Go to settings, find Display, click Screen Zoom and Font, scroll until you see "Font Style."

My bad. I'm on a 9 year old phone. Go to Display, scroll until you see "Font size and style," than click "Font Style," and choose your font. If it still does not work, try contacting the font developer.

Your downloaded font should show up under the font style list. What store did you download the font from?

I'm guessing this is a third-party or custom font download, so...
If youā€™re unable to use a downloaded font on your Android device, there could be a few reasons behind it. Here are some common reasons and their potential fixes:

1. Unsupported font format: Make sure the font file you downloaded is in a format supported by Android, such as .ttf or .otf. If itā€™s in a different format, you may need to convert it using online font conversion tools.
2. Incompatible Android version: Some font customization methods may not be compatible with certain versions of Android. Make sure youā€™re using a method that is compatible with your Android version.
3. Device restrictions: Certain Android devices and models may have restrictions that prevent custom font usage. Check your deviceā€™s specifications or search online to see if custom fonts are supported.
