There many people with dyslexia and other stuff like that and using some other font like comic sans can make a huge difference on them, yet there is no way to easily (I think) change the font on our devices. We should be able to just download and load the font. What do you think?

I've definitely imported a custom font on my Note 20 in the past. Whether that feature is still alive in the most recent One UI versions I'm not sure I suppose, but it was possible, just incredibly backwards and convoluted. If I recall, I had to download a font file and then put it into a very specific folder for the UI to recognize it

You can also use an app that does it but, again, it shouldn't be that tedious and it should have been available to all android devices
