Description

What can iFont do?
iFont lets you install new fonts for use in apps which support creating content using custom fonts, such as Pages, Keynote or Numbers.

What can't iFont do?
iFont can't change the system font; work with the keyboard; or force apps to let you customise the font. iFont also can't make Comic Sans look good.

***
“Without iFont, writing my new book, ‘Ten Seconds To Consider’, would be an impossible task, given that I'm designing as I write. For my Pages documents to be consistent between macOS and iOS now is a game changer. Thank you for iFont!” — Daniel Klein, former Apple employee
***

iFont includes a wide range of features which let you install, compare, and view typefaces, including individual glyphs and technical details. These include:

CUSTOM FONTS
Install your own fonts (.ttf, .ttc, .otf formats supported, as well as these formats compressed in a .zip) for use in other apps. Simply download a font in a web browser, open in iFont and follow the simple instructions to install it on your device. You can also export a copy of the font, or send the profile to a friend to let them install it, too. iFont can also open archives containing multiple fonts.

FONT DOWNLOADS
iFont lets you download and install a range of fonts from the Google Fonts library, Dafont and more (including custom sources) within the app. It couldn’t be easier to find a suitable typeface for your next leaflet, poster or financial report.

***
After discovering iFont a couple of years ago it has slotted happily into my professional workflow on the iPad Pro. It has a number of standout features which set it apart from the competition, and has been a great help in my client project work.

There’s also an appreciation of type heritage and design, with biographical information and rich technical detail on hand. Choosing the right type is made easier with the Notepad and Compare features. The ability to install multiple fonts at once is essential, saving time and allowing better management of your font library. Imported fonts are viewed as families allowing you to easily compare different weights and make the right choices. There’s also easy access to online type resources such as Google Fonts, which makes finding and installing them a breeze. Great if you’re in a hurry, or have no access to your own font library. — Martin Cleave, creative professional

COMPARE
Compare many different typefaces to see which will suit your intended use. Arial or Helvetica? Zapfino, Snell Roundhand or Savoye LET? Georgia, Iowan Old Style or Times New Roman? With Compare, you can be the judge!

NOTEPAD
The Notepad you find under each font lets you test it out and type a message, and then export it as an image to send in apps such as Messages. Add some character to your texts by using a font which stands out from the crowd!

WATERFALL
See how a font looks at very small or very large point sizes easily using the Waterfall view. This lets you judge which size would be suitable for your use.

ZOOM
Zoom into a font up to 500%, allowing you to see the minute details in each character.

TECHNICAL DETAILS
See information about each font, from the designer and trademark information to the spacing of the ascents and descents.

“Missing fonts on iOS is an issue of the past, thanks to apps like iFont… I hope you saw how easy it is to install fonts on iPhone or iPad and I suggest you give iFont a try.” — Michael Kummer, blogger

NOTE: iFont does not currently support .suit or .dfont files.

iFont is also fully optimised for iPad with a beautiful split view experience and a range of keyboard shortcuts.

Ok, I was wrong, it works.

The import and the download of the fonts work but I cannot change the font of my iPad in, settings -> general -> fonts, as it does not appear, even after I have accepted the font in device management. It’s such a shame for a overall for a well received app.

Edit: Thank you for your quick response and clarifying my misunderstanding of the description of iFont. And yes it does work on apps that support custom fonts. Thank you again for clarifying my mistake.

Developer Response ,

Hello, thank you for trying iFont. Unfortunately, changing the system font is not something iFont supports - and isn’t technically possible on iOS and iPadOS.

iFont works for adding new fonts to use in apps that support custom fonts (e.g., Word and Pages). As you’ll see fr9m our App Store page, we’re upfront about this in description of iFont.

Excellent App.

On my old review, I mentioned how my font could not export properly. The developer has got back to me on that in less than 12 hours. After an email or two he explained what the issue was, plans to fix the issue ect. The customer service is astonishing and the only thing that needs cleaning up is the UI.
The app works well, it does its job, it has a thew cool features.

Star Rating: 2/5

Title: Custom fonts not exporting properly.

So, I import a .ttf font into the app. The font is working, everything is fine. However when I export it as a profile the font becomes invalid despite it working in the app. The app described it as “A last ditch resort for the OS” and the font was just the usual one. The UI is a bit crowded aswell. If i get a response and the issue if fixed then it will get 4 stars (5 if the UI improves.) Thank you for reading :)

Developer Response ,

We're sorry to hear this – could you email us at hello@codingcorner.co.uk, attaching the font in question, so we can get to the bottom of what's going wrong?

Also, any pointers as to what parts of the UI are crowded would be appreciated as well.

Does what it says on the tin

It’s annoying that you need an app to install fonts on the iPad & iPhone, and the process is slightly fiddly, but this app does a good job of making it possible. It has clear instructions and generously allows you to add 10 custom fonts in the free version. The fonts I added became available in Keynote etc. immediately.

Highly recommended if you want custom fonts iOS/iPad OS.

Developer Response ,

Thanks for your kind words!
