A mobile app license permits the embedding of a font into the iOS or Android mobile platforms for a set number of titles and an unlimited number of installations. A license for a single title can be used to create both an iOS and Android version of an app. Learn more about licenses for mobile apps. Mar 09, 2016 Avenir isn’t even a supported font on Android, and at one point was the font of choice for Apple Maps and Siri. Members of the Avenir font family are also supported in OS X. Google Fonts is a library of free licensed font families and APIs for conveniently using the fonts via CSS and Android. We also provide delightful, beautifully crafted icons for common actions and items. Download them for use in your digital products for Android, iOS, and web.
If the font file has a TTF or OTF extension, you can physically copy it over to your PC and it will work there. However, that wouldn't be legal. The font family Avenir is licensed just like your operating system or your apps.
