What are Instagram fonts used for?
It makes it easier to create decorative text for your bio and display name.
Understand the concept and the difference between this style
The bio, display name and username all serve different purposes. The @ symbol is an identifier used in links and mentions, whilst the bio is a descriptive field.
How it works in practice
The design uses Unicode characters rather than altering Instagram’s native typography.
How to choose and assess the result
Write your bio, including your name, what you do and a useful piece of information, on separate lines; style just one section and check that it’s still easy to read on a mobile.
Tips on how to copy and make better use of it
The @ handle does not always accept the same characters as the bio.
The design should not obscure any text that explains your profile, contact details or activities.
How to style your bio without spoiling your profile
A bio usually combines a name, a description and a call to action. Use decorative characters only in short sections and keep contact details and essential information in plain text.
Username and display name
These are different fields: the @-username follows its own rules, whilst other fields may accept certain Unicode characters. Try it out on Instagram.
