Find free alternatives to paid Fonts
It is very easy to use the tool, and you do not have to create any account to use it. Head over to the Alternatype websiteand enter a font name. If your desired font is in their database, you can find that in instant search result. Choose the font from the given list. If the font is not listed in the instant search result, too bad!
The result page looks like this-
From here, you can get the download link, or check a specimen.
It is as simple as that. The only problem with this tool is it has a minimal database. You may not find alternatives to some of latest fonts. However, if your desired font is very modern, there is a very high chance to get the result right away.
Tools to find similar Fonts
When it comes to finding a free alternative to paid fonts, Alternatype seems to be the only player in this business. However, if you want to find similar fonts – paid or free – you can use these following tools.
1] Identifont
Identifont is a great web app that allows people find similar fonts to paid commercial fonts. Talking about the database, the Identifont database is much bigger than Alternatype. You can find minimum thirty similar font suggestions based on your every query. On the other hand, using this tool is pretty easy as well.
Visit the Identifont website, enter your font name, and press the Enter button. You should find some similar font suggestions on your left-hand side. This list should contain paid as well as free font suggestions.
2] FontSquirrel Matcherator
This is another awesome tool to find the exact or similar font based on your image text. In other words, you need to upload an image containing your desired font. The FontSquirrel Matcherator will do some background check and let you find the font that you want to download or buy.
Go to the FontSquirrel website, upload your image, select the text, click on Matcherate it button. You will get all the similar font suggestions right away.

How to maximize the reliability of Face ID on the iPhone X: 4 tips
So here’s a few tips that I’ve either discovered myself, or seen others suggest.
Re-register your face
The first thing I’d suggest anyone try if they are experiencing issues with Face ID reliability is to re-register your face. From reports and comments, this seems to solve many issues.
Had loads of problems with Face ID, read this article, remembered you could reset it. Works an absolute treat now, just how it’s supposed to. Thanks!
If you sometimes wear glasses, sometimes not, there are anecdotal reports that it’s best to scan your face while wearing glasses.
Some have also suggested doing the initial scans in the dark. As it’s infrared, I can’t see how light or dark would make any difference, but since it scans perfectly in the dark there’s certainly no harm in trying it.
Switch off Requires Attention if that’s no risk for you
One of the security features Face ID offers by default is that you need to be looking at the phone. This is to prevent someone using your face to unlock your phone while you’re asleep or distracted.
However, it does increase the chances of failure, as the iPhone needs to be able to clearly see your eyes – which can sometimes be an issue for those who wear glasses or sunglasses.
For many of us, there is no real prospect of anyone unlocking our phone while we’re sleeping, so toggling off this feature may be worthwhile. You can do this in Settings > Face ID & Passcode > Require Attention for Face ID.
Move your phone while unlocking
As Face ID uses 3D data, moving your phone during the scan is likely to help. After an acquaintance noted he was finding it less reliable than me, we compared what we were doing. He held the phone still, while I typically swiped up while still lifting the phone, so that may be one reason it’s so reliable for me.
Experiment with distance
Several people have commented that distance seems to matter. It can fail if the phone is held too far away, but it seems more likely to fail if you hold it too close.
The biggest [variable] I’ve seen mentioned is the distance from your face. Which solved about 95% of the failed attempts I have as it was too close.
I’m 6’2 and Face ID doesn’t work at arms length.
