Fonts

Fonts is a free application that displays information about the fonts on your iPhone. This is primarily useful to other developers to see what different fonts will look like in their own applications.

View a list of all of the fonts that are installed on your iPhone and iPod Touch device. For each font, you can see the variations of the font. The font names displayed are the named used by the UIFont class to create the font.

On the font details screen, you have a choice of three views:

  • Sizes displays a sample of the font with a slider to let you view the font in a variety of point sizes.
  • Edit allows you to write your own text in the font and control the font size. The display shows the exact size of the text in pixels. This is useful for sizing text elements on your application.
  • Unicode shows a series of Unicode pages, 256 characters per page. Swipe left and right to move among pages. The hexidecimal values for the page are displayed at the top.
