Beth, Check out the app, NaviLens which is free. You can request pdf files of tags you print off, then scan with NaviLens and enter or record whatever text you want. The tags come in multiple sizes, full page, 4 on a page, 16 on a page and so on. The full page one is scannable at at least 70 or 80 feet away. What I would do, is print out a full page or at least the 4 on a page, Tape it on a window near the door, and when you are getting close, fire up NaviLens and once it sees the label, it will lead you to it.
If your address is posted on that door, or near it, if you have a pro model of the 12, 13, or 14, the new door detection feature might work as well.

How accessible is the app? What are some good uses for them? Talked me into buying. Lol. Hi, I appreciate the discussion because I think it’s talked me out of buying because there’s probably other ways I can accomplish what I need. I am looking to learn where a door is in a row of townhomes where there is no distinguishing landmarks or clues to know which is which. But I could at least till winter put some thing audible in the house by the door like a small radio or some thing that I could hear. Until I learn, which is which. An AirTag would work for this, but I think there are other better solutions.
