About FontView

🔤 Your Font Library, One Click Away

FontView is a lightweight macOS menu bar utility that puts your entire font library one click away. Tap the menu bar icon and instantly browse every font family installed on your Mac, with each one rendered live in its own typeface — so you can see exactly what a font looks like before you use it.

Type your own preview text to see how a headline, brand name, or phrase looks across every font — FontView remembers your custom preview between sessions. A built-in search field filters fonts as you type, and families with multiple styles can be expanded to compare every variant — Bold, Italic, Light, and more — side by side.

When you find the right font, just click it to copy its exact name to the clipboard, ready to paste into your design tool or code. FontView runs quietly as a menu bar-only app — no Dock icon, no windows to manage — with a resizable dropdown panel you can adjust to fit your workflow.
