Appeared with the Apple Watch a few years ago
time, we learned
last weekthat Apple's new favorite font is called San
Francisco. Indeed, it seems that the Cupertino teams have decided not to
not limit the police to the world of the Apple Watch but to benefit from it
also iPhone, iPad and Mac owners.
This is how, instead of Helvetica Neue which we know since iOS 7 and
OS X Yosemite, we could find this new font in the fall. A
specialist in the field thus looked at the advantages of this San font
Francisco and gives them to us in detail:

particularly to lovers of typography, he therefore did not take care to
explain all the nuances. However, it can be noted that the police remain
readable even when the character size is extremely small.
One of the secrets of the readability of this font is the size of the
lowercase letters that are 75% of the size of uppercase letters. It's more
important than most other fonts. Another element to note on
characters like a or e, the spacing between the tail and the rest of the
letter and it is also more important than usual and thus allows
recognize the letter more easily.
Now we just have to wait for WWDC to find out whether or not Apple has
decided to adopt this new font for iOS and OS X.
