Hi tessramona,


Thank you for using the Apple Support Communities! While there is not a way of retrieving the alert after dismissing it on your device, you can ensure your alerts are enabled by following the steps below:


About emergency and government alerts on iPhone


Turn Government Alerts on or off
By default, Government Alerts are turned on for your device.2 When you receive a government alert, you hear a special sound that's similar to an alarm. If you want to turn these alerts on or off, follow these steps:
1. Go to Settings > Notifications.
2. Scroll to the bottom of the screen.
3. Under Government Alerts, turn the type of alert on or off.


To look for a specific Amber Alert, you can also check the following link:

Hope this helps!

Have a great day.
