[ZphmAvmKT]

Many thanks for explaining it so clearly, especially the part on looping on the available font names to retrieve the specific custom font name we may need.

[BradCaldwellAuburn]

lifesaver! I needed to lowercase 'provided' and 'application' and also add .otf after the font!

[MadhavAlapati-pg]

This man seems like he'd be a great uncle lol. Thanks for the help Chris.

[Tal.Talmon]

we can see the font name in the font book in font validation. also important is to remove the fonts in the copy bundle resources.

[distantstate]

Thank you so much. Also to the other commenters for finding the .plist file..

Why is selecting the custom font so hard though? 😅

[dugrut]

thanks for this info, I had no idea how to import fonts. now I've implemented it in an app already.

Hi there, I'm very confused about wether I should add the font to the assets file, or just outside the assets. What is the difference and when should I use one over the other? Thanks

[eliasferreira]

A best way to find the exactly font name is, right click on font file and choose get info option, youre gonna find the font name.

[xingzhexin]

I am so mad. After importing the fonts to the project and info plist, I still have to CHECK A BOX FOR THE FONT? plz. This is so mega counter intuitive. It should be checked by default.

On macOS, there's no UIFont class. There is a NSFont class but it doesn't seem to have the same functions such as .familyNames and .fontNames(forFamilyName:)

Hey Chris. I need help to change uiscreen when click on Button to get me on another screen. Can you make a video about that?

[ChuckBurgess]

There is no info.plist in xcode 15.4. Is this tutorial out of date?

[swiftuiforkids]

Hi - just a quick question; is it possible, and if so, how do you use variables from other structures? And amazing job with these videos.

[jesseyates]

How do I make a video suggestion? Keep Up The Great Work 🎉🎉

[geildesignt]

whre can i find the info.plist? On Xcode 16.1 is it not visible on my projects. so where canI edit this file?

[talaathassan]

How do you run the loop to find the font names?

[sharshuwuu]

thank you
From a friendly fresh MongolianDev >.<

[martingreler]

It is ridiculous having to go through all of these steps just to add a font!
