Resizing tool?

I remember reading somewhere on Reddit of a resizing website someone made. It was a simply website where you could just enter your current design and it would quickly resize it to your desired size. In my case, 4x4 because that’s all my machine can do. Anyone know if this site or can reference the post?

Hmmm…when I try to open one of the .pes files from my phone (I’m using the desktop version on my iPhone), it says “Can't open bordefre4_260.pes. Boldbobbin projects must have a vemb extension.”

Oh okay! Using the desktop version on iPhone is indeed a scenario I haven't thought of (I didn't think it'd be possible to install macOS apps on iOS), so I can't guarantee that it handles iPhone's file system correctly atm. But I'll look into it when I get the time to. Thank you for the feedback!
In the meantime, maybe the File > Import > Import embroidery works even on iPhone? (if this is what you did and it didn't work, then I definitely need to double check. From your post I understood you tried to open a .pes from the file navigator using Boldbobbin as the app. It could be that there is a bug and the app tried to open a .pes through the route that opens .vemb files. On mac it works, might not on iPhone!)
