Use Find my Font app to take a photo or load a gallery image and identify any free or commercial fonts in seconds! Ideal for graphic designers, web-designers, sign makers and all font lovers who spend hours to search for a font. Find my Font Desktop edition (Mac & Windows) will identify also your local fonts.
There is yet another app to identify fonts from images: WhatTheFont.
The main difference is that WhatTheFont only identifies fonts from MyFonts.com - because they want you to buy the fonts - while Find my Font identifies also free fonts of Dafont.com, Google Web Fonts, etc.
It's the perfect tool e.g. to find the best Google Font alternative to a commercial font, because it allows you to visually search for a font in a specific category: All Fonts, Commercial, Freemium or Google Fonts.
It's a free app available on both iOS & Android.
I'll be glad to read your thoughts and answer any questions you may have.
Enjoy!
PS: More details on the App:
=> You can take a photo or use an existing gallery image
=> Identifies any Latin letter using an online database of 150.000+ fonts
=> More than 60.000 freemium(*) & free fonts are included (like fonts of Dafont and Google Web Fonts)
=> You can choose your preferred matching category: "All fonts", "Freemium", "Commercial", "Google Web Fonts" (ideal to find any Google Fonts that look similar to a commercial font)
=> It shows you both an exact match and a list of similar fonts to choose from
=> Type a custom text to easily preview & compare matching results to your original image
=> Identifies connected (script) or fragmented (stencil) letters
=> You can select the input text directly from any color image (no pre-processing required)
=> You can perform in-app image rotation and fix any perspective distortions for more accurate matching
=> Achieves accurate matching results down to 20 pixels text height!
(*)"freemium" fonts: Sometimes the font publisher/designer offers the opportunity to download a font but that doesn't mean the font is 100% free for any use. It could be "free for personal use only", donation-ware or just a demo you need to purchase before use. It is the user's responsibility to acquire, accept & respect any associated font usage license before using it.
@fivos_vilanakis Great to see this and I have added it to my curations and will share it with my network - wondering what features the in app purchase provides?
@krishnade Thank you for sharing!
The app is free but has a limit of 5 font-id requests per day + 20 requests on first install.
You can use in app purchases to buy some extra credit or totally remove the credit limit:
If you purchase the "Unlimited" product, you have unlimited font-id requests on all devices under your iTunes or Google Play account ;)
My first thought was this would be a shitty clone of WhatTheFont. Very glad to see that's not the case and you have improved quite a bit. Awesome job.
A web app would be much more useful than mobile apps in my opinion. I'd love to collaborate on a web app with you for this! Think of all the graphic designers working daily from their computers!

@philth_ Hi Phil! and thank you for your kind words and your suggestion. If we decide to go for a web app we'll be in touch for sure ;)
We already have a solution for the professional graphic designers working from their computers.
It's "Find my Font Pro": A desktop application which runs on your Mac or Windows computer and identifies all fonts of our online database + the local fonts stored on your computer (either installed or not). Regarding local fonts matching: You can identify text in any Unicode language and the matching speed is about 5 millions fonts per minute.
