feat(mobile): customize fonts, reply emphasis, and message sizes - #35298
Mobile Appearance settings have no font choice or independent sizes for replies and the composer.
Change
Add device-local interface, reply, composer, and Markdown-code font choices, independent reply/composer sizes, per-font reply emphasis weights, and reset. iOS uses its installed-font picker and restores selected families after restart; Android offers built-in sans, serif, and monospace. Missing fonts fall back to defaults. Diffs and terminal typography keep their existing settings.
Rebased the original implementation onto current main, preserving main's moved composer, native controls, heading faces, and the earlier font-resolution, refresh-identity, and Android line-height fixes. Original commit authors are retained.
Scope
Replacement for #21987, which was closed for conflicts with a request to open a fresh PR from current main: #21987 (comment)
This preserves that feature's scope. The prior discussion about role names, user-message coverage, emphasis, and settings prominence remains for maintainer review; this replacement does not establish approval of that direction.
Verification
vp run check:changed --concurrency 2: format, lint, both Knip phases, mobile/scripts typechecks, 112 tests across five files, and 22 React Compiler checks passed.
vp test run apps/mobile/src/lib/mobileFonts.test.ts apps/mobile/src/lib/appearancePreferences.test.ts apps/mobile/src/lib/filePreview.test.ts --maxWorkers 2: 101 tests passed, including font sanitization, role inheritance, missing-font fallback, real emphasis-face selection, and unchanged-refresh identity.
swiftc -typecheck for T3InstalledFonts.swift against the iOS simulator SDK, targeted SwiftLint on the three changed Swift files, and git diff --check passed.
The CI-only iOS composer suite failure was reproduced locally: its new appearance-provider import reached an unmocked Expo device module. The test now isolates the appearance hook; all four existing revision/race cases pass. The implementation is rebased onto 4fd40e1a16e3; current head is 27d19a53579d.
Fresh iOS 27.1 simulator proof selected Avenir through the native picker, selected its available Medium emphasis, and verified unavailable Semibold/Bold choices are disabled. These captures were made at 0987a002b63f; the nine implementation patches are unchanged by the final rebase, the first follow-up isolated the composer test fixture. The latest follow-up suppresses confirmed-missing native font requests until explicit picker reselection and fixes same-family emphasis in the preview. Those changes were not captured on device after the device session’s input failures. Independent-size/reset, full chat/file-preview flows, and restart/foreground behavior were not re-exercised in this pass. Android runtime verification is unavailable because the device hosts have no Android SDK. Fresh Codex review covered the original implementation; both follow-ups passed local validation. The final rebase preserved all eleven patches unchanged (git range-diff); changed-file checks passed again. Two new missing-font/coalescing regressions failed before the request fix and pass now; cancellation preserves suppression, explicit reselection enables retry, and positive results are refreshed so later removals still fall back.
Session capture at 0987a002: feature defaults (not a main baseline)
Session capture at 0987a002: Avenir with Medium emphasis
Historical evidence from #21987, retained for context only and not proof of this rebased head: the original report exercised the iOS picker, Avenir/Medium selection and restart persistence, and reported installed custom families on a physical iPhone. The later Linux refresh explicitly could not verify native interaction.

Macroscope's review found this PR requires human approval — Adds mobile font, emphasis and message-size customization with device-local preferences and unavailable-font fallbacks. The new oxlint suppression in AppearancePreferencesProvider.tsx requires human review under the configured approval requirements.

Walkthrough
The mobile app adds configurable fonts for interface, replies, composer, and code, with reply emphasis and independent reply and composer sizing preferences. iOS can pick and resolve installed fonts. The app applies configured typography across settings, messages, previews, navigation, and composer views.

Summary
Font preference models and persistence apps/mobile/src/lib/mobileFonts.ts, apps/mobile/src/lib/mobileFonts.test.ts, apps/mobile/src/lib/fontFamilies.ts, apps/mobile/src/persistence/mobile-preferences.ts
Adds font roles, built-in options, selection and emphasis normalization, font resolution, installed-font reconciliation, and persisted font and size preferences. Tests cover normalization, resolution, fallbacks, and reconciliation.
Installed-font picker and native resolution apps/mobile/app.config.ts, apps/mobile/modules/t3-native-controls/ios/*, apps/mobile/src/native/installed-fonts.ts, apps/mobile/src/native/installed-fonts.test.ts
Adds the iOS user-font entitlement and native methods for resolving installed fonts and presenting a font picker. JavaScript exposes those methods when the native module supports them and tracks resolution requests.
Appearance preferences and controls apps/mobile/src/features/settings/appearance/*, apps/mobile/src/features/settings/SettingsAppearanceRouteScreen.tsx, docs/user/appearance.md
The appearance provider loads selected installed fonts and exposes resolved font and size preferences. The settings screen adds font controls, reply emphasis options, size controls, unavailable-font notices, and reset behavior. The preview and documentation reflect the font settings.
Typography in messages, previews, and composer apps/mobile/src/features/files/FileMarkdownPreview.tsx, apps/mobile/src/features/threads/*, apps/mobile/src/lib/useMobileNavigationTheme.ts, apps/mobile/src/native/*, apps/mobile/modules/t3-composer-editor/*, apps/mobile/global.css
Applies configured fonts and sizes to Markdown, navigation, and composer text. Composer font resolution changes on Android and iOS. Thread layout keys include typography inputs, and file-preview and composer test mocks provide font preferences.

Merge Risk: Minimal · up to 78c5f
The mobile font customization change shows no concrete merge-blocking risk in the supplied evidence. Android runtime behavior and some native rendering were not exercised, which is normal verification uncertainty.

Explanation
The description follows the template sections (Problem, Change, Scope, Verification). The Problem and Change sections clearly describe the feature. The Scope section links the replaced PR #21987 and explains the replacement. The Verification section lists checks and tests run, and it states what was not verified, including Android runtime and some iOS flows. The template asks for a conventional commit title, and the title meets that. The description has some verbosity and historical material, but the required information is present.

merged main into the existing head without rebasing and resolved the three conflicts. custom composer font sizing now uses main's shared composer metrics, preserving ios system text scaling. native font picker and file-preview state are both retained.
blacksmith vp run check:changed 1c8143cd09f3da9de093efee50856ef0b56fc61e passed: format, lint, knip, typecheck, five test files, and react compiler checks. two independent code reviews found no blocking issues. the three existing bot findings are already addressed and their threads are resolved.
native interaction and fresh visual evidence remain unverified: this environment reports "Agent device access is turned off for this environment." macroscope still requests human approval.
