Tips to Use Muslim Fonts for Making Mobile Apps

Mobile apps for the Muslim lifestyle have the potentials to draw many users because of their specific functions, from Ramadan fasting to daily prayer. Muslim fonts are often used to create a distinctive “Islamic” look, especially for users who do not read Arabic script. Many of these fonts are actually based on Latin alphabets but with distinct visual elements of Arabic script.

Since Muslim fonts have unique characteristics, you must understand the right way to use them in mobile apps. Here are several tips for designing the best typography for Muslim apps.

  • Use Proper Font Sizes 

Apps are designed to be readable on multiple devices, but most apps are made for mobile devices. You need to apply standard size for heading and body texts. When you use Muslim fonts as heading or the app name, make it slightly bigger than the standard body text.

How big? Standard body text sizes for apps are 16sp (according to Google Material Design guidelines) or 17pt (according to Apple Human Interface guidelines). You can apply a slightly bigger design for Muslim fonts that you use as heading and app name.

  • Apply Multiple Font Types 

Many Muslim fonts are heavily stylized to give them distinctive looks, making them categorized into display fonts. They can be hard to decipher when you apply them in smaller sizes. When designing apps, use at least two to three font types to create distinctions between different sections.

For example, the largest Muslim fonts are used as the app name and main heading. You can use more standard sans serif fonts for the menu names and body texts. These distinctions help the brain to separate sections and digest the content of the app.

  • Be Consistent in the Style

Apps have multiple pages and menu sections, so make sure the design and style are consistent. Your Muslim fonts and standard body text fonts must look the same every time users open a new menu and read the content. Style inconsistency will create a disjointed look and confuse users.

You can create distinguishing effects to emphasize the differences between menu and content. However, the basic style should stay the same. The differences can be something like the graphic colors and icons used, for example.

  • Make the Font Readable 

Muslim fonts come in various styles, and designers have free range to apply them in their projects. However, it would be best to consider readability factors when designing apps. Make sure the elements do not say a different thing when the app users look at the typography. The readability level must not change when app users switch to different devices.

  • Use Dynamic Font Design

Make sure to apply dynamic font designs when making apps. This means the font sizes and typography automatically adjust to different screen sizes, layouts, and reading positions. Users should be able to read and navigate the apps even when they tilt the screens or replace their devices with another.

After understanding the basic principles, you can get creative with the fonts. Pollux of Geminorum offers various Muslim fonts with unique styles and visuals. Download your font pack now and create Muslim apps to help many users.
