UIDefaultFont

Replace the system font in the whole app easily

No more wasted time and effort, searching and overriding the font of every displayed string in your app. At runtime, you can change the system font and it will be replaced everywhere it's used in the application.

This library is simply one extension to UIFont, adding three properties:

• normalFontName
• boldFontName
• italicFontName

Usage

Simply:

UIFont.normalFontName = "Courier"
UIFont.boldFontName = "Noteworthy-Bold"
UIFont.italicFontName = "HelveticaNeue-ThinItalic"

If you want to be notify (to update already displayed labels for example), you can observe these three notifications:

• normalFontChanged
• boldFontChanged
• italicFontChanged

NotificationCenter.default.addObserver(self, selector: #selector(updateNormalFont), name: .normalFontChanged, object: nil)

Requirements

• Xcode 9.0
• Swift 4

Swift 3 support is available on the branch swift-3 on this repository.

Contribution and Maintenance

System font available on iOS is surely subject to possible change, and when it does, this library should still work properly. If you would like to help maintain or improve this library please feel free to do so.
