How to Use Different Fonts on Instagram

Do you want to add some custom Instagram fonts? If so, look no further.

In this article, we’re going to show you how to use custom fonts on Instagram Stories, posts, and on your Bio to make your content stand out.

How to Use Different Fonts on Instagram

In recent times, developers at Instagram have tried to spice things up by increasing the number of fonts available for your Instagram Stories from one to nine. Although this has come as a relief for users initially stuck with only Sans Serif, most people feel their options are still limited. The situation is even worse because Instagram doesn’t have in-built font options for your captions, comments, or bio.

Luckily, third-party developers have made the most of this opportunity and created tens of fonts. It’s almost impossible to exhaust the font options available online at the moment. All you need to do is find a suitable third-party text generator website where you can draft your texts and later copy and paste them into Instagram.

How to Customize Instagram Fonts

Font generators present one of the quickest ways to add some funky fonts to your Instagram content. In a nutshell, here’s what you need to do:

1. Find your preferred text generator website.
   
2. Enter your text and then choose custom fonts until you find what you like.
   
3. Copy your text and paste it into your Instagram.
   

The following text generators are the most popular, and they’re also all free.

1. Instagram Fonts
2. Cool Fonts
3. Cool Fonts App
4. Sprezz
5. Lingo Jam

How to Use Different Fonts on Instagram Stories

When it comes to Instagram Stories, you have 9 different inbuilt fonts to choose from. Here’s how to use them:

1. Create a new Story. This could mean uploading an image currently saved on your phone or sharing someone else’s post.
   
2. Type down the text you’d like to appear alongside your Story.
   
3. Tap on the “Aa” icon on the top right corner to launch the text box.
   
4. Scroll through each of the available font options. To do so, toggle the text box just above the keyboard.
   

And that’s it! Before hitting the post button, you can resize the text or change its position on the screen as you see fit.

Alternatively, you can opt for a readymade Instagram Stories template app. These apps come with premade text that you can edit to fit your story. A good example would be Storyluxe.
