User Reviews

Fontcase is valued as an easy, free, open-source way to install and use custom fonts on iPadOS across apps, with a fast workflow and cross-app utility. However, its reliability is hampered by OS-version compatibility issues, brittle profile-based installation, and limited font format support. Users also report difficulties removing fonts and inconsistent app-wide usage, with some signs of long-term maintenance gaps. Overall, it’s a helpful tool for many, but OS compatibility and maintenance are major constraints.

Pros

Easy to use with a fast, straightforward workflow (e.g., from download to seeing a font in apps like Obsidian within minutes).
Free and open-source, with privacy benefits (claims of no data collection and community trust).
Enables font installation on iPadOS by working around iOS font restrictions via configuration profiles, allowing fonts to be used across multiple apps (Pages, Obsidian, etc.).

Cons

Reliability and compatibility issues on newer iOS versions (notably iOS 16.3, 17.x, and even 18.x in some comments) and signs the app may be abandoned (no updates for over a year).
Profile-based installation is brittle and can produce errors (Profile Error, missing/disabled profile options, disappearing profiles).
Inability to remove fonts and frequent installation failures leave fonts stuck or partially installed.
Limited font format support and app-wide applicability (e.g., not all apps see fonts; not supporting .ttc files; some workflows restricted to certain apps).

It’s about 6-12 months since I installed your app. I use it to embellish my Obsidian on iPad with new fonts. It wasn’t easy at first, but now the process from downloading to seeing a new font in Obsidian takes about 3 minutes. Thank you for that. It is a really helpful thing, given how hard it is to dance around the whimsy requirements of the OS.
