About this app
Escape the same five fonts. Everyone defaults to Inter, Poppins, or Montserrat, not because they're the best, but because finding anything better is a chore. 72pt fixes that. It's a hand-curated library of 700+ free typefaces (every one cleared for commercial use), dug out of the GitHub and GitLab repos where the good underrated ones hide. Browse full-screen, type your own words into any font, sweep through every weight, and save the good ones, so your work stops looking like everyone else's. Discover by feel. Tap through fonts one at a time. Type your project name or headline and see it instantly. Scrub size and spacing with your finger, sweep through weights, and double-tap to save. Free, and yours to use. 94% under the SIL Open Font License, the rest MIT, Apache, and other commercial-friendly licenses. Nothing is restricted to personal use. Use them in client work, in apps and pr…
App details
What you can learn from 72pt: Fonts for Designers
Every shipping app on the App Store has gone through the same decisions you're working through right now: which screenshot goes first, what caption sits over it, which device frame to show, what color the background should be. The 15 screenshots above are 72pt: Fonts for Designers's answers to those questions — they're public, they're real, and they made it through Apple's review.
What the numbers say: 72pt: Fonts for Designers runs a mixed light-and-dark set where the background shifts from screenshot to screenshot (first shot #1C9CE4) — each image has to stand on its own, so the captions carry more of the story. The accent colour we picked up, #3C6C7C, is the one to reuse for badges, arrows and highlighted words if you borrow this look. Hit Use this style to open the editor with these exact colours and drop your own screenshot in.
Notice the first screenshot in particular. It's the one users see in search results and on the product page, and it's where most apps spend their best caption and tightest design. Look at the proportion of background to phone, where the text sits, what one thing the image is trying to communicate.
