Even if you don't install the letter fonts on your Android, the FontBoard app also helps you to change the font through the keyboard. In short, FontBoard is a keyboard that contains 50+ free fonts that you can use to write on WhatsApp, Instagram, Facebook, etc.

Fonts

Another famous alternative to iFont is HiFont, a free application that, like the previous one, allows you to modify the font of Android mobiles, offering a huge catalog of fonts that you can download, the vast majority completely free of charge.

Contrary to iFont, HiFont fonts must be downloaded and installed via Google Play as stand-alone applications. Doing so will cause the app itself to check to see if your device supports changing the font, and if so, a big “Apply” button will appear to choose the font you just downloaded.

This app, although it is just as functional as IFont, should be an alternative to turn to only in case the previous option does not work, since this app It has certain important drawbacks. For example, it is not possible to import your own styles, and the app is also plagued with advertising that sometimes becomes too intrusive.
