What's New in Make It Big

15

October 25, 2026

Find your messages more easily: • Search your recent messages to quickly find something you want to show again. • See how many messages are in Recents, or match your search. We’ve also made a few improvements and fixes: • Added a glass background and an easier-to-see clear button to the message field on iOS 26 and later. The button now highlights when you tap it. • Refined Settings with clearer icons and an animation when swapping your text and background colours. • Fixed an issue where the button to close Settings could be hard to see with certain colour and light or dark mode combinations. • If your chosen font is no longer available, Make It Big now uses the default font instead of closing unexpectedly. • Fixed an issue with changing the app icon on iPhone and iPad. • The option to email the developer now only appears when Mail is set up on your device. Missed our last update? We added support for Duo devices, more widget sizes, and new ways to open Make It Big from Control Center or show a message using Siri and Shortcuts. You can also share all your recent messages at once.

BEST APP EVER

10/10 app, makes everyone laugh

Good but wish there was a feature

I wish there was an app setting to show text in horizontal mode without having to unlock screen rotation. Gets buggy sometimes doing so.

Deaf guy on the plane

A deaf guy on the plane in the middle seat had this app and used it to communicate with me (window) to let me know to tap him to use the restroom. I wound up asking him what this app is and we had a great conversation through it. He is fluent in English, Spanish, and ASL and had a really interesting story. We talked about life and about our walks with Jesus. I feel very blessed that this app opened the door to all of that! I know he enjoyed it too. Thank you, Make it Big! God bless you!
