识字可以,识字体不行👎👎👎

Useful tool

I used this app to make a clock face like one I saw in an old photo. I was impressed and really appreciate the functionality of this app. Thanks!

Just crashes now

That’s the review. Won’t launch in iOS 27

Astonishingly poor

Absolutely incredible how it gets nothing right. I tried it on for quite well used fonts and it did not even come close to getting any right.

Can’t open

Last update destroyed my app on my iPhone 15 Pro.

Two thumbs down👎🏻👎🏻

This app cannot identify any font! Terrible!

И?

Не могу принять соглашение, кнопка не рабочая. Собственно, прочитать я его тоже не могу - просто белый экран и больше ничего

Great App

This app not only found my font but gave me some great similar suggestions that I hadn't found before in my search

問題なく使えました

知りたい欧文書体がすぐにわかりました!

Anche no…

Non ne trova mezzo… carichi fotografie di scritte interessanti e non ne azzecca una!

Random font types

I wanted this app to help with a MS PowerPoint presentation. I needed to find Microsoft font types that I could use in a presentation. The scanned font returned 80 random fonts, none of which were available in Microsoft. So unless there is a way to filter results and find font types that can actually use… this app is useless.

Отстой

За шесть лет ничего не исправили. Приложение не запускается на айфонах 5, 11, 12, 16

Не работает

Приложение не работает совсем

Doesn’t work

Tested on a block of text from a full word doc I know the font (my document).

It gave 100 options and NONE were the actual font I used

Accurate and reliable

I’ve been using this app now for some years, I’m a freelance graphic designer and recently got hired with a marketing company. This app has always been my go-to. I’m not sure what the other reviews are referring to? Maybe they just expect things to be handed to them on a silver platter 😆 graphic design is work and research!! What the font gives you near identical fonts if not the exact one you’re looking for. Definitely recommend it!! Thank you to the developers!!

Does not work

Cannot identity any sort of font at all. Gets them all astronomically wrong

I can’t delete your app

WHY WHY WHY!

Couldn’t identify anything

Gave a bunch of random fonts, couldn’t read the text I put in

Doesn’t work anymore

The app updated a few months ago and now it doesn’t recognize any font I put in there. I have even tried basic fonts that should for sure be recognized.

Waste of time

Never once recognized a font automatically from a picture, never recognized a font after I selected the text. Might work well for plain no background b&w but didn’t have that need to try ever.
