Fontinator Feedback
by far, the easiest way to install additional fonts to iOS that I've come across.
- duplicate detection would be nice
- break profiles up into smaller installations [multiple fonts, if you aren't wanting to install fonts separately, tend to crash the app or flat out refuse to upload]

Unable to install fonts
Keeps saying profile error, but I can install on iFont.
Close, but Not QuiteâŚ
Overall, the concept for this app is simple and excellent - install your custom fonts (.ttf, etc.) quickly and easily and use them across your iPad OS apps like Office 365 and others.
I would easily give this app 5 stars if there were fewer bugs and unexplained errors. For instance, iOS has no problem with Japanese fonts, but this app glitches out and shows glyphs instead of the fonts for some reason. Also, more commonly, there will be something that the app doesnât like about a font file or font family and it will just say âthis profile cannot be downloadedâ. This is particularly problematic when installing multiple new fonts at a time as you donât know which font is the problem and have to go back through and install them one at a time to figure out which is the problem.
Again, great concept and big props to the dev team for all their efforts on this. Just need a little more polish/intuitive UI in order to become a top-tier option.

Please fix
App was working just fine for a while and I loved it. But now I canât even download new fonts because of a âprofile installationâŚâ error. Please fix this issue i wonât be able to even use Vectornator anymore for my designs
Fontinator is about to make me uninstall 2 apps
I wanted to use Vectornator since another vector app I like is no longer being supported. The problem is that I need to be able to import fonts into the app for my design projects, and Fontinator is an awful answer to that issue.
I tried importing just one font for a project that I had previously imported into Vectornator. Fontinator created the profile for the font, and the iPad believes that the profile has been installed successfully. However, Vectornator still canât see the imported font, and Fontinator still says that the font needs to be installed. I have double- and triple-checked my steps. This whole process is counterintuitive anyway, as other design apps on iPadOS allow us to import fonts from within the app, rather than having us use a separate app that then makes us install profiles in the main Settings. Maybe thatâs why there havenât been any Fontinator updates in a couple yearsâŚ
Whatever the reason, this poor excuse for a font installation path is a dealbreaker. I want to like Vectornator, but the app is useless to me if I canât add the fonts I need. Unless yâall can come up with a better font import path ASAP, I guess Iâm about to uninstall both apps to regain that storage space on my iPad.
