How to install a system font programmatically on a Samsung Android device?

1k Views Asked by At

As I understand it, it is not possible to set a custom font as a system font in standard Android devices that have not been rooted. However, I hear that it is possible to do on devices from certain manufacturers, like Samsung. So I would like to know how to install a bundled font from my app as a system font if the user has a Samsung phone. Or even if I can't install it directly, how do I make the font available for the user to go into settings to choose it? This is apparently possible since such functionality is provided by iFont and other apps.

Notes

I am not asking how to use use a custom font in my own app.

I am not asking how to set a custom system font generally in Android.

I am asking specifically how to do it on a Samsung device.
