A few years ago, Apple created and began to use a new font called San Francisco, a font that it uses today in all operating systems: iOS, macOS, tvOS and watchOS. San Francisco is a very simple font, easy to read and that we can use in any other operating system or application.
If we are developers, and we want to use the same font that Apple offers us in all its operating systems, to make models or for any other purpose, Apple allows us to download it directly from the page that it makes available to developers. Here we show you how to download San Francisco font.
To download the San Francisco font, in order to use it in applications, documents, compositions or for any other purpose, we must go through the developer center through this link. You don't have to be a developer to download it. Once we are on that web page, click on Download San Francisco Fonts.
The font is downloaded in DMG format, so later we have to run it to install it. At that time, we must accept Apple's license terms In order to use it, terms that limit the use of creating applications for Apple operating systems:
The (current) usage limitations are quite clear and strict; These fonts are intended for developers to use to make UI mockups for iOS, macOS, watchOS, and tvOS, and that's it. Mockups are often created by many developers and designers when working on software and applications for the Apple ecosystem, and that's what these fonts are meant for, nothing more. Do not ignore the restrictions in the license agreement.
Then a window with two folders will appear: SF Pro and SF Compact, where all the fonts are found in their different formats. Next, we must click on each of the fonts that we want to install on our computer.
