Adding your own fonts in Sketchware

Sketchware allows you to add your own custom fonts. You can get these from sites like 1001freefonts and others. These usually come in .ttf and are fairly small. When you've downloaded your font click here 👇

Click and open the menu on the top right corner of your project screen.

Navigate to where the downloaded font is stored on your device.

Now that the font is in Sketchware, I want to choose which text appears in that font. If I want it to appear in the specified font when the app starts and that is achieved using the setTypeface block. I will put my logic in *onCreate* or *onStart*. If, however, I want that font to appear when a specific condition is met, I can place it on that specific event. For example, *onButtonClick*, *onTextChanged* or in an *IF-ELSE* block. For this tutorial i will place the block *onCreate*

This will display my text in the specified format.

So I had a basic understanding of Java and android programming, but this new app that I had found, used simple drag and drop features and you could actually run the app on your device or send your app to friends in just a few clicks. I was not a professional programmer but using this app I could easily create “proper” mobile apps without cracking my head over code. You can check out my app made using Sketchware; Business Builder- Small Business Management Suite here . Fast forward to a few months later and I had created an app that I felt was ready for the big leagues… Play Store baby!! Note, that I was at a low point f...
