Custom Font Support

Choose your font freely with Niagara Pro

In contrast to grid-based launchers, text also plays an important role in Niagara Launcher’s design. Therefore it only makes sense to also give you the power to customize text appearance. With the latest update Niagara Pro members can apply any font to your home screen — Yes, even everyone’s favorite, Comic Sans.

Font: Josefin Sans (not Comic Sans to spare your eyes)

How to use custom fonts

Google Fonts

At first, choose & download a front from the Internet. I recommend Google fonts and dafont, both sites offer fonts for free:

Google Fonts

DaFont

Next, go to Niagara Launcher > Launcher Settings > Look > Text > Font > Custom Font. Now choose your downloaded font file (most likely it ends with .ttf or .otf). That’s it!
