Lets you know what font is used on any website
What Font allows you to know the font name, its family, color, style, size, position. Such a great tool to create designed web pages fastly. Now you can simply identify a liked font and select exactly the same for your needs without a long search for a suitable one. This extension supports Google API as a font finder, so you will have info about all popular Google Fonts.
As simple as just hovering the cursor to any word you want to fully inspect web fonts. Take the info about font name and color, style and position and more. Make up on the web page easily with What Font for quick inspecting web fonts.
Quick tips about how to use:
1. Click the extension icon to activate WhatFont and find all info about any font on the webpage. In order to exit What font you need to click the right top corner button "Exit What Font".
2. Simply navigate the cursor to any word you want and there will appear the font name
3. Click to the word to see detailed info about chosen font
4. Refresh previously opened pages to activate the extension.
Note: To make the extension work on a previously open page, refresh it first.
As easy as pie:
- Activate extension by clicking on its icon in the right-top. At first, click to the “Puzzle” icon to pin the needed extension on the bar.
- Move the mouse cursor to the desired font
- For more information click on the font
- To disable the functionality - click "Exit WhatFont" on the right-top of the browser.

- As of Dec 2021, I can report this extension works fine. I am not sure why so many people report it's not working. I will point out that "What Font - Find Font" is identical in functionality and appearance to the extension I suspect it's been forked (copied) from, which is "What Font" by Chengyin Liu. That extension has been available since for more than a decade, and has over 1 million users (https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/whatfont/jabopobgcpjmedljpbcaablpmlmfcogm?hl=en) The fact it's identical is why I give this extension only four stars. Yes, it works. But it's got nothing original to it. And there's something very obvious that could have been added in order to justify forking Liu's "What Font" and releasing it as a new extension ("What Font - Find Font"). To me the one important yet missing feature on Liu's "What Font" (and now this "What Font - Find Font" copy) is the that neither display the letter-spacing info (aka. 'kerning'). This is a rather important piece of info when it comes to typography analysis. Other than that missing feature, this works well (just like Liu's "What Font" works). But it has no particular advantage over the original "What Font" from Chengyin Liu.

- Lo probé hace un rato y hasta el momento me funcionó bien, antes había instalado otro que tenía el mismo nombre pero no me funcionaba con algunos sitios
- Leo Karabeg
- Strangely, this one works for me while others don't. But it generates an annoying error in the console when reloading a page, so it's a no-go for developers.

- 한글 폰트에 대해 정확한 폰트 파악이 안됩니다. 한 페이지에 영어 폰트, 한글 폰트(unicode-range 속성 사용해서) 따로 썼는데, 영어 폰트 이름만 나오네요. 업무용으로는 못쓸 것 같고, 개인적으로는 한 번쯤 써보셔도 괜찮을 것 같습니다.

- Wow! Works perfectly with more detailed info than I expected. I remember spending many many many hours 12 or so years ago online searching blindly every time I would stumble across the "perfect font" to use with my production company. Boy you kids these days got it easy with this extension🥰
- PAUL R FONTENOT
- If this extension works, I can't figure out how! I have tried every which way I know of to make it work but it just doesn't work! I have tested the 3 font finder extensions available on the Chrome web store side by side; this one did not work. What Font works! WhatFont doesn't! Plain & simple. Don't waste your time with this extension.
