There are other options, such as the Font Diner, but the choice of fonts in these apps is usually limited or you have to pay for them.

It differs from other similar ones in that it is open source, while allowing users to download and install their own fonts on the iPhone and iPad. Without any restrictions.

How to install a custom font on iPad and iPhone

Let’s say we have a custom font that we want to use on our apple gadget. To install it on the system, we need the AnyFont application, which is easy to install from the AppStore. The application is paid. It costs 149 rubles. However, believe me, this is a very small price to pay for much needed functionality.

The AnyFont application window is a file manager for fonts. At the bottom there are two tabs: “Custom Fonts”, which displays the fonts installed in the program by the user himself, and “Available Fonts”, which displays all the fonts installed in the operating system of the gadget. When tapping on the name of the font in the “Available Fonts” tab, full information about the selected font will be displayed. When you tap on the name of the font in the “Custom Fonts” tab, a window pops up with the “Install” button, which means “Install”, as well as four buttons at the top of this window that allow you to share the font, move it to a user-created folder inside the AnyFont application itself, view the style characters in the selected font and display detailed information about it.

At the top of the AnyFont application window there are also four buttons for managing the user’s own fonts. The first opens commands for deleting, moving and exporting fonts. The second allows you to add a font source. The third is for creating a user folder inside the application. This can be useful for sorting fonts. And the fourth displays information about the version of the AnyFont application.

To install a new font on the system, you first need to add it to the AnyFont application. To do this, it is enough either to download it to the device from the Internet using Safari (in iOS 13 and iPadOS 13 this option is available), or to receive it in a letter by e-mail, in a messenger message, or have it uploaded to any cloud. Then, when tapping on the name of the font file, it is enough to select the standard menu of the “Share” system in the form of a square with an up arrow and select our AnyFont application from the list of options offered. You can load TrueType fonts with the ttf extension.

Let’s say I have an exotic Ostrog Ucs font file in iCloud Drive. In the Files system application on the iPad, I go to my iCloud Drive, find the font file and hold my finger on it. A menu pops up, in which I select the “Share” command.

In the context menu of the file, select the command “Share”

Next, the standard menu of the operating system will pop up, but it will not be among the application icons of our AnyFont program presented in the top row of icons. In order to get to it, you need to tap the “” button with three dots. An additional list of programs will open, from which you need to select “Copy to AnyFont”.

AnyFont is available in an additional list of compatible apps

If you have to add a lot of different fonts, you can put the “Copy to AnyFont” command in the list of application buttons offered by the system in the first window of the “Share” menu. To do this, in the upper right corner of the window with an extended list of compatible programs, in which we found AnyFont, tap “Edit” and then tap the green plus sign to the left of the inscription “Copy to AnyFont”. And when the command is added to the upper list of “Favorites”, you can drag it to the desired place in this list by grasping the three horizontal lines to the right of the command name with your finger.

After choosing the “Copy to AnyFont” command, the required application will open, and the font added from the Files application will appear in the “Custom Fonts” tab. It only remains to establish it. To do this, tap on the name of the font. A window pops up with a green “Install” button.

It’s simple. just press the green button

Allow loading configuration profile

The application will display information that the profile has been loaded, but it must be installed in the settings. Then AnyFont offers to go to the settings to complete the installation of the profile. Go to “Settings” → “General” → “Profiles”.

In the window that opens, the top item will be the loaded profile. We just need it. And below the already installed configuration profiles will be displayed. We tap on the name of the loaded profile and in the window that opens in the upper right corner we tap the blue inscription “Install”.

Next, the system will require you to enter the gadget unlock password. We enter it and in the upper right corner we tap the blue inscription “Next”, and on the next screen. “Install”. And we confirm our intention in the pop-up dialog box. On the last screen, tap “Done”.

We confirm our desire to install a font profile

As a result, our font is added to the device configuration profiles. AnyFont sees it installed in the system. a check mark is displayed on the right opposite the font name. And the font itself is available in supported applications. Do not believe me. look at the screenshot as I type the text with a new font in Pages.

For example, you can get the cherished Cambria and Calibri, so familiar to Windows users, by installing Microsoft Office on Apple gadgets. Starting with iOS 13 and iPadOS 13, Apple has allowed users to install custom fonts for use in supported apps.

There are many different applications in the App Store that contain certain fonts and allow you to install them on the system. One of such programs, Font Diner, has already been reviewed in detail on our website. However, it should be noted that, as a rule, in these applications, the user is offered a certain set of fonts for specific money. There are options for buying a certain font in the application separately, or using it on the basis of a paid subscription, but there are also just paid applications with fonts in the AppStore. For example, in the same Font Diner for each of the offered font packages, there is an annual subscription in the amount of 399 rubles / year.
