I’m enjoying the various new fonts and grateful for the choice! However it feels like most of the fonts are quite large even when the Tiny size is selected. I’m pretty much sticking with Amatic because it’s more the size I prefer.

What build do you have installed? Also, which device? The most recent build has done a great job of addressing that, at least to my eye.

I do figure because I apparently have a bias for larger fonts, we probably are underserving the small font people. (You don’t seem alone in feeling tiny isn’t tiny enough) So our next plan was adding a notch below medium / pushing the other smaller sizes down a tad probably.

Current build, iPhone 14Pro. For my taste, the Amatic Tiny is tiny. The Chicago Tiny is more medium. I just tend towards a smaller tidy text.

Sorry, I should have specified your Testflight version. 8011 is the current build. I believe Phil has addressed your concern as well.

I will also note I would like to eventually do a pass where we kind of equalize font sizes for every font to deal with some fonts just being bigger or smaller than others. (This would probably be helpful for widgets and WYSIWYG previewing of each font in the fonts list.) But this kind of pass might be kind of involved, so we’re holding off for now.

Thanks for looking into that!

Sounds like adjustment is in the works on this but I just wanted to add my vote for it. Seems odd for the current “Tiny” size to match the size of text in original Clear/Messages/elsewhere using Dynamic Type, and only be able to go up from there.

I’m loving the huge option
