Found the perfect font, but can’t use it in your iPhone or iPad documents?
FondFont lets you install fonts you own on iPhone and iPad for apps that support the iOS font library.
Preview every size, inspect every glyph, compare families, then install one font or a whole batch.
Profiles are generated on your device; your font files are never uploaded, and no account or subscription is required.
Get FondFont and put your type library to work.
Bring the type you already own into presentations, documents, design handoffs, school projects, and client work—without guessing how it will look after installation.
IMPORT FROM WHERE YOU WORK
• Open TTF, OTF, TTC, and ZIP files
• Import from Files, iCloud Drive, AirDrop, Mail, Safari, or any app with a share sheet
• Browse trusted open-font sources including Google Fonts, Font Squirrel, and Noto CJK
CHOOSE WITH CONFIDENCE
• Preview sample text and a full waterfall of sizes
• Inspect glyph coverage before a missing character surprises you
• Compare families side by side
• Review family, style, PostScript name, designer, license, and source links
INSTALL WITHOUT THE BUSYWORK
• Install one font or select several families at once
• See which imported fonts are already installed
• Follow a clear handoff from FondFont to Settings
• Generate the required configuration profile locally on your device
FondFont is made for people who care about typography looking right in Pages, Keynote, Word, PowerPoint, and every other app that supports installed custom fonts.
IMPORTANT
FondFont cannot change the iOS system font, keyboard font, or Home Screen font, and it cannot force another app to support custom fonts. Installed fonts appear only in apps that use the iOS font library. iOS requires you to allow the profile download and finish installation in Settings. Because FondFont creates the profile locally on your device, iOS may identify it as unsigned.
FondFont makes actual font installation on iPad actually possible. For that, it gets 4 stars. The usual possibilities for font installation are confined to the Apple walled garden. With FondFont, you *can* install your own fonts. This said, the process is quite a kludge. You must be patient with larger fonts (+1mb), as the process requires FondFont to send a font to the OS boxed up as a configuration file, then go through the labourous iPad/iOS password process. This is generally good, as it ensures some security for these configs. But it may need several tries to get the font accepted, as iOS doesn’t leave much time for the package to wait for your ok. Have the “VPN & Device” section of “General” in Settings open as you install fonts. Just try a few times. If the font is good, you can get it done, even for very large fonts.

Works well IF you can figure out how

This app needs some instructions! Fortunately found a site that showed me how to do this...1) airdrop a .ttf or .otf file onto my iPAD, 2) select “FondFont” to open it with, and it adds it to the FondFont, library.3) select each font you want and hit “install”, it will launch some dialogue windows that you have to allow and then close.4) Go to Settings, General, Profiles, select the font, then install and follow dialogue windows.
Works as advertised

App works great. Install process Apple built is complex. This app could use some documentation. You have to open fonts in the app to copy them, then select the font or family of fonts you want added to iOS, then have the app install them as a Configuration Profile. It will use Safari to do this and you need your passcode. To use the installed fonts you have to restart your phone or the app you want to use the font in. Then it shows up. To uninstall, remove the Config Profile in Settings.

The app works very well, despite the reviews, you just have to figure out how. You also have to supply your own fonts.My one issue is that there is no support for Touch/Face ID so every time you install a font you have to enter your password. I just got a new phone and none of the fonts I previously installed were restored. So I guess an option for iCloud/iTunes backup would be nice.
Updated the App Store preview videos to show the font library, previews, comparison, and installation guide more clearly.
