Install Custom Fonts on iOS 13 and iPad OS 13

Before we start anything, let me explain how the custom fonts work on iOS 13 and iPad OS 13. First of all, Custom fonts are a configuration file deployed by the developer to control various aspects of the app. To get this working, you’ll have to allow something called a “Profile.” However, Profiles can also be used to inject malware or steal data from your iOS. This Profile was a problem that came with iOS 12.

Now, with native support for custom fonts on iOS 13 and iPad OS 13, you no longer need to interfere with various settings. All you need to do is, download the font from the Apple Store and install it in on your device just like any other app you would do.

Here in this article, we’ll be showing you how to install any custom font app on your iPhone or iPad without using hacks or Profiles.

Steps to Install Custom Fonts on Apple iOS 13 and iPad OS 13

1. Open App Store and search for “fonts.” You have to find many apps, but I would recommend you to download ‘Font Diner’ App (Download) as it uses the native custom font feature and this app is entirely free.
2. Install the app and open it. You’ll find an “Active Now” button on the top. Tap on it and select “Install.” That’s it. You’ve successfully installed 20+ new fonts on your phone.

   

You can find the list of installed fonts from Settings as well. Just navigate to Setting -> General -> Fonts and tap on the fonts to view their typography design.
