I have a question about widgets in android. I've created a simple digital clock with appWidgetProvider using TextClock. My question is if there's an option to use a custom font for TextClock. I used android: fontfamily, but i don't want to use default fonts.

  • If TextClock is the subclass of TextView then you can use it. Please check and update the post – Mohammed Rampurawala Sep 09 '17 at 10:51

  • The answer I found when looking at this previously was using Bitmap and drawing text with custom typeface into it. In my case, I have decided to just forget about custom font on a widget, as the fonts were not essential for me at the time. However, it is something you could look at. https://stackoverflow.com/a/4411060/1615525 – sigute Sep 09 '17 at 12:30

Your issue is not strictly with TextClock. You have no way to configure a RemoteViews to use a custom Typeface for anything, let alone a TextClock.
