<p>9to5Mac reported yesterday (http://9to5mac.com/2015/05/20/apple-plans-to-refresh-ios-9-os-x-10-11-using-new-apple-watch-font/) that Apple may switch out the system font used in OS X and iOS from Helvetica Neue to San Francisco, the font it developed in-house (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/San_Francisco_(2014_typeface)) for the Apple Watch. And if you listen very carefully, that faint background noise you can just discern on the edge of your hearing is half the Apple community bellowing denunciations that this is a stupid idea, and half yelling that OS X 10.11 and iOS 9 (when the switch is rumored to happen) can’t come soon enough.</p><p class="jumpTag"><a href="/article/2925091/do-you-need-to-care-if-apple-changes-its-system-font-spoiler-nah.html#jump">To read this article in full or to leave a comment, please click here[/url]</p></section></article>
