Modify the style
For mobile typography, the process to follow is a bit more complex since this depends on the customization layer that there is. The stock Android version does not include the option to change the font, but it is possible to change the font on Xiaomi devices or any other brand, as well as modify the font on Huawei and Honor devices. However, there are still methods that allow you to modify it on all Android phones, even if the options included to change the customization layer were not enough.

In this launcher that we have shown you There are already a number of fonts to choose from, although it is interesting that you know that you can add many others to these that you download from any of the number of applications available or also from a web page. Our recommendation, since it is the simplest, is to access the DaFont website where you will find a large number of font styles that will allow you to customize the device.
When you have downloaded the letter you want then you will have to unzip the file with the administrator and then you must repeat the same steps: Lawnchair Settings> Theme> Fonts. And this time you will have to click on the first option where the 'Add Fonts' option appears and in your files select the OFT TTF extension. Then you can choose the font you want on your mobile to have it totally to your liking.
