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.
The only Fonts app I trust
My perspective from a long career in security at Microsoft and Google: Fontcase is a free, open-source app that is well-regarded by a trusted ecosystem of iOS indie app developers.
Because iOS requires installing a management profile to load custom fonts, Font apps present significant security risks: profiles can include malicious permissions, or it could embed the font itself with an identifier to track all your web browsing.
I suspect that most of the top Font apps, free or paid, have both the incentive and the means to include such malicious content.
Because Fontcase is open-source, it provides an additional barrier to abuse by making a public claim as to its safe functionality. This makes it easier to audit the code for unintentional abuse vectors and to compare actual behavior with stated (open-source) behavior.
Fontcase is the only Fonts app I trust and use. It's also distributed by a company with no current interest in monetizing it. I took a look at some of the lower-star reviews, and I suspect that most of the negative reviews are abusive attempts to squash Fontcase coming from "competitors" (i.e. the top-rated Fonts apps who have a business model dependent on selling you their app or harvesting your data via tracking).

少なくとも
設定→一般→VPNとデバイス管理へとフォントを入れることはできますが、設定→一般→フォント→システムまたはマイフォントにいれることができないため、表示反映はされません。少なくともWordでは、ホームタブでフォント名は表示されますが、入れたフォントが反映表示されることはありません、
(iPad Air5、iOS18.4.1)
それでもフリーサイトのフォントがほとんど入れられるのは高評価です。iPadには表示されなくても、Wordを例にするならフォント指定はできるので、同じデータをpcに持っていけば反映されます。

Funktioniert
nicht. Fonts lassen sich
Trotz Profil nicht auf dem Gerät installieren. App nutzlos!

It doesn’t work now!
I’ve followed the instruction to import fonts and install this Fontcase profile to settings. However, the fonts just don’t appear in notability app no matter how many times I restart iPad…
Best app for custom font downloads
This app is super easy to use, and I used this instead of iFont, which costs money. But this app is free and it was very easy to install my custom fonts and download them to my profile and I could use them for all my note taking apps. Thank you so much!
Well designed app that is apparently abandoned
First off, why doesn’t iOS have built-in font management? Zero stars to Apple for even creating the need for an app like this. Somehow I’ve managed to use an iPhone for 17 years without needing to install fonts, but 🤷♂️. As for this app, it’s well designed, but I can’t get past the point of installing the profile. So, on the current iOS version (I’m on 18.3) this app does nothing, and as other reviews suggest, it appears to be abandoned. What really disappoints me is the only reason I learned it exists is from a *new* app from a developer I trust — IconFactory’s Tapestry app. Tapestry recommends this app as a way to install fonts, but… nope! Very disappointing all around.

Pointless
Spent hours adding fonts but now can’t even open the app without it crashing inmediately. No support email. Pointless.
Lovely
Worked fine on ipados 18, and I was able to get my Jetbrains Mono TTFs installed
Great app
A must have app for ios if you deal with different scripts and languages
Es öffnet sich nicht mehr nach neuste Softwareupdate von iPad
Schade dass die App sich nicht mehr öffnet nachdem ich neueste iOS-Update auf meinem iPad installiert habe!
Brilliant! Ad free and open source.
It's awesome. You can select loads of fonts at once, preview the full character set, pick them from anywhere on your phone, and it's really fast. Much better than the free alternative I was using before.
Bof
Je n’arrive pas à télécharger des polices .😩
I like what it does but the scope is too limited for my purposes
I installed Fontcase with the purpose of editing a photo using a specific font in mind, as the native iOS photo editor has extremely limited options and was insufficient for a meme I was attempting to compose 🧐 Anyhoo, while Fontcase did deliver on adding the font to my system as it promised, it left out that it only applies to a select few system apps, Photos not included.

Clutch!
I was scouring the App Store for a 3rd party app to install a very niche traditional Chinese/zhuyin font on my new iPad Air. Thank goodness Reddit recommended this app: super fast & easy installation, and now I can use the font on Pages! None of the other apps I found worked or were behind a pay wall — this app came in clutch!

Install instructions incorrect
Not really sure if it’s related to iOS version or phone model or what, but I can’t get further than installing the profile. It seems to have installed just fine when I view it in the VPN & Device Management menu, but the ‘Profile Downloaded’ button simply does not exist and there is no ‘Profiles’ menu/button in General either. Huge bummer
