In this tutorial we will show you how to install fonts on iOS 13. You will also learn where to download the new fonts and how to remove fonts from your iPhone or iPad.

Apple has introduced a new Font Management feature in iOS 13 that makes it easier for users to install and manage third-party fonts on their iPhone and iPad. Once installed the new iOS 13 fonts can be used in various parts of iOS as well as in third-party apps that support it.

iOS 13 Fonts have limitations

While you can use the new iOS 13 fonts in apps like Mail, Pages, Numbers etc they do not work with all apps. Right now popular apps like Microsoft Office apps and Google Docs lack support for iOS 13’s font management feature however we hope the support will be added soon.

It is also important to know the limitations of iOS 13’s font feature. Contrary to user demand Apple does not allow users to apply these third-party fonts as custom font for apps like Settings, Notes, Messages, home screen or lockscreen. You cannot use the installed fonts as your default system font for iOS as well.

You cannot install custom fonts downloaded from the web

Another major limitation of the iOS 13 font management feature is that you can only install fonts from font apps downloaded from the App Store. Currently there’s no way for users to download fonts from a website and install them through the Files app. We hope this changes in the near future as well and users are able to download fonts from non-App Store sources just like they can on their Mac.

Despite the options and support being limited for iOS 13 fonts feature we expect the feature to become more powerful in the future, especially when more font apps become available on the App Store. Support from third-party creative apps such as Photoshop will also make the feature more useful.
