[Apple Inc.](/source/Apple_Inc.) uses a large variety of [typefaces](/source/Typeface) in its [marketing](/source/Marketing), [operating systems](/source/Operating_system), and [industrial design](/source/Industrial_design) with each product cycle. These change throughout the years with Apple's change of style in [their products](/source/Apple_Inc.#Products). This is evident in the design and marketing of the company. The current logo is an apple with a bite out of it, which was first utilized in 1999.

## Marketing

For at least 18 years, Apple's corporate typeface was a custom variant of the [ITC](/source/International_Typeface_Corporation) [Garamond](/source/Garamond) typeface called [Apple Garamond](/source/Apple_Garamond). It was used alongside the Apple [logo](/source/Logo) for product names on computers, in many ads and printed materials, and on the company's website. Starting in 2002, Apple gradually shifted towards using [Myriad](/source/Myriad_(typeface)) as its corporate font. Starting with the [Apple Watch](/source/Apple_Watch) in 2015, Apple began using [San Francisco](/source/San_Francisco_(sans-serif_typeface)) as its corporate font.

### Hand-drawn logo

Prior to adopting the bitten Apple as its logo, Apple used a complex logo featuring [Isaac Newton](/source/Isaac_Newton) sitting below an [apple](/source/Apple) tree. The words *APPLE COMPUTER CO.* were drawn on a ribbon banner ornamenting the picture frame. The frame itself held a quotation from [Wordsworth](/source/William_Wordsworth): "Newton....A Mind Forever Voyaging Through Strange Seas of Thought...Alone.", taken from Wordsworth's autobiographical poem *[The Prelude](/source/The_Prelude)*. The logo was hand drawn and thus did not use an established font. However, the type is similar to [Caslon](/source/Caslon).

### Motter Tektura

Before the introduction of the first Macintosh, Apple used a typeface called Motter Tektura for their company logo and product labels,[1] which was originally designed in Austria by Othmar Motter of Vorarlberger Graphik in 1975 and distributed by [Letraset](/source/Letraset) (and also famously used by [Reebok](/source/Reebok)).[2] At the time, the typeface was considered new and modern. The exact font used by Apple is slightly modified from the standard Motter Tektura: the *s* is more conventionally shaped, as opposed to the descending "hook" design of the normal typeface, and (with the exception of the Disk II 5.25 drive) the dot over the *i* is removed.

According to the logo designer, [Rob Janoff](/source/Rob_Janoff), the typeface was selected for its playful qualities and techno look, which were in line with Apple's mission statement of making high technology accessible to anyone. Janoff designed the logo in 1977 while working with [Palo Alto](/source/Palo_Alto,_California) [marketer](/source/Marketer) [Regis McKenna](/source/Regis_McKenna).[3] The Apple logo's bite mark was originally designed to fit snugly with the Motter Tektura *a* (as in the adjacent red banner).

In the early 1980s, the company logo was simplified by removing "*computer*.". Motter Tektura is most notably used for the [Apple II](/source/Apple_II) logo. The typeface has sometimes been mislabeled as Cupertino, a similar bitmap font likely created to mimic Motter Tektura.

### Apple Garamond

Starting with the introduction of the [first Macintosh](/source/Macintosh_128K) in 1984, Apple adopted a new corporate font called Apple Garamond. It was a variation of the classic [Garamond](/source/Garamond) typeface, both narrower and having a taller [x-height](/source/X-height). Specifically, ITC Garamond (created by Tony Stan in 1977)[4] was condensed to 80% of its normal width. [Bitstream](/source/Bitstream_Inc.) condensed the font, subtly adjusted the stroke widths, and performed the [hinting](/source/Font_hinting) required to create the font, which was delivered to Apple as the Postscript font "apgaram".

In cases where the Apple logo was accompanied by text, it was always set in Apple Garamond. Aside from the company name, most of Apple's advertising and marketing slogans, such as "[Think different](/source/Think_different)", used the font as well.

The typeface was virtually synonymous with Apple for almost two decades and formed a large part of the company's [brand recognition](/source/Brand_recognition). It was used not only in conjunction with the logo, but also in manuals and ads and to label products with model names.

Apple has not released the true Apple Garamond font. ITC briefly sold ITC Garamond Narrow—Apple Garamond without the custom hinting—as part of its Apple Font Pack in the 1990s. A version of the font was also included under a different name in some versions of Mac OS X prior to 10.3 as it was used by the Setup Assistant installation program.

### Gill Sans

In the marketing of the [Newton](/source/Apple_Newton)/Notepad/MessagePad [PDA](/source/Personal_digital_assistant) (starting in 1992), Apple used [Gill Sans](/source/Gill_Sans) instead of the regular [Apple Garamond](/source/Apple_Garamond). Gill Sans Regular was used in the logo, for the model name on the computer, on the keyboard and in advertising materials, though it was not used as a screen font (except as part of the Newton logo itself).

### Myriad

In 2002, Apple gradually started using a variant of the Adobe [Myriad](/source/Myriad_(typeface)) font family in its marketing and packaging. As new revisions of its products were released, the text changed from the serif Apple Garamond to the sans-serif Myriad Apple. The family's bolds were used for headlines, and other weights accordingly.

The Myriad font family was designed by [Robert Slimbach](/source/Robert_Slimbach) and [Carol Twombly](/source/Carol_Twombly) for [Adobe](/source/Adobe_Systems) in the early 1990s.[5] Myriad Apple, a modification produced by Galápagos Design Group, incorporates minor spacing and weight differences from the standard varieties, and includes Apple-specific characters, such as the company logo. In 2006, Myriad Apple was superseded by Myriad Set, which contains extra ligatures and other minor changes.

Around 2012, lighter fonts became prevalent in Apple's marketing, with headlines in Myriad Pro Light. Occasionally, an even lighter variant of Myriad was used for specialized marketing materials and press releases.

### San Francisco

In 2015, with the release of the [Apple Watch](/source/Apple_Watch), Apple began the usage of [San Francisco](/source/San_Francisco_(sans-serif_typeface)) in Apple Watch marketing materials, as well as in the [Apple Music](/source/Apple_Music) wordmark. In September 2016, the company began using it as the typeface of wordmarks such as "[iPhone](/source/IPhone)", "[AirPods](/source/AirPods)", and "[MacBook Pro](/source/MacBook_Pro)", on the devices themselves, as well as keynote slides and product packaging. This change was also reflected in some headlines on product marketing web pages.[6] Subsequently, on January 24, 2017, Apple began updating its website to use the San Francisco font,[7] and as a result it became the company's universal typeface for all its products.

## System fonts

Apple has used a variety of system fonts for the [user interfaces](/source/User_interface) of its products.

### Early fonts

Apple's earliest computers, along with other personal computers of the period, had extremely limited graphical capabilities and could originally display only uppercase [ASCII](/source/ASCII) using a set bitmap font. The [IIc](/source/Apple_IIc) and Enhanced [Apple IIe](/source/Apple_IIe) expanded on this, supporting 40 or 80 columns of text and an extended character set called [MouseText](/source/MouseText). It was used to simulate simple graphical user interfaces, similar to the use of [ANSI](/source/ANSI) X3.64.

The first Apple computer with a purely bitmapped display, the [Lisa](/source/Apple_Lisa), shipped in 1983. It used a system font with distinctive V and W letterforms.

### Chicago and Charcoal

When the [Macintosh](/source/Macintosh) was introduced in 1984, it used a [bitmap font](/source/Bitmap_font) designed by [Susan Kare](/source/Susan_Kare) called [Chicago](/source/Chicago_(typeface)).[8] In [Mac OS 8](/source/Mac_OS_8), introduced in 1997, the system font of Mac OS was changed to [Charcoal](/source/Charcoal_(typeface)). Charcoal was designed by David Berlow of [Font Bureau](/source/Font_Bureau), to be easier to read than Chicago, while retaining similar metrics for backward compatibility with existing application software.

When released in 2001, Apple's [iPod](/source/IPod) music player reused the Macintosh font Chicago as the system font. Later versions of the iPod drew from the larger character repertoire of the [TrueType](/source/TrueType) [Chicago](/source/Chicago_(typeface)), adding a number of characters not present in the bitmap Chicago, such as [Greek](/source/Greek_alphabet) and [Cyrillic](/source/Cyrillic_script). Even though the screen supported grayscale, the characters were not [anti-aliased](/source/Spatial_anti-aliasing).[citation needed]

### Geneva

For smaller user interface elements, such as the names of files displayed with icons in the Finder, Apple used the [Geneva](/source/Geneva_(typeface)) typeface, a redesigned version of Helvetica.

### Shaston

Introduced in 1986, the [Apple IIGS](/source/Apple_IIGS), had very tall pixels in the 640 × 200 pixels mode usually used for productivity applications, with an aspect ratio of 5:12 in a 4:3 image (alternately, 5:6 with 320 × 200 pixels), thus requiring a stout, 8-point bitmap font called Shaston 8 as the system font (for menus, window titles, etc.).[9] Shaston was described in Apple IIGS technote #41 as "a modified [Helvetica](/source/Helvetica)", but the similarities are not striking. The fonts of the original Macintosh were also available for the GS.[9]

### Espy Sans

In 1991, Apple's Human Interface Group contracted with LetterPerfect Fonts' Garrett Boge and Damon Clark, to design a family of bitmap screen fonts to replace Chicago and Geneva, although Chicago was eventually replaced with Charcoal instead. The family consisted of Sans & Serif, Regular and Bold in discrete bitmap sizes of 8, 9, 10, 12 & 14 pt. The Sans, proving most useful for screen readability, was also used for the [Newton](/source/Newton_(platform)) OS GUI. The Newton used the font Apple Casual to display text entered using the [Rosetta](/source/Rosetta_(Newton)) handwriting recognition engine in the Newton. The same font found its way into the Rosetta-derived writing recognition system in Mac OS X—[Inkwell](/source/Inkwell_(Macintosh)). The [TrueType](/source/TrueType) font can be made available to any application by copying the font file, which is embedded in a system component, to any [font folder](#Mac_OS_X). (See [List of macOS fonts](/source/List_of_macOS_fonts) for more information.) The Newton logo featured the [Gill Sans](/source/Gill_Sans) typeface, which was also used for the Newton keyboard.

[Espy Sans](/source/Espy_Sans) was later used as the font for Apple's [eWorld](/source/EWorld) online service in 1994. (eWorld also used the larger bold condensed [bitmap font](/source/Bitmap_font) eWorld Tight for headlines. The metrics of eWorld Tight were based on [Helvetica Ultra Compressed](/source/Helvetica).) The [iPod mini](/source/IPod_mini), released in 2004, also used Espy Sans.

### Lucida Grande

Since its introduction in 2000 up through [OS X Mavericks](/source/OS_X_Mavericks), [Lucida Grande](/source/Lucida_Grande) was the system font used in Mac OS X user interface elements, such as menus, dialog boxes, and other widgets. It was superseded by Helvetica Neue.

### Podium Sans

Starting in 2004, the iPod photo, 5th-generation [iPod](/source/IPod), and 1st- through 2nd-generation [iPod nano](/source/IPod_nano) feature a bitmap font known as [Podium Sans](/source/Podium_Sans), displacing the use of [Chicago](/source/Chicago_(font)) as the iPod system font. Although originally promoted as Myriad, Podium Sans is missing Myriad's trademark features, such as the splayed "M" and distinctive "y".

### Helvetica

Since the introduction of the 1st-generation iPhone in 2007, Apple has used [Helvetica](/source/Helvetica) in its software design. iOS for the iPhone, iPod touch, iPad, and Apple TV employs the font, alongside its use on iPods beginning with the 6th-generation iPod classic and 3rd-generation iPod nano.

In conjunction with the iPhone 4 in 2010, Apple began using Helvetica Neue on devices with Retina display, while keeping use of Helvetica on non-Retina devices.

Around 2012, Apple started using Helvetica in [macOS](/source/MacOS) (then named OS X) application software. [iTunes](/source/ITunes), [iMovie](/source/IMovie), [iPhoto](/source/IPhoto), [GarageBand](/source/GarageBand), and Apple's professional applications started to feature heavy use of Helvetica, while the majority of the OS X (now named macOS) environment retained the comparatively more legible Lucida Grande typeface, which was designed specifically for on-screen use.

After the introduction of iOS 7 in June 2013, Apple began using an extra-thin weight of Helvetica Neue for the user interface of iOS 7, arousing numerous complaints about the less legible typography. For the final release of the operating system, Apple changed the system's font to a slightly thicker weight of Helvetica Neue, although some have complained that readability is still compromised compared to the font weight used in former versions of iOS. Older iOS devices continue to use Helvetica or Helvetica Neue in regular font weights that display with higher contrast on low-resolution displays.

With the introduction of [OS X 10.10 "Yosemite"](/source/OS_X_Yosemite) in June 2014, Apple started using Helvetica Neue as the system font on the Mac. This brought all of Apple's user interfaces in line, using Helvetica Neue throughout.

### San Francisco

[San Francisco](/source/San_Francisco_(sans-serif_typeface)) is currently used for user interface across all of Apple's product line, including [watchOS](/source/WatchOS), [macOS](/source/MacOS), [iOS](/source/IOS), [iPadOS](/source/IPadOS), [tvOS](/source/TvOS) and [visionOS](/source/VisionOS). The three main variants are SF Pro for macOS, iOS, iPadOS, tvOS and visionOS; SF Compact for watchOS; and SF Mono for the Terminal, Console, and Xcode applications. It was first introduced alongside the [Apple Watch](/source/Apple_Watch),[10] where it was used for enhanced legibility and taller [x-heights](/source/X-height) for easy reading on a small display. The design references a number of different other typefaces, notably [FF DIN](/source/FF_DIN) (used in the UI of the Camera app in [iOS 7](/source/IOS_7) and [iOS 8](/source/IOS_8)), [Helvetica](/source/Helvetica) (used in the UI in iOS 6 and below), Helvetica Neue (used in the UI of [iOS 7](/source/IOS_7) and [iOS 8](/source/IOS_8) as well as [OS X Yosemite](/source/OS_X_Yosemite), with some devices even with [iOS 4](/source/IOS_4) through [iOS 6](/source/IOS_6)), [Roboto](/source/Roboto) ([Google](/source/Google)'s new UI typeface), and [Univers](/source/Univers) (used on Apple's early keyboard designs).[citation needed]

It was widely speculated that San Francisco was going to be the long-awaited font that Apple had reportedly been developing for independent use in their products, and the font's name was leaked in November 2014 when the [WatchKit](/source/WatchKit) SDK was released to developers. On June 8, 2015, at the [WWDC](/source/WWDC) 2015 conference, San Francisco replaced Helvetica Neue as the system font for both macOS and iOS operating systems.[11] The version used, known as "SF UI", was modified to make it wider than its Apple Watch counterpart, more akin to the previously used Helvetica Neue. The original version has since been renamed "SF Compact".

### New York

In 2019, Apple released [New York](/source/New_York_(2019_typeface)), a serif counterpart to San Francisco.

## Keyboards

[Apple's keyboards](/source/Apple_Keyboard) were long labeled with [Univers](/source/Univers) 48 (Condensed Light Oblique), a design choice by Apple's industrial design partner, [Frog Design](/source/Frog_Design). This began in 1984 with the [Apple IIc](/source/Apple_IIc), which had tilted front-panel buttons to match the inclination of the lettering.

Univers was eventually replaced on Apple's keyboards by [VAG Rounded](/source/VAG_Rounded), which was used on all [iBook](/source/IBook) models, [PowerBooks](/source/PowerBook) introduced after 2003, and [MacBooks](/source/MacBook), [MacBook Pros](/source/MacBook_Pro), [MacBook Airs](/source/MacBook_Air), and Apple Keyboards from August 2007 until early 2015. The font was developed by [Sedley Place](/source/Sedley_Place) Ltd. for German car manufacturer [Volkswagen](/source/Volkswagen) and was used in much of their marketing materials.[12]

On March 9, 2015, Apple introduced a new generation of [MacBook](/source/MacBook)[13] that utilizes the [Apple](/source/Apple_Inc.) designed [San Francisco](/source/San_Francisco_(2014_typeface)) typeface.
