## Description

Designers, developers, and typographic nerds - rejoice!



FontSpy isn’t just another “what font” tool - It’s the most intuitive, stylish, and powerful font inspector built for bringing some simplicity and style into your workflows:

<ul><li>Fast &amp; Seamless - No clunky panels or reloads, just hover and inspect</li><li>Perfect for Design Reviews - Verify styles in real-time while browsing</li><li>Awesome Download Option - Save hours hunting fonts online</li><li>Stylish Design - A polished interface that looks as good as the fonts you’re spying on</li></ul>
FontSpy transforms how you explore typography on the web: stop guessing, stop digging through messy developer tools - to identify a font just hover, spy, and download.

Other inspectors only tell you what font you’re looking at. FontSpy goes further:

<ul><li>No DevTools needed, just hover your cursor over any text to reveal font details</li><li>With one click, download the font directly from its source (when available).</li><li>If the font isn’t downloadable (e.g., paid or protected), FontSpy will smartly provide a link to the official source (coming soon)</li></ul>
Current features:

<ul><li>Instant Font Details - Hover to reveal font family, size, weight, line height, and color.</li><li>Smart Tooltip Locking - Pause over text and the tooltip locks in place for full inspection.</li><li>Color Swatch + HEX Code - Quickly identify exact text color, complete with swatch preview.</li></ul>
FontSpy is part of the DesignSpy Collection - check out ColorSpy if you’re looking for a quick and simple in-browser eyedropper tool.
