The story behind iFonts
I needed the list of available fonts in iOS to send to my designer. I searched the web and found that there are lots of iOS font lists out there (iosfonts.com, blog posts, Stack Overflow), but who knows if they're up-to-date or were ever right in the first place? At some point, every one of them will be forgotten, neglected, and become obsolete. I wanted to be absolutely certain that the list I sent to my designer was correct for the latest version of iOS. iFonts guarantees that - it uses public APIs to determine the available fonts, so you know you're getting the current list when you run it on your device. Most importantly, it has a handy email feature to send the list to a designer or developer. No need to bookmark a web page. No need to create a list on your computer that'll quickly become obsolete. Just run iFonts and you instantly have the list that's guaranteed to be up-to-date for your version of iOS. It's that simple.
