Didn’t work

Title

A full truck of gratitudes

It’s about 6-12 months since I installed your app. I use it to embellish my Obsidian on iPad with new fonts. It wasn’t easy at first, but now the process from downloading to seeing a new font in Obsidian takes about 3 minutes. Thank you for that. It is a really helpful thing, given how hard it is to dance around the whimsy requirements of the OS.

the only app you need

with a size smaller than 1 MB and completely free, this app does exactly what it advertised, shaming the costly and heavy alternatives in the App Store. I tried lots of other apps. This is the one. It’s one of those “will never delete” apps. Thank you devs.

Funciona muy bien

Muy fácil e intuitiva. He podido instalar las fuentes sin ninguna dificultad

Didn’t work for me

I wasn’t able to install any fonts due to a Safari error. I wanted to contact the devs via their app support link on this page but it sent me to a website that doesn’t include this app in their selection. Very odd. Think twice about installing this app.
