Font Combinations 2.0 Preview & Screenshots

June 20, 2011 by Douglas Bonneville

The Font Combinations app 2.0 is on the way for iPhone and iPod Touch with iOS 4.2 and later! It’s a complete rewrite from the ground up with a slew of new features, a whole new UI, and best of all, all-new Retina Display graphics. Some of the new features are:
  • Super swipe with inertia: you can swipe slow, drag slow, or flick fast. It’s up to you
  • Forwards and backwards buttons for header and body
  • Randomize header, randomize body, and randomize both buttons
  • Built in screen capture that saves to your iPhone or iPod Touch gallery ready for instant email
  • Twitter integration that creates a ready-to-tweet message with your font combination
  • Beautiful new custom UI with customized icons
Here are some screenshots. Click to enlarge for Retina Display resolution. Enjoy!

    I suppose it’s not trivial to implement, but any chance of iPad support? Unfortunately, iPhone / iPod Touch apps look terrible on the iPad since all it does is scale up the non-Retina version.

    Hi Michael: We are working on a unique iPad version. It will have the same basic new UI functions, but have much richer graphic set to more closely match the Big Book of Font Combinations. Stay tuned!

    That’s great news, Douglas! I’m looking forward to it.

Lost in UX like I was?

"What do all these terms mean?"

But then a cat showed me the UX way with simple definitions and funny visual examples.

Now, I remember them all!
