A very basic note-writing app, designed to help facilitate communication between Deaf and hearing people.
As a Deaf person, I often use my phone to type out what I want to say to someone. I noticed that some folks were having a hard time reading the small text of Apple’s Notes app. The Notes app has an option to format text as a title to make it bigger; however, the app resets the text to normal after hitting Return, forcing me to reformat every line I type. And even the title-formatted text wasn’t big enough in some cases: some people still squinted to read it! I couldn't find an existing app that had the exact features and level of usability that I was looking for, so I set out to create Bigger Notes to satisfy my own needs.
Please open an issue here on GitHub to report bugs or request new features. You can also email me at biggernotes@jeff.ejeff.org.

To deploy a version to TestFlight, open a PR from a feature branch targeting the main
branch. Xcode Cloud will automatically build and release to TestFlight. When the PR is ready to merge, use a squash merge. The title of the PR will automatically become the commit title, which in turn will be incorporated into the release notes later.
To deploy the contents of the main
branch to the App Store, draft a new release. Create a new tag following semantic versioning, like v3.2.1
. Use the "Generate release notes" option. The title should be populated with the tag name, and the release description should be a list of all the squashed merges from the PRs. Xcode Cloud will automatically create a build, which can be submitted on App Store Connect (still a manual process).
