TL;DR

  • Samsung Notes does not currently support custom fonts or typefaces, as the app wholly relies on an Android device’s system font setting.
  • The manager for Samsung Notes today explained that third-party fonts are not available in the app due to copyright issues.
  • After a user requested expanded font support for Samsung Notes on the Samsung Community forums, the manager wrote Samsung is “considering” improving the situation.

Samsung Notes is a versatile One UI app that serves as a note-taker, PDF viewer and annotator, and voice recorder all in one. However, the robust notebook is still missing a feature Samsung fans have longed for, which is the ability to use custom fonts in Samsung Notes. The current implementation of fonts in Samsung Notes strictly relies on the device’s font setting. While the Samsung Notes app supports other kinds of text formatting, the only way to change the font in a note is by adjusting the system-wide Android font, and this is hardly a proper solution.

That might be changing in a future Samsung Notes update following one user’s request on the Samsung Community forums (via SamMobile). The poster asked for Samsung Notes to support individual fonts in a single note separate from the Android system fonts, calling it a necessary feature for students and organization in general. The manager for Samsung Notes replied saying that the company is “considering” improving font support in the app.
