Older eyes? You need this

Well-designed tool which makes it easy to tune websites for legibility (and easy to turn it off for the sites which refuse to play nicely).

How to upload custom fonts

So far the app works perfectly, it changes fonts, but is it possible to install custom fonts?

Thank you for the great feedback

Suscripción

Cambiaron a un modelo de suscripción, no entiendo el por qué. No hay forma de comprar la versión de por vida, sin mencionar que el precio de la suscripción anual es excesivo para lo que hace.

Works only intermittently and not on all fonts on the page

I installed this extension to increase the size and change the font of letters in my gmail inbox in Safari. It only worked intermittently, and sometimes, for some entries in the inbox and not others. Turning the extension on and off in Safari sometimes worked intermittently, as did closing Safari and reopening it, but I could not get the font changes to remain stable.

Makes most websites comfortable to read. Permits fine control over settings. Worth every penny

Thank you for the feedback. In the latest release, we added OpenDyslexic Alta as a custom free font.

This font app is great for changing fonts in your browser and apps. You have a fall-back font to use that can be selected in case the font or site doesn’t accept the chosen font. There Many options to chose from to set parameters for your font! So, far it is working as described. The developer is helpful with any problems.

Thanks a ton! Glad the app’s working well and the fallback font feature is useful. Appreciate the support—and feel free to reach out to me@sufiyanyasa.com if you have any suggestions!

Amazing app

I absolutely love this app. It’s simple to set offers plenty of options to make reading articles in safari so much more pleasant. This is a set and forget kind of app because it just works and works well. Of course you can jump into settings anytime and change font, font weight, color etc etc. more than worth the small price.

Websites wie es einem gefällt

Mit dieser App kann ich relativ einfach für Webseiten meine bevorzugten Schriftarten einstellen. Ja, es ist ein Nischenprodukt, aber wem es gefällt. Die App ist gut gelöst, und der Entwickler antwortet auch schnell bei Fragen.

Uses low vision font, sometimes decreases contrast

Mainly we love this app. I was extremely impressed to have Atkinson Hyperlegible available. This font was created by the braille institute specifically for low vision. I was also able to change the colors for someone with a rare color blindness. However we have noticed that it sometimes decreases contrast of elements in webpages, or can cause other issues, likely due to many websites not being able to handle larger font size. Thankfully it looks easy to turn it off for specific websites and just use VoiceOver as needed.

Thank you for the feedback. Since Atkinson Hyperlegible is accessible font, I have made it free for all.

Make Safari Look and Feel Fun!

Ever think “that’s the font”? Well, with FontFlex, you can bring custom fonts to life with every website you visit! From font choices between System Fonts and Google Fonts, to customizations such as font sizes, font thickness, and even font colors, FontFlex has it all. Turn all websites into the one font that just feels right, or switch it up and use Profiles to make different websites follow different font styles and customizations that bring a website’s look and feel to life. There’s also an option to disable font changes entirely on any given website, in case certain websites should be excluded from the FontFun. Best of all, FontFlex collects no personal data, and all changes made to websites are done locally, so FontFlex can be trusted to just work without worrying about what data it might collect next. Last, but certainly not least, the developer is very responsive to emails, and more than willing to help with any issues that arise, or any features suggestions that are on your mind, making FontFlex the ultimate flex to use with Safari!

Transform Your Safari Reading Experience

How are we supposed to trust an extension we’ve never heard of before?

This extension will be able to read and alter webpages and see your browsing history on this website. This could include sensitive information, including passwords, phone numbers, and credit cards.

Thank you for the feedback. Yes I definitely agree. In fact, it is the main reason that limits me to install other extensions. ( which is partly the reason I developed my own). One suggestion is to not execute safari extension on all websites and even limit them to only one day. This may be a hassle, unfortunately security always comes at the price of inconvenience. Alternatively, if you are a developer - you could always extract the javascript to audit. ( perhaps another app idea to audit other safari extensions) For any feedback, feel free to update here or email me@sufiyanyasa.com.
