### 5/5 — Simple and Intuitive

*2023-07-08*

Downloaded the app, took no time to open it up, figure out how to use it and install a font I like. idk if i can use it system wide, but that may be an apple thing. I never write reviews. Great stuff :)

### 5/5 — Flawless Victory

*2022-06-14*

Using this app is simply the best way to get Font Families onto your iOS device. Full stop.

No confusing steps (like downloading and then approving Configuration Profiles that will confuse and/or worry casual users in equal measure) are required, and the visual interface is (almost) too clean…

Suggestions:
• From a user standpoint, a (perhaps redundant for some) explanation of what the "Register" command does and how the user can confirm to their satisfaction that a font has indeed been added to the Settings –> General –> Fonts pane and is therefore available within compatible apps.

• Additionally, a way to synchronize Registered fonts across a user's multiple iOS devices (and if possible, multiple users' devices) would be a useful feature if implemented in future.

### 1/5 — Exploiting open source

*2021-09-11*

This app seems a lot like a program that is freely available for Linux, but don’t assume that it’s just the same. This is not some altruistic open source app.

I was really annoyed when I read their privacy agreement. While the app provides you with access to all those great fonts, Hemism LLC gets access to data from your phone, which is described in the vaguest of terms.

In terms of actual app function, it seems to work well. I find it deceptive because the user thinks they are getting one thing (some nice fonts which Hemism just scraped off the web, or more likely the app just downloads directly from the original source), but the developer is taking information from you without really saying what that info is or who’s getting it or what will be done with it. Why should I trust them?

And don’t tell me they got permission.  You know and I know and more importantly Hemism knows that no one reads or understands the license agreement. I’d say that they depend on this fact.

### 1/5 — Hopeful user

*2020-10-13*

I have installed several fonts but there are no directions how to access one for use.  I downloaded to my iPad 14.+ and I would like to use within a picture.  Would appreciate help from the developer.
