Default Font for Mail in iOS 16.2

Hi John98754321,

There is not a way to change the default font for composing emails in the native iOS Mail app. You could explore other apps that may offer this functionality in the App Store. Additionally, you can leave feedback to let Apple know you'd like this feature to be available in a future iOS update using the feedback link that we provided previously.

Cheers!

Yes, but what IS the ‘default font’?

And in iOS 16.3, there is no “'<' icon above the keyboard” and quite where would ‘above the keyboard’ be, somewhere in the body of the copy?

Hello John98754321,

You may adjust the iOS email font when composing an email by using the following steps:

1. Begin composing the new email
2. Tap the '<' icon above the keyboard
3. Select the 'Aa' button
4. Choose the font here, which may say 'Default Font'
5. Select the new font

If you find there is something you'd like to see changed or added, you may always opt to leave feedback for Apple on their dedicated feedback page here: Product Feedback - Apple

Cheers.
