### 4/5 — Fontinator Feedback

*2024-06-21*

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]

### 1/5 — Unable to install fonts

*2023-10-31*

Keeps saying profile error, but I can install on iFont.

### 3/5 — Close, but Not Quite…

*2023-08-17*

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 doesn’t like about a font file or font family and it will just say “this profile cannot be downloaded”. This is particularly problematic when installing multiple new fonts at a time as you don’t 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.

### 1/5 — Please fix

*2023-06-30*

App was working just fine for a while and I loved it. But now I can’t even download new fonts because of a “profile installation…” error. Please fix this issue i won’t be able to even use Vectornator anymore for my designs

### 1/5 — Fontinator is about to make me uninstall 2 apps

*2023-06-09*

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 can’t 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 that’s why there haven’t been any Fontinator updates in a couple years… 

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 can’t add the fonts I need.  Unless y’all can come up with a better font import path ASAP, I guess I’m about to uninstall both apps to regain that storage space on my iPad.

### 1/5 — Profile not downloading

*2023-05-08*

Used to work great. Now it won’t let me download the profile I need to install fonts. The app loses connection to the server whenever I try to download. NEEDS FIX ASAP.

### 1/5 — Not installing

*2023-04-30*

It has stopped installing and says all my fonts need to be installed. Even the ones that are installed.

### 1/5 — Persian fonts

*2023-03-14*

It has so much bugs. And i can not add persian fonts.
Vectornator is a such of great design application. So pls fix this problem.

### 1/5 — Seems like you can’t add new fonts to Vectornator anymore

*2023-01-23, version 1.0.1*

Can’t add any new fonts because the link to install is still corrupted and it seems like they’ve abandoned the app.

### 3/5 — It worked once for me

*2023-01-18*

It worked once on iPhone and iPad, but now I can’t “install the profile” as it won’t come up in settings. If fixed this app would be perfect! I would love to make Vectornator font logos on iPad please fix 🤓
