How to change fonts on Android - Needs Root

In almost all cases, the stock/default font on your Android device suffices. It looks pleasant and is usually of the right size for comfort. But, there will always be Android users who’d prefer some other typeface, who’d want to stand out from the crowd. In this guide, learn how to change fonts on Android. 

NOTE: This requires root

Prequisite:

1. Your font font file (.ttf)
2. Font Installer apk
3. Needs Root

To install a TTF font file that you’ve saved to your device:

1. Copy to your device the TTF font file that you want to use, preferably into the /sdcard directory.
2. Launch Font Installer.
3. Before tampering with your system fonts, backup your existing default fonts first. Tap on the Menu (three dots) button and select Backup/Restore. Select Backup. If Superuser or SuperSU asks for permission, grant it.
4. Tap on the Local tab to open the directory explorer. Locate your TTF file.
5. Tap on the TTF file that you want to use. From the popup dialog, tap Install to set it as the default system font. (If you want to preview the font first, tap on Preview.)
6. If Superuser or SuperSU asks for permission, grant it.
7. Font Installer will prompt you to reboot your device. Tap on Yes.
