I would like to change it to something meaningful to me. At present, the “Find My” sound on every Apple device is an annoyingly meaningless “dit-dit-dah-dah-dah-dit-dah”: like Morse code, except that it doesn’t happen to mean anything in Morse code, and this annoys me. I would very much like the ability to have my iPhone’s “Find My” sound be the Morse code for “PHONE” (or else just “PH” or “P”) — have my iPad tablet’s “Find My” sound be the Morse for “TAB” ot maybe just “T”— have my Mac laptpp’s “Find My” sound be the Morse word “MAC” — have my AirPods be Morse “L” (left AirPod) and More “R” (right AirPod) while the case could be Morse “C” — and my Apple Pencil could be Morse “WR” (for “WRITE”: I’m NOT suggesting “AP” because I might misremember that as being for “Air Pod”). Other folks, who are t into Morse, should likewise be able to choose their own preferred sounds,, just as one chooses ringtones and other sound effects. (Note that Apple’s competitor Samsung ALREADY lets users change their “Find My” sounds!)

What do you think?
