Unlike Android, which allows the user to style the default font of the device, Apple has never given this level of personalization to its phones. Now, however, this may be possible, at least if your smartphone has not yet been updated to iOS 16.2.
The novelty, existing only due to a security flaw in the old versions of the system, was created by a GitHub developer and replaces the official mobile font throughout its interface.
According to Zhuowei Zhang, the professional responsible for the tool, the fonts only work on iOS 16.1.2 or later, as the gap he found was corrected in the current version of the system.
At first, four fonts were adopted for the project (DejaVu Sans Condensed, DejaVu Serif, DejaVu Sans Mono and Choco Cooky), but later five other options were also added (Go Regular, Go Mono, Fira Sans, Segoe UI and Comic Sans MS).
If the user wants, the tool also allows him to import custom fonts converted to the format accepted by iOS and there are some links on the page with suggestions of where to find these ported fonts.
In IPA format, the file can be installed by any user not on iOS 16.2. But, if you are in doubt about the version of your device, it is worth checking it in Settings > General > About. If you already have iOS 16.2 installed, unfortunately it will not be possible to go back to the old version of the update.
iOS 16.2 fixed iPhone vulnerabilities
Despite not presenting major changes compared to its predecessor, the iOS 16.2 has arrived with some new featuressuch as the Sleep widget, which can now be added to your smartphone’s lock screen.
Another highlight of the update is Freeform, a collaborative application that resembles a blank slate and allows a group of people to create and edit a project, all at the same time.
In addition to the new features, however, iOS 16.2 was important for correcting some Apple vulnerabilities found in older versions of the system. In all, 35 security flaws were fixed, some of them serious and related to arbitrary smartphone code execution.
For these reasons, if you still don’t have the new version of the device, but you think it would be more sensible to install it right now, go to Settings > General > Software Update. When you find the update, tap Download & Install and wait.
