Added 5 custom fonts from Google Fonts: - Quicksand: Rounded, modern, friendly - Comfortaa: Geometric, rounded, elegant - Poppins: Clean, geometric sans-serif - Space Mono: Stylish fixed-width, tech feel - Josefin Sans: Elegant, vintage-modern These fonts provide more distinctive options beyond the standard system fonts, allowing users to personalize their home screen.
Extended font selection to also apply to: - Clock display - Date display - Screen time indicator This creates a consistent visual experience across the entire home screen when users select a custom font.

I have no plans to add any new features for now. You can create a PR in any of the popular Olauncher forks or create a new fork with additional features yourself. |
